Been to Midland once, got the initial inspection and they told me what I had to fix, I did none of it except replace my racing pedals (didn't have stock accelerator pedal so drilled on a stock Falcon brake pedal), passed when I took it back lol.

I returned my car to 'stock', standard wheels, standard exhaust (but gt-rs turbo hehe). Got told when I got there that I still had to do IM240 and 5 gas.

Me: "Oh but I rang the DPI and the lady told me returning it to stock would be fine, I've spent 10k (cough) already doing this"

The inspector mumbled something, went and talked to his supervisor, and said "Ok, since the IM240 isn't really running we'll sign off on the car"

I pretty much did the macarena right then and there.

"Changed engines hey?"

"Yeah snapped the old one"

*notes down RB30xxxxxx*

"Can I take it for a drive?"

"Sure, go for it"

*smoke a couple of smokes while waiting*

"How'd it go?"

"Yeah good, thanks for that, I love skylines!"

*Drive home with licensed RB30DET*

:(

Lol awesome. Did you get the guys name? I got the name of the guy that inspected mine but now I've forgotten it :D Pretty sure it was the supervisor though, the other inspectors seemed to be going to him and asking him questions and things...

    • 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
    • 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.
