Hey guys,

I'm going to be doing an engine transfer soon and i have a few questions regarding sa rego.

Firstly i am transfering it from an RB25DE to an RB25DET. I get the same engine plate and compliance plate with the engine im putting in. So what should i do? Is there a way to declare this with Motoreg? and no engine plate transfer is required or will i need to go to regency and get it checked? is there a person who re-stamps engine plates and i can get away with it?

It's not a problem for me to go to Regency but i would rather get a way out which would be easier seeing that i have all the resources available.

Cheers

all Club Members should of received a copy of the Club Constitution here are just a couple of clauses for your perusal

now I'm hoping most of the plate swapping talk was said tongue in cheek but it has to be taken very seriously as its a prosecutable offense and could bring the club into disrepute

28.11 All members shall abide by the constitution and decisions made by the committee of the club.

30.3 A member may be expelled from the club in accordance with the disciplinary rules of the club.

30.4 Membership shall be forfeited through:

1. Misappropriation of club property or funds

2. For any act which is deemed detrimental to the reputation of the club

3. Contravening any section of the constitution or decisions of the club

4. At the committees discretion upon a review of their performance.

30.5 No refund of fees or donations to the club shall be given out if a member resigns or is expelled from the club.

30.6 Any person forfeiting membership must return the club property and club card in seven (7) days.

31.0 MISCONDUCT

31.1 Any member of the club may be disciplined, suspended or expelled by the Committee.

if any member hasn't received a copy of the Constitution speak up and one of the Committee Members will see to it your revive an email

Not only is it illegal, it's stupid. If you get caught, nice knowing you. If you don't have the money to stuff around and go to Regency, perhaps you should reassess your choice of vehicle. Also posting up on here about plate swapping is not the smartest of moves. These forums are monitored

Yeah, what the guys are saying is that the police do monitor these forums. Now you're talking about plate swapping (which you know by now is illegal) and the cops can easily see you are a club member. As your club executives, we have to say to you that its illegal and that would look bad for the club. We are afterall trying to demonstrate to the police and Joe Public that we are responsible import owners.

Nothing wrong with doing the conversion to turbo. Just swap the engines, and other suitable hardware (brakes etc) and then take the car thru Regency without the plate swapping. Plate swapping = very bad :)

:D

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      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.

      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.
