Ok. I pulled the plug for the CAS gave it a clean with afm cleaner- now I'm getting good strong spark in each coil/plug. Replaced all plugs. Cleaned the afm again. Pulled all fuses and gave them a squirt with contact cleaner. All fuses look good, the ones that looked a little iffy, I replaced. Still no start. Replaced the vacuum line for the fpr. Replaced the fuel filter (Z200). With the new filter plugged in, I left the hose disconnected from the fpr and tried cranking it. Not a drop came out. Shouldn't it flow out?

Anyone?

Sorry, I thought I had put that in the first post... Series 2 96 gtst with 155.000 k's on the clock

How do I check the fuel pressure?? I've never had to deal with fuel issues before.. only with two strokes! I am getting the smell of fuel through the cylinders when a plug is out and it's cranking Tried starting it with the AFM unplugged - no dice. I've just pulled all the coli packs out... Not getting ANY spark from the plugs resting on the side of the block from any of the coil packs!! Good power is making it all the way through the loom when cranking to the plug for each coil - around 7.6v in each plug..

Checked the fuel pump... fuse is fine, I can hear the relay click when someone turns the ignition on, but I can't hear any priming/humming... I'm guessing she's dead??

Thanks for the starting points guys! 1) Checked all the fuses - all are fine. 2) Pulled the afm. It wasn't gunked up, just a bit of black crap on the mesh. Regardless, I pulled it all the way out and gave it a good squirt with a residueless contact cleaner. Still no start. Just about to try and get the coil packs out and see if I can find some cracks and silicone them up... It cranks over, but there doesn't seem like there is any combustion. Just the starter spinning the engine.

Hey all, About two months ago, I had a bit if a miss around 4500 rpm, nothing major, just a bit of a flutter that would be gone after a second or so. It only did it about half a dozen times and then stopped. Today, about 300 meters before I got to work, I felt like I had NO power, it was almost like the clutch was slipping... Ducked out at lunch time and it was even worse, couldn't rev over 2500 rpm under load (in neutral she revs fine). Thinking I got some crappy fuel, I went to repco and grabbed a bottle of Nulon total fuel system cleaner. Go back out to the car, but it wouldn't start! I spent about 5 minutes cranking it over before it spluttered to life. I nursed it home after work with the issue, it idled fine, ran ok up until 2500 revs but anything over that it was missing badly. Went out about an hour ago to start it to see if I could see the coils arcing out, but it wont start again! Am I in the right direction with the replacing the coils? Also, not to try and start an OEM vs Splitfire vs whatever discussion, but for an OEM set of coils, what kind of money am I looking at? Right now, Splitfires are around the $550-600 mark on ebay, but OEM's are going for about $300 for a set... But I've read everywhere that OEM's are super spendy compared to Splitfires.. EG - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Genuine-Nissan-Ignition-Coil-Packs-Skyline-R33-Series-2-RB25DET-R34-GTR-RB26DETT-/131004016395?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&fits=Plat_Gen%3AR33&hash=item1e8072a70b&_uhb=1 Car is stock power wise, just a Kakimoto N1 system. Any help would be appreciated!!

I think you're right about that! I got a little brave and tried prying it off... dunno what kind of double sided tape was used, but it was amazingly strong stuff!!!

Nah I can't see any where you could put a battery... it's attached to the dash quite firmly, I've been temped to just give it a big yank, but a bit worried about damaging any wiring underneath or the dash itself!

Cheers Plattsy! It's odd, there is no mark on the bumper to say that there was anything even there.. Unless it's been glassed and resprayed... As for the little solar thingy-ma-jig.. I'm lost! The LED's on the front of it don't flash, or light up, at all, they never have! You can flick the switch to OFF/IL/SQ... nothing happens! No noises, no lights, no nothing! It's got me stumped...

There is a button just to the right of the clock that makes the aerial go half or full height. The button in question is about 200mm below that...

Nothing happens! Well, nothing obvious happens when either switch is changed... it's so weird!

Ok, I have some better pictures.. Any ideas? On the unit on top of the dash, the switch on the side has three settings - off - 1L or IL - SQ. It definitely looks like a little solar panel and has what looks to be like four LED's on the front of it. Cheers!

Thanks hornet! My apologies. I'll get the slr out tomorrow...

Hey all! Just wondering if anyone can tell me what this button is? It's just on the bottom left of the steering column... it only presses, it doesn't switch... Also, I have this strange little unit in the right hand corner my dash... does anybody know what it is?? Cheers!! Lego

I hit submit before adding the others...

Hey all! Thought I'd put up a quick introduction and say hi... Hi! I'm Tim/Lego... just picked up my first Skyline R33 gts-t type M... Pretty clean and relatively stock car except for: 17" enkei rp-01 (I believe) 17x8 front 17x9 rear HKS turbo timer Kakimoto 3.5" cat back 3" turbo to cat (unsure if it's kakimoto) Anyway, here's a few pics!

Hey all, Just thought I'd do a quick introduction - Hi! Just picked up my first Skyline... R33 Type M Reletively stock, except for 17" Enkei rims, 3.5" Kakimoto cat back exhaust (unsure if it's turbo back, but turbo to cat is 3") and a HKS turbo timer...

Haha, it's only to tow a stand up jet ski and trailer (400kg max). I never go out on my own, so if the ramp is too steep or whatever, I'll just hook the trailer up to my mates ranger... I was more interested to see what they look like - I've googled the hell out of it, but can't seem to find any decent pics!

Hey all, I've had a look around, but can't find any pics... I've been in touch with Locsed in Ringwood about having one made up, but want to know what they look like... Does anyone have any pics of theirs they can post up? Cheers, Lego
