yeah niz im with cam! about the jash thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yeah and cam but if i get a dump pipe to suit right, don't ya think it would make another place for exhaust leakage? that why i was thinkin of sellingmy apexi front and just getting a new dump/front made up!

i agree coilovers are awesome! but i can't justify paying that much unless i was harcore track racer! so i think i just go for the aftermarket shocks and springs!

dont really have itme to chase thats why i now use who i do - seems to be very thorough and has the time on his hands to be that way.

I'll get it done just got to find time n money - but first the blow off valve problem - one step at a time - should see the shopping list i have for my car - i mean just even the essentials its huge - need my brake pads replaced soon too or i might end up under a truck!

niz i have a blow off valve that i wanna sell! it's a ssr blow off valve styled like blitz! bit fatter though! apparently very loud (look at me loud) hehe although never put it on my car! if ya want you can take it off me to see if it will fix your problem, if it does you can buy it if ya want, if it doesn't then chuck it back at me in a big tantrum! ;)

adrian :D

Adrian - ok, I get what ur on about now - and i agree.. u should be able to get rid of the Apexi pipe and use the proceeds to get the dump/front combo done?

Niz - understand completely.. thats one thing i hate, chasing people so they can take my $$... fair call..

sorry niz it ain't a re-circulative BOV, it's a atmo-venting BOV :D

but i'll have a talk to a few mates might be able to get you one at a good price i'll see what i can do! why is ur stock BOV playing up or sumfin?

adrian ;)

mines aftermarket - there when i got the car - doesnt make a noise its just leaking air at the moment so its playing havoc with my idling and keeping the revs low so once i get that fixed then i can get it tuned and hopefully it'll be back to its feisty old self - its being sluggish lately and its boring the hell outta me ;)

hmmm wouldnt mind a bit of a ricey loud one. yeah keep your ears out for me anyway - might start looking for one saturday morning because i just want my car back to normal ASAP.

adjust the spring tension on the bov you got at moment? have you tried that? that should stop it leakin! just don't adjust it too much that it's too tight for the pressure to release when your off the throttle! are you going to auto salon niz? cam? if you guys are i'll be there saturday, tell me in advanced adn i'll bring the bov along with me on sat incase your nearby i can drop it off!

adrian ;)

going on Sunday. Hmmm spring tension - me under bonnet equals disaster - would rather be able to blame someone else if anything goes wrong but i may have to have a look anyway if its easy enough. Where abouts are u adrian? arent u thornlie way?

i'm in east cannington i go to thornlie tafe! what type of bov is the one ur using? coz i'm sure if you adjust the spring tension make it just a bit tighter it will stop leaking! coz you haven't upped your boost pressures or anything have ya?

adrian ;)

ahh k.. so the aftermarket one is hanging off the std mount then I take it?

I'm with Adrian - pull it off, clean it and tighten up the spring pressure.. Maybe get your mechanic to do it? Shouldn't take him more than an hour..

i think the boost is up a little more than standard ;) honestly i thought everything was standard apart from the obviousl lowering etc in my car when i bought it - but ive learnt lately that all is not what it seems - it has been played with. So im still learning what exactly is under that bonnet - i assumed that BOV was std til i was recently told otherwise - its nothing ricey looks like fairly standard - havent really taken a close look for myself lately - havent had time might have a look see this weekend see if i can find out make etc

you can do it yourself niz if ya have the right tools!

you probably wouldn't even need to take it off just adjust the spring tension there is normally a lil knob on top of the valve near where the hose from inlet plenum goes if i do remember rightly!

    • 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
    • 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.
