So I've done what you said:

result : a tiny bit better but problem still there.

Just to say, in these tests I got the knock sensors wired to the ECU but not screwed to the block.

here is the map :

http://www.2shared.c.../RB30DET15.html

fuel map with some more injection timing.

here is the log :

http://www.2shared.c...9-04_2139_.html

Something very scary on the log, Full throttle with 0.5bar I take 60° of advance... about 25° when 50% throttle.

I was running always between 11 and 12 AFR, and about 500 to 600°Celsius max EGT.

Some more ideas ???

An update, I found i'm in the end of the load scale when I boost on full throttle so that must be why I have so much timing.

And also looking at my log, I find no boost at all all the time. But in this log I took up to around +0.5 bar of boost regarding my HKS EVC boost controller.

So it means my map sensor is dead... ??? it is the only wires that took hot with the fire... maybe the sensor took hot too... ??

Map sensor unplugged and guess what : The car works perfectly ! !

The man who'll map my car told me if the car works properly without the map sensor, just let it unplugged. It could prevent for new boost problem when high boosting.

Thanks for people in this topic for helping me. ;)

  • 3 weeks later...

A little shitty update.

Some days after have found the map sensor problem , I put my endoscopic camera to watch cylinders as I knew the engine must have knocked.

I found attached pictures that showed me my dead new forged engine. Lot of €uros spent out... :/

I discovered that my map sensor is still working. giving good values. and this untill the ECU wire. (don't know for now if the ECU plug works correctly.)

the nistune allways shows boost at 0psi when looking at logs.

The car runs bad as I told previously when boost sensor is plugged.

Car works correctly when i disconnect the plug OR the hose. quite strange I guess...

(I tried another map sensor and another ECU)

Another thing is that i have 5° sent out from ECU at idle. And I should have 15° as in all RB25DET's ...

Maybe it has something to do with the map sensor issue...

And I knocked that much because at the beginning I settled 15° on my CAS and I should have setteled 5° as ECU asked for.

So I had always 10° of timing more than I should.

I building a stock internals RB25 to replace the 30...

If someone has an idea for the map sesor and the 5° things... Don't hesitate !

I don't know about compressions as I haven't tested. But I guess they are stil ok as the cylinder aren't scratched vertically.

But the car began to rattle quite a bit those last kilometers. Some cylinders don't ignite often.

My Knock led lights as soon as I get 0.2 bar WOT.

Nistune Consult shows usual things :

1st: that TCS is unplugged.

2nd : boost sensor unplugged too.

Nothing more.

Have u logged gnition timing in consult to ensure the ignition is outputting what u are commanding in the timing map?

The pinging may be now due to the small pits on the pistons causing hot spots.

What spark plugs are u using?

I'm using NGK BKR7EIX

And yes I made a special timing map puting 15° of timing beginning at 1/4 throttle (20 of load) and 15° untill full load.

I still don't go over 3500rpm as it is knocking very hard now. (knock led lights full time at full load :/ )

The result is good because my ECU sends the 15° i asked to the sparks. (consult panel on nistune)

And has the CAS is well settled now, so no reason for OEM knock sensors to modify the timing... HUM... Actually, I know i'm knocking and the OEM knock sensor don't change the 15°... I find that weird...

Maybe my knock led light www.viatrack.ca doesn't speak good... but I settled it correctly I guess.

Or maybe it is bacause I haven't changed the "knock timing map" to less than 15°. the map is quite like RB25neo standard map.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
