Hey guys

i have relocated the fuse box in my r33 gtst under the dash. So the only wires in the engine bay is the lights and engine harness.

When i connect the battery the front parkers light up and stay on, like its been connected to a constant power, also the wipers stay on too.

With that the car doesn't start and has no spark. i have checked all the fuses and relays and nothing is blown. i have made sure all the earths have good grounds.

The car cranks but won't start, the Microtech red warning light flashes when its in ignition.

Any other ideas?? i will most likely unwrap the wiring to see if something is connected to the wrong wires or shorting out but before i do that would anyone know what else to check before i make a mess with the wiring?

Cheers Moe

We can't match the wires up by colour we arent there. Your just going to have to get the multimeter out and start tracing wires

Sounds like you have wired the park lights and/or wipers possibly to an ECU power supply. Not real sure but something is definently hooked up wrong

Sorry i mis-red Bens comment.

The question was on the last sentence of my post;

Any other ideas?? i will most likely unwrap the wiring to see if something is connected to the wrong wires or shorting out but before i do that would anyone know what else to check before i make a mess with the wiring?

if anyone came across this problem would be great to know what they did wrong so i can check before i check all my wiring.

But in saying that i got my hands on a multi meter and will be testing it out tonight

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
