hey guys ive just replaced the rb20det in my ceffy with another 1 i got it all hooked up and started it and didnt seem to run right it sounded like the timing was out and wasnt firing properly and also pissing out black smoke so somehow to much fuel. i though it might of been an electrical fault since then i have had it at the auto electrician and he cant find any problems in the ecu or harness. the coil packs and sparkplugs are fine to. its possibly the crank angle sensor but thats all i can think of anyway

would any of u guys have an idea of wat i mean or would be able to help solve my problem?

cheers wes :D

Clean all the sensors with contact is the first thing id do and also make sure all the wiring to the sensors is done properly. get timing checked (cas should be dead centre), also find out if your acutally running rich or lean as even tho it spits black smoke it might be leaning out everywhere else.

well all the electrical is fine so im told. but yea im gonna get the timing done tommorow along with the cas. but with the black smoke it wasnt there before wen running my old rb20 and i have tryed a new afm and it made no diffirence but somehow it seems to run better with the afm unplugged :D so yea not quiet sure

32 motor or ceffy one?

you swap the things over you needed to?

um i had originally the r32 rb20 in it and swapped with another rb20 from an r32 aswell so it should run just the same as the last one shouldnt it?

all being well that is but yea it was just a basic swap

hey guys just letting u no i changed the injectors and a new fuel rail and diffirent coil packs now its doesnt seem to have spark :) maybe i havent put a plug back in properly but yea i cant see a plug that hasnt been plugged in.

so im getting fuel ok now but no spark would any1 have any ideas?

Swap the igniter over? make sure the plug is ok on the igniter?

Hey mate yea ive had the ignitor swapped over to see wat was causing the problem the ignitor was good but that was about a week ago and i havent started it since so yea im thinkin possibly "cas" becuase it wont start now

cheers mate

    • The studs are needed to run the splash plates/ full length baffle plates    do you have a link to which foam you used? I have seen autosport had the yellow stuff that’s E85 safe.  https://www.autosport.com.au/fuel-tank-foam    
    • Don't you have specialist fastener warehouses? I can point to a non-trivial number of them in my city of 1.5 mllion people. Sassafras agencies is a 2 minute walk from my office. United Fasteners is almost exactly halfway between my work and my house, so less than 15km from each. All metric sizes, all SAE sizes, all materials, all thread pitches, all form factors. I know the street address of one and have walked into and bought stainless bolts, nuts and washers from, 2000km away in a regional centre in Western Australia with a population of <200000. Only mugs buy their fasteners at hardware stores. Our version of Lowes or the orange hellzone is called Bunnings. A rip off merchant of cheaply made exclusive home brand Chinese excreta of the first order. We can walk into Blackwoods, which is the Oz equivalent of Grainger, and get robbed blind, but at least it's getting robbed blind on proper industrial grade gear.    
    • 30 mL or something. I hate the lack of standardization on metric too, leads to annoying situations like not being able to find an M12x1.25 nut at the hardware store unless I special order or find the one store in a 30 km radius that actually stocks a non-trivial quantity of the thing so there's at least an 80% chance they haven't all been stolen.
    • I can't help with the cam stud clearances (are studs really even needed??) but I have been running fuel cell foam over the factory baffles in the race car for years and they have been doing a reasonable job of keeping blowby under control....almost never have to drain the catch can even though the clearances are pretty loose
    • All I can add is that I run a shimmed factory diff and it is awesome for a balance between grip and clunks.....but no I don't know exactly what is in there and the shop that did it sadly is gone. I guess the point is just that the factory centre can be modified to do exactly what we want for racing
