hello guys. any reason why an rb25det,would run 20 degrees, carnt seem to get 15 no matter what i do, unplug TB./ tryed adjusting cas. tryed turning down aac valve, somone told me autos run 20. but i put manual in it.an tryed two different ecu's but still runs on 20degrees, according to data scans. any help would be great. carnt boost over 8-9psi with out cutting out.

tangles- i will check,but dont think so.-

adriano- just on basic conzult or datascan.nistune, not running nistune ecu yet but. tryed on sr20 and runs 15.

DVS32R- cuts like maf limits, so basicly cuts everything, soon as i go over 8-9psi. back off a fraction and comes to life again. just a fast cut out, was thinking timing was too high makeing things max. but doesnt do it under 8psi.

now im finding car can stop randomly and start straight back up- if i shake maf somtimes(not roughly) car will just stop.. and i have to restart it... could if be faulty maf. i grounded maf to chassis few weeks back and didnt do it again, stoping random that is. not the cut on boost.

turbo is ar 60-1.00, 3'' straight threw exchaust exchaust temp sensor not in cat,its just clamped to cat,was like that when got it.but dont think thats the cause.

big IC

pod

fpr

38mm external

i havent check to see what fuel pumps in it ethier,will very vry soon

i had an issue like this once !

built an rb26 .... for some reason the CAS sensor LOOKED like it was set to retarded ( far left ) but timing light was telling me 20degrees ... timing was obviously retarded ( CAS ussually sits in the middle for 20degrees... plus the engine revved retarded ... checked Timing belt again ... perfect !

timing light says 20degrees ..... got it dyno'd and timed instead at chasers. still no sure what happened to that car chasers motorsport didnt know either ( they checked TB and timing light also )

apprently the bracket the holds the CAS sensor in (behind timing case) fractures in rare cases. besides that :S id like to know whats going on !

still didnt get to the bottom of it , neither did chasers ( didnt spend to much time on it )

timing kept saying 20 ( obviously not 20 ) just played with the CAS on the dyno until we where happy :) lol funny engine

timing light loop that nissan recommends using can cause timing lights to read wrong, i had this happen the other week on a GTR, i didnt feel it was correct so i put a spark lead from the #1 coil pack to the #1 spark plug to check timing and it was 10 degrees different to the timing loop.

always best to use the spark plug trick

think it may be white wire near ignitor actually ....

That white wire on the two pin plug near igniter is coil pack positive power.

The Black/Pink wire on that two pin plug is Cylinder 1 fire signal wire (On R33 GTS-t S1)

ok will do that in the morning cheers, the timeing on conzult/datascan. That is reading ignition timeing right? thats what is at 20. should that be right.

in conzult,i can change timeing- the basic check.

such as check timeing cylinders,so on' i change timeing to -15.click and bam drops idle and accually sounds like where motor should run. but obusly i carnt burn to ecu. it doesnt stay at 15 when turn laptop off.

but in saying that,when i change it too -15. it reads 10 degrees on datascan??

no more when i do another timeing light read tomoz....cheers

The way it

Works is the consult timing shoukd say 15 ( or whatever te base timing is for ur engine) then u need to set the crank angle sensor timing to match the consult, u do this by using a timing light as i described above

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      Yeah, but knowledge of one wire's insulation worn through to short on earth implies the possibility of other wires doing the same. I had my power steering die, because the wire that runs to the solenoid valve on the rack runs in the same loom as the power wire for the O2 sensor. And when the O2 sensor/wire did something stupid and burnt part of that loom to death, the only indication was the shit(ter) fuel economy and the heavy steering. It took deep excavation of the looms in the bay to find the problem. Not wear through in that case, but similar shit.

      Ah, I thought he'd wired it to one of the spare ECU inputs! Too long ago since I read that post, ha ha. I've been arguing with radiators, harmonic balancers, alternators and rust since reading it.

      Correct. The ECU cannot read oil temp. (Well, I think it probably can in some situations. I did have the thought of potentially repinning the ECU when I was doing oil pressure). I am using this into the MPVI dongle, so that the MPVI dongle can read oil temperature. It is attached to a VDO gauge which is obviously calibrated to whatever curve the sender actually is using. This would be easy if I could setup a table of voltage to temperature like many sensors, but it appears I cannot do this and can only setup the transform rule which appears to be Input (voltage) x Multiplier, and add an offset. This to me means it MUST be linear. So it may be a complete waste of time wiring this into the ECU. The idea was that the MPVI3 has standalone logging. I wanted to use this instead of a laptop with serial cable (for wideband) for long datalogs. Given the wideband also has electric interference, I may never trust this either in a world where the serial wideband and the analog output wideband do not agree. Last time I did a trace I could see the two wideband traces follow each other, but one was a little leaner than the other. I plan on playing with voltage offsets and actually driving the thing to see how close they correlate. If they never correlate... then, well, maybe I'll never use either. Ideally I'd like to have the Analog wideband read ever so slightly leaner than the serial one, because the serial one is 'correct'. Tuning the car to be ever so slightly too-rich would be the aim. Not needing to have a laptop flying around in the footwell connected with cables is... an advantage. About the only one from the forced upgrade to MPVI3.

      Hopefully not, since he knows the fuses work ha ha ha

      I don't think he's got it on a gauge and on the ECU. I think he's got it on the gauge and on the HPTuners DAq thingo. Remember, we're talking about oil temp here, not something that the ECU is actually interested in for its own sake.
