im in the process of my rb25 neo swap and everything is done, its just a matter of wiring and getting it to start up. the r34 engine harness is all set up to plug into the r32 chassis wiring. i cant figure out my my fuel pump fuse keeps blowing. ive gone through three 15amp and one 20amp fuses.

im completely stumped as to why it keeps blowing. it worked fine with the rb20 installed. the only part of the circuit ive tampered with is the ecu fuel pump relay wire on the engine harness and that's now hooked up to were the rb20 fuel pump relay wire was connected to the chassis wiring so it should be fine. the signal voltage seems to be good and everything but after a second or 2 the fuse blows...

any ideas? anyone that's done a rb25 swap run into this problem??

Is there a difference between the way R32's and R34's control the pump? The resistor pack for the fuel pump may be different, I'm sorry I cant be much more help then that but I had a funny feeling there was a difference somewhere there. Not sure if that will be the problem but

i have no idea, and im stumped. everything worked fine before, now with the r34 ecu it doesnt wanna work

im hoping there's someone on here thats put a neo into a r32 and can help me out a bit

so after measuring some voltages on the relay pins i think the ecu isnt sending the signal to ground the pump relay. i checked both the r32 wiring and r34 wiring and they are the exact same for the fuel pump. any ideas why the ecu wouldnt be sending the signal?

could someone take a multimeter to there car and read the voltage or resistance on the fuel pump relay pin on ecu? that would be a huge help because then i would at least know what to aim for

well they dont look the same but if you trace the wires, its exactly the same. the pins are in different spot on the ecu plugs but should be doing the same job. it might be the drop resistor your talking about, anybody know where it is?

Get rid of the fuel pump control module for a start. Hard wire the fuel pump negative terminal to ground.

Ignore pin 111 on the ECU. Your only concern is pin 13. This grounds the fuel pump relay. On ignition on it grounds the relay for 4 seconds. When CAS signal is seen the ECU grounds this pin full time. When it isn't grounded you'll see an open circuit/high resistance.

If your fuse is constantly blowing find the short. DO NOT put bigger fuses in, you'll start melting your wiring. Bigger fuses are not the answer to a fuse that keeps blowing.

    • If they can dyno them, get them dyno'd, make sure they're not leaking, and if they look okay on the dyno and are performing relatively well, put them in the car.   If they're leaking oil etc, and you feel so inclined, open them up yourself and see what you can do to fix it. The main thing you're trying to do is replace the parts that perish, like seals. You're not attempting to change the valving. You might even be able to find somewhere that has the Tein parts/rebuild kit if you dig hard.
    • Can you also make sure the invoices on the box (And none exist in the boxes) are below our import duty limits... I jest, there's nothing I need to actually purchase and order in. (Unless you can find me a rear diff carrier, brand new, for stupidly cheap, that is for a Toyota Landcruiser, HZJ105R GXL, 2000 year model...)  
    • Murphy strikes again! Nothing at all would have gone wrong if you had the tool kit in the car! You'd have just found the clamp loose the next time you went to touch it...
    • I have been being VERY quiet about what you're alluding to, as it is something that ticks me off... The number of cars from factory that run coil overs is HUGE! Most of them these days do... The other part that annoys me, is people saying "Well all the incabin adjustable suspension is illegal by blah blah blah"... If that's the case, then why can I buy a car brand new that can do it if, FULL STOP in cabin adjustable suspension is illegal...   Also, I could just chuck some aftermarket shocks in my car, throw the stock springs on, after my blue slip, dump my super low springs back in. Same shock and spring style setup... Hell, they could also be the same colour springs etc.     I'm voting, BlueSlipper didn't want to touch the above car for some reason. Whether it be some sort of bias against the car, the owner, them maybe having previously done dodgy shit and now they're being super careful in case they get slapped in the face by the Gumbyment again... Find a new blueslip place.   And can confirm as you had said, yes there are holy bibles of vehicle heights, and all sorts of other suspension stuff. Heck your run of the mill mechanic, and tyre shop has access to all of that stuff. It's how they do wheel alignments...
    • Funny story Heading to Sydney this morning on the HWY there was some slow traffic, so I gave it the beans and midway through my overtaking "power run" I lost all power It seems that I missed a hose clamp,  and the MAF and filter went WiFi To make this more problematic, the little tool kit that lives in the boot, is sitting in the sun room at Goulburn......LOL Luckily for me I found a bit of steel on the side of the road that could be used like a rusty and bent flat head screw driver to tighten it up enough that it got me into Sydney, it is now all tight like a tiger with the aid of a 8mm socket Note to self: Use my brain and double check stuff, and always keep that little tool kit in the car for when I have a brain fart
