Car used to not start randomly after I bought it but would start eventually...., owner said coilpacks were getting hot.. So about a month ago on this hot day, the car would hardley idle, no power sputtering ect after driving for a while. it was absolute balls unless I let it sit for about 5 mins OFF. Then would start but problem would rrepeat every few kms. Coil packs were black as ash burnt out it seemed, so I put new yellow jackets and and new fuel pump and the coilpack loom from my gtr since the rb20 one was falling apart. And then the new fuel pump wass poping off the fuel filter..... Hose was shit around the edges. So after all this car is sweet started every time no stalls nothing drove nice skidded nice ect

Last week or so coming up to lights the revs will drop to about 500 and run stay there but not stall, when a/c is on its normal 850 ish,

Yesterday car died randomly at about 80km but it turned back on once I pulled overy and cranked it.

Drove to home and now won't start,

I have power

I dont have fuel getting pumped

It cranks but no combustion

I put the older pump in which works( connected it to power) but still nothin

I'm about to change o2 sensor

I'm also sus about the fuel pressure regs one has been changed its a nismo one with the bolt on the end.

I'm stuck Im usually fairly good with cars but this has got me f**ked, I've read some earths ect may be cause but all mine seem fine.

Any help would be much appreciated

O2 sensor has nothing to do with starting. Take off cas and turn by hand, with ignition on. check If coils are sparking, inectors clicking. fuel pump on etc

fixed.. after new pump, new relay, checking fuses ect. i found out it was a burnt out pin/wire in the boot. the plug looked perfectly fine but when i opened it up properly it had burnt it self apart from the pin or whateva so one wire wasnt sending a signal or power. this would explain sometimes starting sometime not.


such a fluke to find aswell. fml cars allright now. thanks for all your help and info guys. much appreciated.

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
