Hey guys, so i am putting a rb25det neo into my cefiro but have run into problems with the wiring and not starting. I have checked all the wiring and powers and earths multiple times but cannot seem to find anything wrong. I seem to have spark from the coils fine but for some reason the injectors do not pulse at all. I have checked with another set of injectors but still no pulse. There doesnt seem to be any error codes either. I have also tested the signals from the CAS and confirmed that it is working correctly and tested continuity to the ecu. Is there something i am missing that could stop it from starting up? I also have a spare ECU from a neo stagea as well that also does the exact same things.

Are you using the ecu and loom from the Neo motor? Do you have power to the injectors (they earth through the ecu)

Do you have the original CAS  for the Neo motor? Is your Ceffie auto or manual or has it just been converted (in which case you have to short out the switch that stops you from starting it in gear).

Yep using all the neo loom and ecu. Got a 12v ign feed to the injectors and have the original CAS but also have 2 others to test with as well. My cef was auto but been converted and have got the neutral relay bridged. 

So it turns over but does not fire? 

1. Check 12v at injectors and Continuity back to the ecu on the ground side. 

2. Remove CAS and plug in, spin it and listen for injectors pulsing. 

3. If the above is good, Check fuel pump is priming. 

4. If pump is priming, fuel lines are backwards.

Yeah well thats where im really stumped on this, i have checked continuity from injectors to ecu and thats allgood but when i spin the CAS by hand only the coils fire. Ive tested the signals from the CAS for the 1 and 120 degree signals and confirmed that is working correctly and even tested it at the actual pins on the ECU as well. The fuel pump is priming and i have checked that the lines are the right way round.

May be worth getting a hold of a consult cable & download consult software. See if there are any codes of errors. Besides testing another ecu.

Yeah i have actually got one, it shows a code for knock sensor because i havnt got the plugs for them. Would that stop it from starting up?

No, it should still turn over.
I would be talking with who made the loom as if both ecus are not firing injectors thats rare for 2 fried ecus. The loom could also have a an issue damaging the ecu.
Probably time to engage an auto sparky

    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
    • By "reverse flow", do you mean "return flow"? Being the IC having a return pipe back behind the bumper reo, or similar? If so... I am currently making ~250 rwkW on a Neo at ~17-18 psi. With a return flow. There's nothing to indicate that it is costing me a lot of power at this level, and I would be surprised if I could not push it harder. True, I have not measured pressure drop across it or IAT changes, but the car does not seem upset about it in any way. I won't be bothering to look into it unless it starts giving trouble or doesn't respond to boost increases when I next put it on the dyno. FWIW, it was tuned with the boost controller off, so achieving ~15-16 psi on the wastegate spring alone, and it is noticeably quicker with the boost controller on and yielding a couple of extra pounds. Hence why I think it is doing OK. So, no, I would not arbitrarily say that return flows are restrictive. Yes, they are certainly restrictive if you're aiming for higher power levels. But I also think that the happy place for a street car is <300 rwkW anyway, so I'm not going to be aiming for power levels that would require me to change the inlet pipework. My car looks very stock, even though everything is different. The turbo and inlet pipes all look stock and run in the stock locations, The airbox looks stock (apart from the inlet being opened up). The turbo looks stock, because it's in the stock location, is the stock housings and can't really be seen anyway. It makes enough power to be good to drive, but won't raise eyebrows if I ever f**k up enough for the cops to lift the bonnet.
    • There is a guy who said he can weld me piping without having to cut chassis, maybe I do that ? Or do I just go reverse flow but isn’t reverse flow very limited once again?
