It isn't hyro-locked, if it was it would not turn on the starter. 

However, that doesn't rule out a bent rod (rods will bend as they are applying the force from the crank, valves will be fine)

The JECS resistor pack is just a set of resistors that increase the resistance to the injectors, it won't have failed, particularly if the injectors are opening/closing when you turn the CAS. The ignitor pack on the other hand might be an issue, perhaps the spark is weak.

However, on thinking again, I wonder about the exhaust and in particular muffler being blocked. Can you disconnect the exhaust from the front pipe down near the gearbox and try again?

Motor was locked. Will be doing comp test when i get back to my house, couldnt find my gauge..

I used the blow function on a shop vac to ensure exaust was not blocked. Put to pre turbo intake and plugging tb pipe

I have 2 rb' so I have taken a second ignightor and tested. When plugs are grounded to the block on all 6 there is a strong spark no change in spark between ignightors.

If the resistance pack is recieving power wouldnt that increase resistance and result in injectors spraying more fuel and adding oxygen. 

I'm at the point of diagnosing no combustion despite there being timing spark and fuel.

One thing I'm seeing is I can crank for a solid 2 min pull the plugs and they are dry for the most part.

Can someone tell me what the resistor is supposed to read on a meter? Is it powered? When I test mine it reads zero on ohms and volt

When you say "motor was locked", when, how did you learn that, and what did you do to unlock it?

The resistor pack should have 5ohm between pin 3 and all other pins

If you want to test the spark side, here are the resistor pack and coil pack values

Noting this is RB26 not Rb20, but 99% sure they are the same

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
