i changed the ecu with the auto one now i have power and reds on thr dash but car kranks but wont start now i think it might have something to do with neutral switch does anyone no where to bridge this or what is stopping it from starting???

also i have had a thought that when the clutch fan ceased could it have caused some error code not sure which one but maybe this is what causeing my timing retarding i have since reset it and diagnosed it so hopefuly it comes good

Sound like your clutch is slipping.

If what you said in the first post i correct - gets to 5k Rpm then just starts dead revving - thats the clutch slipping...

Maybe im missing something, the reason it wont do it 1st run out is because it has had time to cool down...

the clutch was done a month before i got the car its and excedy cushion button clutch also does not explain the error code

dont get me wrong the clutch sliping could be a posibility but normally with clutch slip your revs will go up because the engine cannont transfer power thru the box to the wheels

now when i say dead reving i mean the car keeps reving but the reving slows down and you can feel the power drop off

By dead revving I thought you meant revving but not making power?

Do you mean that it won't rev past 5500 rpm? like it hits wall?

its like when you go past redline the car continues to rev but the power starts to drop off and with this comesa the boost creep its like the timing is being retarded

i tried putting just an\ auto ecu but it wouldn start my car and i dont no why unless there is a neutral switch that has to be bridged but being a factory manual you would think it wouldn have one???

alright i just put a manual ecu in and the problem is still there but its a lot less noticble althought i think it has something to do with the aggresive ness of the timing of the mines ecu does anyone no if the knock sensors can be cleaned or something

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
