i havnt had an engine light on the F-CON since i cleared up my water damage in my harness.

clear dash except the airbag one :verymad:

No engine light since resetting mine, I have done over 1000ks now. :)

thanks for the offer Russell but I'll see how it goes for now haven't had any drama's yet and I've put my old afm back in.

the problem with Scotty's afm is I'll need to get a retune anyways :( or put a resistor on it to get the correct values like the stock one.

Why haven't you gone to a MAP sensor tune yet?

Did you check the muffler bearings? Also, last time i was in your car; there was definitely a loose nut behind the steering wheel...

Haven't updated for a while not that I've really done much to it lately but did take it out to SMSP South Circuit again and managed to knock off another second off my lap time with a 1:08.26.

Okay i have a strange metal on metal scrapping noise its been driving me mad for a few months coming from the front passengers side.

firstly it does it mainly when coasting along as soon as you hit the throttle even a little bit it stops, and doesnt really make a difference if its loaded or unloaded.

so far I've checked the brakes, even went as far as pulling them off to inspect them. (sounded like a stone could've been stuck in it but wasn't) BTW i checked this multipul times.

then i bit the bullet and replaced the wheel bearing as its probably copped a hiding especially on the ripple strips at the track but the noise was still there.

next i thought I'd get the disc machined just in case, no difference.

still looking i thought the only other thing it could be would be the CV / drive shaft so i replaced that as well with no avail.

got to thinking maybe the front diff was on the way out and transmitting the noise out onto the wheel so i drained the fluid and everything looked pretty typical no major metal fillings and the fluid looked pretty clean.

so just incase its got anything to do with the gearbox I'm currently replacing the fluid in that as well ( doesn't go astray as its probably been 4 years since it was changed and i mainly drive in manual mode)

now I'm out of idea's and its driving me mad!!!

maybe the new wheel bearing was pressed in badly i dunno but it made the same sound minutes after it was changed from the old one.......


please i need your help before i go nuts!!!

You tried putting it up on stands and hunting out where the noise is coming from?

My first thoughts was disc rubbing on stone shield or even the bottom hub alloy thing.

I know my GTR discs rubbed on them before I adjusted them...

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By Duncan · Posted

      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

      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.
