Whats the Rev limiter on a R34 Rb26???

I just bought my r32 gtr a little over a week ago and it has plenty of mods and Im trying to figure out everything that could possibly be done to this car that I dont know of. Heres a link to the car with known mods

So one of the biggest questions I am having is I have no idea if the block or head is built at all and the main reason im asking this is because I honestly do not think I have a rev limiter. She pulls SUPER hard and fast from 5500+rpm and before you know it im at 8k rpm and need to shift. Well today I kinda went too far and it hit 8500 and still no rev limiter (im not trying to rev it high it just goes from 5500-8k within a second or so and im still not used to the power). This is a chipped ECU that i plan on ditching within 6 months for a Haltech, but right now im confused. Was this motor possibly built to go 9k revs or something? I highly doubt whoever ECu tuned this thing would remove the rev limiter.

I currently want to buy a Zeitronix wideband data logger system and a Bee-R just to get me by for now so i dont blow my engine but at that point I might as well save up a bit more money and just go Haltech which will do both of the above with loads more.

Your thoughts?

Im in the USA and the car was bought from japan so no way of actually knowing what was all done. I know a lot of the stuff but this one is weird. Having a huge T04R turbo wouldnt it be weird to raise the rev limiter to an unsafe spot by the tuner? the power never falls off and keeps going.

I don't know about 34's but 32 tachos like to "exaggerate"

are the r32 clusters known to be off at high rpm?

Used to rev my 33 to 9500

Don't bother getting a bee r rev limiter, they are rubbish.
Take it to a tuner and just get them to check it out. Also if you are unsure, play it safe and don't rev this shit out of it until you get it all sorted

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      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.
