well the price will come down to how long it takes them to find the problem. and then how it needs to be fixed and at what cost.

Sorry i havent used any of the workshops here so cant help. If that is the way you want to go get them to get the car running and if you have money left over do the service, if not the collective minds here can do it easy. If its moving it will make easier to get to someones place/w/shop for a meet up.

Ok, got a bad vibe from Auto Italia and all-star are booked out for at least 2 weeks, I ended out booking JPC in oz park for next Monday. How exciting!! :) I'll keep u guys posted with what the issue ends out being. Otherwise WhightNight27, what should I look for with the pump? Or your welcome to have a bash sometime if your keen, Im pretty sure Boss inspected it so maybe the fuel filters blocked. I don't nooo.

Peace.

Jesse.

Why dont u change ur fuel filter could be blocked but not think it would cause that much trouble unless its 95% blocked. witch it could be if its never been changed.

Its not hard to change and not cost much for the filter ether.

Think i remb u saying that u could not hear the pump prime any more or it was quieter.

First i would see if u can hear it. if so then remove the rubber hose from the fuel rail and see if its getting fuel up to the rail.

If that's ok then do what t revz said crimping the return fuel hose to add fuel pressure.

any how hope u get it sorted

Hey guys, fitted my new oil filter but couldn't work out which hose is the fuel hose on the injector rail. Can anyone describe where it is or tell me what page of the manual it's on? Much appreciated. Also, as far as crimping the return hose, that's located under the duel pumps inspection cover in the boot, correct?

I wanna have one last go and anyone else is welcome before it goes in on Monday.

Ta people.

the hose coming out of the fuel filter is the feed from the pump.

the hose coming off the fuel reg is the return, crimp it slightly anywhere after the reg to up the pressure.

No good guys, no good at all..... Turns out the ecu wasn't plugged in and switched on properly(?!) and the fuel was off(half tank that had apparently sat for 4 months before I purchased plus fresh half tank plus injector cleaner).

Big problem its got a big end rattle. Apparently this means a 10-12k rebuild or 6-8k engine swap. Does anyone have any suggestions other than sell the car? :( I think you went through this Nak, what's the dealio?

Cheers.

A sad Jesse.

Cheers boys,

Is everyone in agreement about price? 6k for an r33 engine? Seems.... Extensive..?

Talk to Steve May as I reckon it will be well cheaper than 6k.

There will probably be a bunch of stuff that you should do before you put it in for peace of mind though, I would be inclined to do timing belt/tensioner/idler/waterpump and all the vacuum hoses.

You probably sell the current engine to recoup some of the costs too.

Cheers for all the help guys.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
