Idling then dies

IDLING ISSUES!!
Hey guys, I have a 1994 r33 gts25t auto (rb25det). On cold start I have to use the throttle to get it going and use the throttle to warm it up. When it's warm 5 mins later I release the throttle for it to idle and it slowly dies. Start it back up with no throttle and she runs mint for 30 seconds then it dies again. Within that 30 seconds I can touch the throttle and it will idle until 30 seconds is up then again....it dies. Try to blip the throttle after that 30 seconds and it dies again. I have...

Resoldered the afm and fitted another working afm.
Replaced aac valve.
Set tps to .45V.
Fitted another relay for a constant 12V to the fuel pump.
Opened up cold start valve and it was clean as.
Vacuum tested the intake and no leaks occurred.

Removed and cleaned throttle body right up.
Checked ecu for codes, nothing appeared.
Replaced temp sensor.
BCPR6ES gapped to .8.
Cleaned cam angle sensor.
Checked ecu for any burn or corroded connections inside.

 

Anyone please help me if they have had this issue, I've never heard of it happening.

I pressurized the inlet system for any vacuum leaks and there aren't any, visually looked at all the lines also.

 

While driving I have to double foot it so it won't die at lower speeds and stopping. (Just the same idling issue) I feel like something is drawing the current iswell because it won't start after a couple days of not starting. It slow cranks when that happens but then some times it's starts up ? it is charging, I checked with a multi meter. Maybe need to do another test of some sort? 

Pressure test the fuel system. FPRs rarely fail but good to check. have you replaced the fuel filter in the engine bay? Long shot if you can swap out the ecu with someone just to eliminate that as a problem.

    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
