ha ha ADFA mechanic an officer in ADFA only clears $23,000 a year most of them are fresh out of school they get a loan and repay like 28% intrest on a flash car and think they can work on it at the shop most are sadly mistaken he will be on that pay bracket until he graduates to become an officer this could take 4 years. Defence love to talk it up and drive flash rides but there is usualy nothing under the bonnet flash. let him have his bottle because in time people will have to call him sir and he will be forced to grow up.

I never knew there were mechanics at ADFA. Apparently it is supercharged and turbo'd............

Anyway, a lot of young kids are like this. We soon set them straight :P

those details make no sense, inducton: twin turbo, then he says supercharger and turbo, fenatic...... F-E-N-A-T-I-C, no R, only little boys with civics use the letter R, 890hp, at barbagello, isn't that a actual race track not a drag strip ???

For starters it's spelt 'fanatic' not 'fernatic' so he's obviously got the know how, not to mention the fact that you are right in saying that Barbagello is a race track and does not have a drag strip unle you count the main straight which goes up and down, or the other straigh which has a 180 degree bend at the end of it. Obviously a nutter :bs!:

yes there are mechanics in ADFA they are either called meo's or weo's (weapon enginering officer) i forget what the first one stands for but generaly known as an enginering officer's

and i know what some of you are thinking dosen't sound to bad but working on 400 year old engines isn't fun especialy when an engine the size of your car puts out less kw than a stock gts-t

the supercharged turbo thing comes from the detroit donks they are turbo supercharged ha ha ha ha

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required

      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.
