Hi I just replaced the head and installed a set of Tomei cams and my car will not start, I had to use a neo crank angle sensor due to the key way on the cam but i managed to rig up the old sensor with the new key way with the same results. All my Timing marks line up 100 percent on the crank and 2 cams and i have replaced plugs checked for fuel and even tried a timing light while cranking. I have a emanage computer which tells me that the car while trying to start is sitting on 172rpm and timing is at 18 degress. I have pulled the plugs out and have seen the plugs firing and also seen fuel going into the bore. I did have a fuse blow while the wiring was changed for the crank angle sensor but that has since been replaced i have also gone through my car with the muilti meter and have not found any other blown fuses. I am using standard cam gears not aftermarket so they can only be installed one way. Anyones help would be greatly appreciated The car will not even try to start it only turns over and over .....whilst getting fuel and spark....

I am currently waiting on the nissan consult software and cable to verify timing but the location of the sensor was exactly in the same position. also adjusting didnt seem to do much either i am currently waiting on another cas

Cranking revs seem a bit low (300 would be better), and RBs seem to like LOTS of timing (around 45 deg) to start.

Also, you have probably now flooded the engine. You need to crank with WOT until it fires.

My car always fired up when it was hitting 44 degrees timing, now it never starts first time when cold and only hits 25 degrees. Do you just use map tracer and see what cells are used during cranking and up them?

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
