Hi guys,

This is my very first car, bought new in 2001 as a present. For sentimental reasons I have not sold it.

It has been unregistered for the past few years however I hope to get it going soon.

In 2004 I swapped the motor to a 6A12 MIVEC. In 2006 it has been fully rebuilt, balanced rotating assembly, ported & polished heads, race tuned HPC coated extractors, 2.5" mandrel bent exhaust, ported intake runners, bored plenum, 5mm oversize TB , raised compression ratio, FPR and an e-manage to tune it.

Gearbox is a JDM Cyborg RS short ratio box + Cusco 1.5 way LSD, Exedy HD clutch and a rally spec quickshifter

Suspension consists of Tein SS coilovers, whiteline strut braces, F&R adjustable swaybars, adjustable spherical links for the swaybars, and every single bush has been upgraded to Superpro items. Tires are 205-45-16 Bridgestone S-02.

Brakes are Evo III all round, FTO booster and master cylinder.

Interior is black MR, JDM dashboard, JDM climate control, FTO instrument cluster, black suede Integra Type R Recaro seats on Evo VI rails, Razo gearknob, and an Isotta steering wheel.

I have other cars now and hence this one has been ignored a bit but it has always been a lot of fun to drive hence my rekindled interest in it. My future plans include deleting the bodykit, new wheels and semi slick tires and maybe using it as a track car.

There are no power figures as out of compulsion after the engine was rebuilt the car was put into storage and has not moved in years.

      I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.

      @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation.

      If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.

      I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.

      AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
