Hi again, Just fitted the Bee-r to my R34 GTT (as posted the other day) and all was running fine, infact it was running awsome , until it decided to die on me on the way home. I got it all set up and wired in properley and had the limit set to 7000rpm which is low to what i normally run at 8000rpm .On my drive home i never even hit the limiter and my car just died. I've removed the bee-r and it still wont start or run. I've done a few checks, spark plugs or o.k , compression test was fine , everything seems ok , but i now have no spark to the plugs. Also i can hear a buzzing noise coming from the idle control valve when i turn on the ignition , is this supposed to happen as i dont recall hearing it before. I've took the covers off my power FC and nothing is fried in the ecu either so just wondered if anyone has any ideas

many thanks

8000 rmp?

does it even make power that high? Standard block and head? cams?

What turbo are you running and at what psi?

Cant the PFC increase the rev limit to 8000 without the bee-r?

ive posted some pics in the gallery section now.

I did all the work/fabrication myself with just a bit of time and patience

Will it even crank? Or is it, turn key, buzz noise? I'd recheck the fuses in the kick-panel, my old GT used to mysteriously blow one of the main fuses giving the exact same symptoms.

Sometimes the fuses blow so neatly you can't see the break.

    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
    • Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.  
    • Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
