oh n jenna do i have 2 call him directly?

Prob best if you speak to him personally, as if he knows that you know me, you will get a better deal. He always looks after me and my mates.

sorry been really busy these days....candy job huh?They are great fun to do :D.Most of the motorcycles that we repair are candy colours......Candy's are what you call a monumeric colour Most have a silver metallic ground coat underneath...although what i like to do is lay a ground coat metallic colour thats close to the colour that i am chasing....eg if i want a yellow candy i make a yellow metallic pearl colour thats almost the same as the original colour inside the shop(you can never get the effect that candy colours give by trying to cheat with pearls/metallics...what happens is you can make the colour to look right under fluro light but under sun light its complety wrong or vise verser)then i will spray it out on a test card and wave coat by coat of the correct candy thats been broken down with clear and thinners....after each coat i check to see if i can get the correct flip in colours....when i have got it right i note the amounts of candy that has been applied to the card and transfer it to the job at hand......its a very lengthy process and one spec of dust in a candy job spells dissaster....the dust breaks the surface tension and candy pools to the low spot leaving a dark ring in the job.....A candy job really sorts out the men from the boys.....

yeah im gonna hold off for a while n def get a candy job done

thanx for the reply 2 troy i understand ur busy, u know 2 much!

wat i was gonna get is the silver metallic base with the gold metallic colour put on top... was using the House OF Kolor books to decide...

    • 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.
