dose it jump start ok ???? if so check the charge rate on the battery with a multi meter. It should read read about 13.7 volts with all accessories on and lights. Than charge the battery and test it if is stuff could have a dead cell in the battery

Do you have a multi meter. If so check the voltage drop on the battery it shouldn't drop below 9.5 volts. if thats ok check the voltage drop onto the starter motor itself by testing the voltage at the starter main power feed wire and the earth on the battery. It could be as simple as a lose earth or power cable.

Yeah it could be that just pull a coil pack out with a plug in it and turn it over to see if you have spark. But if it dose not crank easily i be leaning towards the electrical side of things with the starter motor.

yes you need a tool called a noid light i dont know if thats how you spell it to see if the injectors are getting a signal or you can use a automotive stethoscope and listen to the injectors themselves to see if they are firing.

Ohh sorry i meant Beagle!, i had a similar problem but i was converting my s13 from ca18de auto to rb20det manual, and had no spark of injector pulse turned out to be a faulty loom, but i highly doubt it because ur car is stock and untouched well the loom is. so my next suggestion is get a mate with a 32 and swap cas over, that will control spark and injectors

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
