Nothing yet, had 5 different auto electricians come to my mechanic and none of them know, dont wanna know since its an import. Been to busy at work to chase this up christmas rush is killing us. Only update now is engine light wont turn on fuel tank doesnt prime so no spark at all. Gonna do a search now for stagea electric info and english version for the fuse box.

That sounds like ur losing 12v to the ecu when cranking, if ur ecu isn't getting power then u won't get the fuel pump to prime, u'll get no spark or injector pulse.

Yeah computer died, tuner replaced it and car started straight away but he reckons what your saying something shorting it and it may happen again. Any ideas on what to directly check for as cpu is now not covered by warranty if this happens again

Glad to see u got ur car going again, as for what's causing it there are many possibilities, bad earth is a common cause of things shorting out, broken wires, have u done anything electrical to the car lately? Install something ,remove something? Make sure that the connection to the computer is on properly and the bolt done up, check all connector to igniter,coils may ect. Make sure battery terminals are tight and in good order. Also make sure u have the correct fuse amp fuses in the fuse box, someone may have put a higher amp fuse in there cause they had nothing else, if my memory serves me correctly its 10a for the ecu. Good luck with it, hope for ur sake it don't happen again. Where bouts u located?

Sydney. Nah the only thing electrical done to the car was get tuner to put ecu with nistune map on it and z32 afm. My original computer is now back on with the same nistune map installed and same tune, cas was also swapped as that was burnt out. Car is running really well now just picked it up and took it for a quick spin. Will look over everything shortly and make sure nothing else is loose, it has been looked over though quite a few times. Thanks for all the help

    • That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.
    • They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!
    • I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.
    • Define "starting to fail". Wy not just rebuild them?
    • Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
