update all...

while scouring the internet, i found something today...

when i purchased this car - i looked at the paint, and the 1-off bodykit, and the IS F exhaust, and the interior...

and thought

no way would a japanese shop / owner go THAT FAR with car mods, then drive it around on those BULL SHIT 17" wheels.

i had my theory that the owner sold the car, kept his high spec stereo, and put on some cheap 17" wheels he had lieing around so that he could keep the wheels n sell the car

well

look what i found...

Lpack = top of the range,

you get access to many more options with Lpackage but the staples are the woodgrain dash, TEMS suspension (not applicable due to coilover setup - and incase you don't know, TEMS = a button you press, you want relaxed soft suspension, push the button and it handles like commo / falcon easy rider stuff, you push the tems button again and suspension goes stiff for more "spirited" drive

what is now called elec damper control i suppose - except understand this is a car designed n built in the 1990's... so very impressive for it's age...

oh also the dash has a touchscreen stereo, tv, dvd, gps and satnav station (again not applicable because prev owner retained his aftermarket stereo so i have to buy a newie - which iw as going to do anyway, again... lpackage stereo was very impressive tech for a 90's car but nowadays is out dated

but staples for me are - sunroof (which is optional) and woodgrain (which haters can hate but i like the woodgrain with my gaudy burgundy interior) and full electric seats (slide / tilt / lumbar support with memory settings)

btw - guys if you think my aftermarket sc430 retrim is foul

check out the lexus sc430 eternal jewel interior (final run of sc430)

of which production finishes this month

    • 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. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂
