uploading a video now.taking awhile. i took pic of it sitting at idle. it idled quite well, but when i put my foot on the accelerator slightly the revs would drop a bit and it didnt sound like it was enjoying it to much and hesitated but once revs got up over 2000rpm it wasnt too bad. i wouldnt call the engine running either..just started lol its something and better then it not starting i suppose post-14097-0-49749300-1446103275_thumb.jpg

Going by the second video I'd say you've got a popped head gasket. Does it blow white smoke when you rev it? Looked like it was blowing white from that video. White=coolant entering combustion chamber.

Sounds dead average in the first video especially when it first fires. What is going on when you cranked it over, that noise was horrible.

when i was cranking it i had to pump on the accelerator to get it started. not sure why, would that be lack of fuel pressure ? or clogged fuel filter ? im changing that and oil etc. tomorrow .

probably still some old fuel in the tank too. it did blow a bit of white smoke but i could only see when my fiance video'd it. i did notice smoke when i looked behind me and revved it . cant rev it anymore due to stock ecu so cant do much till i get check the vipec ecu.

really struggled to start that time.first time i started it wasnt as bad

lmao i was thinking that too.really does sound like a lawn mower.it didnt sound like that in person though. it didnt sound all that bad in person once it was idling

if you watch the first video, at the end when i hit fuel cut at around 2500rpm you'll see smoke. i cant tell what colour it is personally.looks white to me

all coils are working with the stock ecu. i didnt try start it with the vipec since i knew it was only sparking on 1 or 2 cylinders. i changed all the spark plugs after i did the compression tests too.

derrr. I forgot you were running it with the stocker. Ignore me.

that's going to be a real bugger to rego if/when you get it running................if that's the way your going

I saw the front bumper/cooler area and thought much the same. No f**king way is it getting registered anywhere near like that.

i was going to put the stock twin turbo setup on it to pass rego lol but yeah i know it would be tough to get rego'd. i doubt its been engineered .how can i check ?

guy who had it before me had it on the road though.

i was going to change the turbo eventually anyway.dont want one that big. would prefer a low mount single turbo if it will fit

a lot of work and cost ahead for you

If it was engineered you would have received the certificate with purchase and it may have a mod plate

a lot of single turbo skylines on the road are not certified. They wait till they get booked

can you pm me the link on sau that you bought it from please

that's the exact answer i was hoping to hear lmao can't really test anything now untill battery arrives. was going to install my fpr but the screws threaded on the stock fpr . piece of shit screw driver !! know idea how im going to get that off. the fpr i got looks shit anyways i think i'll try for a refund :/

Get a refund. If there is anything wrong with yours I can send you an OEM fpr for free.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
