Hi, have a series one r33 gtst have just fitted a z32 afm, a rb20 ecu with nistune board.

The car has fuel at the injectors, brand new splitfire coilpacks, brand new plugs and cranks over fine, it will just not fire.

Now i Know the ecu is a direct fit BUT the VCT sensor is no longer in use, do i need to earth this to bypass it?

What else can i check? i have been over every sensor...this car was also running a week ago!

any help would be greatly appreciated

thanks guys!

People were saying there was 2 wires you had to swap but on the inside of the ecu these are connected any way.

Also the ecu was meant to have a safe map loaded in to suit the new injectors and the z32 afm...but after all the stuff arounds ive been getting, i''m starting to think they possibly skipped this step.

every sensor is back in place, the car ran fine a week ago but now nothing.

thanks for the help, bring on anymore!

nope, rb20 ecu should run a rb25 without mods, but just wont run well.

Im thinkin maybe something went wrong while loading up the map!

Are you sure?

I'm just saying because I had to switch mine around using a rb25 ecu on a rb20

    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
    • Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
