Thanks Ben. I have put a timing light on it when it is cranking and it is in the middle of the timing marks I think there is six and it's in the middle. Can I pull the injectors out and then pull the cas out and turn the cas to make the injectors spray full just so I can see there spray pattern. I know they are all clicking when activated.

Yes you can

I think it is worth checking that the cam timing is correct before you go too much further. If that is correct, set the engine to TDC compression on number 1 cylinder and set the CAS so the spark is firing at number 1 plug. If it doesn't fire using Start Using Bastard, I don't think the problem is fuel related.

Okay guys so I pulled the fuel rail off again. And had my Mazda 3 running and stole a vacuum line of that to the fuel reg on the skyline. It turnt the cas and the injectors a clicking and there fuel getting to the rail but I don't think it's getting pass the regulator! Could this be the fault or at I missing something. There's only one vacuum line coming off the fuel reg! I've also got the return line off the fuel rail and there's no fuel coming out the return with the key on. But the pump is loud and I know there's 6 bar of pressure there.

It has already been suggested that you could have the fuel lines around the wrong way on the reg.

So swap them

Hmmmmmm

You do not need to hook the reg up to vacuum for it to work

The vacuum/boost supply changes the pressure to suit what the car is doing. More boost = more fuel pressure. Without the Vac line doing anything you will have what is called base pressure

I think its already been suggested but just in case. Fuel pump line should go to filter then to rail then from regulator to fuel return

Okay guys I really was hoping not to have to post in here again but I need your help again. I am very embarrassed to admit but yes Ben you were right I had the fuel lines around the wrong way! Was spewing when it fire over straight away. But now onto the next problem. I have got it idling fine and sounds really nice but it is in limp mode after I drove it 500 metres up the road. I have checked all vaccum lines and Intercooler lines and they are all on. I did find a small vaccum line behind my glove box that wasn't hooked up to anything so I blocked it with a screw. I've triple checked every single plug and also tried the afm with the second one I have. I've also check for fault codes and I'm get 55 witch means everything is fine :/ Again sorry for the late response guys.

    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go.
