hey guys just wondering if someone could help me out. i've got a r33 with s2 rb25det, 6boost, big garrett and making 400hp but on sunday i got up, started it was running good, then drove to the track for powercruise (wa) and was waiting in line on idle and it decided it had pro cams in it and startd idling lumpy then when i went to take off it stalled n from then on i couldn't get it started agen....... see my problem lol.

i checkd it yesterday and pulled out no.1 plug and it was dry after tryna turn it over few time and made sure it was geting spark witch it was and checked the other ones and they were wet but not dripping... but all getting spark and battery is allil dead but we had jumper leads on but still wouldnt start just turns over.... any ideas would be much apprecaited. cheers

As much as it pained me to read that short paragraph..

Ok so your either missing spark or fuel, the fact that your 2-5 plugs are still wet sort of tells you it's probably missing spark still, despite you saying it was checked. How exactly did you go about checking spark? Have you verified fuel pressure still?

Rip the feed line off the rail and check it primes with ign. I was going to recommend putting the ECU into diags to check for fault codes, but looking at the mods it's probably not running stock management anymore.

As often as it's said for it to die completely like that I would be leaning towards a faulty CAS at this stage, thats pending your answer on how spark was verified.

hey man, yeah we checked the fuel by like you sed pulling it off and turning ignition and it had fuel. we tested spark by pulling out the coil and plug and sitting it up and turning it over and it was making spark so im kinda thinking cas sensor to... but thanks for all ya feed back. so what you reackon? if it helps was in powercruise the day before giving it abit and then burnout comp that nyt.. but started fine in the mornong.. lol cheers ya help

Im assuming u have an AEM computer? a PFC or something ?

I had the same issue, fkn lumpy idle, guttless, and died. My loom was loose in my pfc ecu. Tightened up the screw and she was sweet.

    • I just got to work and skimmed through 61508 and 61511. I was surprised the CSA adopted both, but neither are enforced. To recap what I read, it states that in a perfect world, they should be segregated but they acknowledge that this is not industry standard and clearly mention that they allow mixing of safety and non-safety. 61511 also mentions software segregation like AB does in their safety PLC's.   Now if only I could go back to control, let alone safety over comms. In my current line of work, we're only allowed monitoring and basic control over comms. Everything critical must still be hard wired as much as possible. 
    • I've unfortunately never been as they're on the complete other side of the continent and another country that isn't currently letting us in as easily as they use to. I even heard their stop signs over there actually say "Stop" instead of "Arret". If I decided to trek the 48h drive, I wouldn't know when or where to stop haha. Whenever I order parts from UP Garage, I order from Japan as it's cheaper. Same with GKTech... oddly enough, it's cheaper shipped from Australia then it is the US.  UP Garage Japan operates their US leg though, unlike Tomei. If Tomei JPN had the power to close down Tomei USA, I'm sure it would be done in a day. They're two completely separate entities. Tomei JPN messed up somewhere originally agreeing to its creation and got sacked big time. 
    • I asked someone about this and he told me about the Audi 1.8T engine. But I think it would be difficult to swap
    • I don't know that machine specifically, but I'd personally go for something with a little more kick than 130amp. Around up to 180 would be good. At the 6mm range, you're really pushing the machine hard and don't have a long period you can run for with out needing to give it a rest. Lots of MIG machines come with a regulator and hose. A lot will come with a starter roll of wire too, but it isn't too expensive to buy. I'd recommend NOT buying a massive roll too, as you don't want it sitting around FOREVER in the machine between uses and potentially going to shit. For thin sheet metal, get a roll of 0.6mm if you're doing over 3mm and above, switch over to 0.8mm wire. Even by 2mm you'd probably really want to switch. As for gas battle, it's all swap and go style now. You'll pay a bottle deposit, and then X amount to swap for a full one. I think it's like $200 or $300 for a D Size bottle upfront as "deposit", and like $110 to $150 per swap. My D size CO2/argon bottle lasts a fair bit of welding on the MIG. And I run an E size bottle on the TIG. For DIY MIG, stick with a D size bottle. If you really start to get into a LOT of welding and doing it really regularly, then upgrade. If you're like most DIY car guys, one D bottle will last you 2 or 3 years easily. I think I've been on my current bottle about 5 years. It is starting to get low, but I've been smashing it a lot more the last 6 months.
    • SR20s came with cars like the Bluebird and Primera, but the RB20 never came. The ones in Turkey were either brought in specially or from abroad. That's why RBs aren't as common as SRs. And if a part breaks or I need to replace it when doing maintenance, it's harder to find parts for RBs.
