What pump are you running that the stock fuel pump wiring wasn't doing the job? Is the RB20 wiring different to the RB25?

Walbro 460Ltr - need to wire in the direct 12v with relay thingo. The standard fuel pump control module couldn't provide enough current.

I spose the fact that this has only been documented on SAU 11ty billion times and not 11ty billion and 1 explains why you didn't just do it properly the first time :P

 

Pretty sure my brother went through 2 or 3 040's and changed to Walbro with no such issue? dunno. e85 lyf.

Pat gotta feel good driving it again I'm guessing, must be an animal with an RB25 in it now. 

The 465's will mangle the stock wiring, almost need to just direct wire it and bypass all the nissan stuff.

Used about 185L of fuel to get to Winton and do a track day and get back. The auto is not 'that bad' at cruising, maybe 400L for a tank but driving around town with my 5 minute commute to work just annihilates fuel. I drive like a grandpa so I am almost always in the converter (i.e under 3k rpm)

Couldn't run more than 10psi of boost due to wild breakdown of spark, and rotors ended up looking like the below, (yeah the vanes are supposed to go much further...) but had a great time for first time out at Winton :P

Well not so much worn down as worn completely through and past where they would normally stop.. other rotor looked much the same. Only noticed due to the sound of grinding on the drive home lol.

Would recommend, mainly because you know they won't fall apart under normal circumstances!

Speaking of brakes, checked out the 2018 STI over the weekend at the dealership, was froffin at the mouth when I saw the new for 2018 model's bright green 6 pot brembos, looked so good against the WR blue colour. 

 

I'm surprised it limits the current available... Usually things draw whatever current they want but melt or destroy whatever it is its going through (if not rated for the task)

The fuel pump resistor was burning hot. We bypassed it but still can't provide enough current.

I'm running in new engine below 4000rpm so no massive draw on fuel pump atm

Effortless power in the Neo rb25. Can't wait to dial in 25psi

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
