Hey guys,

I've just bought an r31 2 door over from japan and had to pull the hks ecu, greddy plenum, trust manifold and k27 turbo off it to get it through compliance and rego. i've used all r32 eccs standard parts to bring it back to stock but have run into problems getting the thing to start!

basically it cranks fine but wont even splutter or fire.

the only thing i've not used from an r32 is the coilpacks, coil loom and ignitor pack and knock sensors, all other sensors have been used from the r32 eccs rb20det. i changed the plugs on the r32 loom to fit the r31 eccs ignitor pack and coil 12v and earth supply. the knock sensors plugged straight into the r32 loom.

what sensors will stop the motor firing? i've changed the CAS and that didnt help.

heres what i've got:

pins 101 103 105 110 112 114 16 58 all have 12v constant

pins 107 108 116 4 10 20 26 30 44 50 60 are all earthed

pins 109 45 49 59 all have ign 12v (49 and 59 both only have 7.3v though)

pins 23 24 have 2.8v on ign

pins 54 57 have 5.9 on ign

i'm getting pulse from the CAS

to me that all seems fine, so wtf isnt it working?

any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers

Karlos

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
