rego: until april 2010

accident history: none that i am aware of. has small scrape on front drivers corner of bumper and small dent in under front bar (probably from a parking lot gutter or something....anyways it isnt major and i ddint do it)

comments: champion little vehicle. no it doesnt go fast. no it wont make chicks wanna sleep with you. yes it uses a bit of oil and water (its a mitsubishi duhh) no you cant fit a rb26dett under the bonnet, it doesnt use much fuel, and i havent been able to fault it since purchase.

starts first time, everytime

rides well

excellent run around car

bad bits:

rotors need machining soon

car has a new tappet cover gasket but still weeps a bit of oil, maybe it wasnt seated properly i dunno, or maybe it just a mitsubishi thing?

its only a 3 speed auto lol

couple of seems of rust starting to appear along bottom insides of doors (cant get my finger of screwdriver into them yet so not that bad)

has small air leaks around back doors (doesnt leak water, but may annoy some people, i dunno, i used it as air con haha)

it only an EOI atm, but if my coupes passes engineering on friday (it will) then ill take monies then.

redbook value these between 1000 and 2200.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
