Hey all, Have a bit of an issue with this friggen r31.

When the car is switched to the on position, the ECU LED lights up. Fuel pump primes.

When im cranking the engine, the LED on the ECU goes out, although the starter motor is still cranking, the plugs are sparking and the injectors are pulsing.

The car of course wont kick over, just pops everynow and then.

Does anyone have any ideas why this would be happening? Ive had it wired up by a mate and he is saying that everything should be fine?!?

Cheers in advance, Jon

What exactly did u get re-wired??

Sounds like a CAS issue to me..

Check firing order is correct, on injectors and plugs.. also that you are triggering at the right position, not 180 degrees out(if you've had the dizzy out and moved the engine).. have you checked that you are getting fuel out the injectors.. not something simple like a blocked fuel filter??

Edit: sorry i didn't see thr RB26 part..

so don't worry about the dizzy part.. lol..

Check that the coils are firing in the correct order

Edited by axe s

pull the cas out and turn it round while the key is set to on

you should be able to hear the injectors fire off 6 times per rotation

which end of the state are you at mate?

sounds like your timings wrong or you have no fuel pressure mate.

Do you have 12V at the injectors? Even if they are pulsing from the ECU they need a 12v feed to function, this caught me out both times I've wired an RB25DET into R31's. There is a big grey ugly plug which you won’t have anything to connect to that needs a loop back for power. Just stick a multimeter on your injectors with the ignition on and see if they have 12v, if not I can tell you what you need to wire up.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
