Just blinked out the codes using the instructions in this link: http://www.gtr.co.uk/forum/123312-reading-ecu-fault-codes.html

5 long blinks, 5 fast blinks: No Malfunction

Time to turn my focus to the fuel system?

 

Am I not able to edit posts after a certain period of time?
 

At any rate, I will be testing fuel pressure at at the rail tonight or tomorrow, how much pressure should I see? 3 kg/cm2 (42psi)?

Edited by planrforrobert

Stock FP readings should be:

@ ignition switch ON:   approx 3.0 kg/cm2

@ Engine idling:   approx 2.5 kg/cm2

@ idling, disconnect vacuum hose at FPR:   approx 3.0 kg/cm2

A known good CAS landed at the shop today, installed it correctly...no change.  Will still crank and crank but no start.  Will be checking fuel pressure as well as testing to see if I have spark going to the coil packs tomorrow night.

So, progress!

Pushed the car into the shop tonight and was set on confirming I had spark and fuel. Started with fuel. Pulled feed line off fuel rail...it's dry. Did some testing of the pump wiring and everything pointed to the fuel pump being bad. To confirm the wiring wasn't the issue we pulled the pump out:

Used a power probe to try and run the pump out of the car, it's dead. I'll get a new pump on order and (hopefully) finally get to enjoy my car.

So that's how a properly-fed RB should run, haha.


New pump and tank gasket install was a breeze and the car fired up first try. It's like driving a brand new 25-year old car.  Throttle response is there and it pulls pulls pulls.  Thanks all for the help/insight suggestions!

Good to hear, mine is going they similar stage I started with the coil pack and did plugs too but not really much change, what kind of pump you get? And how much was it ?


I went with this pump:

Any Walbro 255 or similar pump will work, and wiring is very straightforward. I am by no means a savvy mechanic, but install took me about 45 minutes (and that included cleaning surface rust off the sending unit). Make sure to replace the tank seal if you're in there.

    • I'd be worried about having to parallel park a boat like that. Magnificent car though.
    • This car has run before on this z32 ecu can get the part number for you, I have tried with no AFM it didn’t change anything, I compression tested today 140-150 across all 6 cylinders, also set fuel pressure to 43psi. The only weird thing was cylinder 1 plug was black and fouled other 5 cylinders were just wet with fuel. Spun cas by hand and confirmed injectors are clicking 
    • Since you came here to ask for help, have you thought about answering our questions, that might help us lead you to why it was skipping, or have you given up on getting advice?
    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
