Hey there guys,

im new to all this so please bear with me...

i just bought an r32 gtst which i plan on modifying etc.. however after taking the motor out, i decided to put it back in and drive it around for a while because im selling my daily driver to get a car through work.. anyway...

i have put the engine back in BUT for some reason the car will start and then die pretty much straight away.. the only thing i have done differently then stock is mounting the battery in the boot.

starting the car i can rev it to about 1000 rpm while it shudders and splutters and carries on until i release the accelerator and then it just dies. i have noticed something else and that is i managed to get it to rev to 3000 and the boost gauge went into vac instead of pressureising. im at a loss as to what it is, i made sure that all the intercooler piping was clear and that the earth was good to the engine but for some reason the bloody car just wont run properly.. has any one got any suggestions as to what i should try?

thank you for any help

Yes, it is very difficult to build any kind of boost in neutral as the engine is under no load.

One of the common things people do, is put the fuel lines on backwards.

Hey guys,

yea i checked the fuel lines, reversed them and when i did that it woudlnt start at all. i have also checked the afm already which i unplugged then tried to start the car and it didnt make any difference.

question, if the car is only running on 2 cylinders will that make it do everything i mentioned? i suspect that maybe a couple of the injectors r blocked up. does anyone have any stock items that i can buy off them?

thanks for clearing up the boost problem, i didnt even think about the engine not having any load on it.

thanks for your help guys

Hey guys,

it turns out that one of my injectors isnt firing and my afm is gone! i can start the car without it plugged in and it runs a little rough but nothing compared to what was happening. in any case i plugged it back in while it was running and it just died.

thanks for your help!

      Does anyone know whats happening with harness on drivers door?

      The two diagrams are equivalent. The R32 one is just one sheet out of about 3 showing everything in the whole car all at once. And without knowing the functionality that occurs in the modules, they are both equally opaque.

      8v - 2.48ms 9v - 2.15ms 10v - 1.74ms 11v - 1.41ms 12v - 1.15ms 13v - 0.99ms 14v - 0.89ms 15v - 0.82ms 16v - 0.81ms I'm running these values on my RB20 Neo with 570cc Denso R35 stock jets and it's great. Also bought a set for my Legnum VR4, love these injectors!

      Thanks for your reply,  Those blue/green wires running to the actuator aren't attached to anything, so I'm not sure how the central locking is still working. I will have to take a good look tomorrow, I don't have the car with me. After googling it seems like a pretty common aftermarket actuator which even uses the same green/blue wires the immobiliser required. i'll test everything tomorrow and if it's working i'll melt the solder, strip it, resolder and neaten it all up with some heat shrink. I don't have to understand it if it works hahaha I just don't want a fire/ short circuit. That R32 diagram looks more like a continuity chart? Can you make sense of this form the R34 manual? 10V is probably due to very flat battery, i'll recheck as well tomorrow, I did have to jump start it haha. Thanks again!

      So, COM doesn't mean comms. It means common. What common itself means will depend on the type of device. For a two directional actuator (ie, one that can push and pull on the same output rod) then the common will typically just be the earth connection. There will be at least 2 other wires. If you put 12V on one of the other wires, then the actuator will push. On the other 12V wire, it will pull. Can't quite make out what is going on with the wiring of your actuator. It appears to have several wires at the actuator plug, but there only appears to be 2 wires where its loom approaches the door control module, with at least one of the others cut off. I don't know these actuators off by heart. I'd have to look at a wiring diagram for one before knowing what the wires were about, and that's despite me having to replace one in my car not all that long ago. Just not interesting enough to have dedicated memory set aside for trivia like that any more. That actuator is an aftermarket one, not the original one, which probably died and was replaced. That might require some sort of bodge job on wiring to make it work. Although nothing should justify the bodginess of the bodge job done. As to the soldering job on the door module's loom plug. Ahhahhahaha. Yes, very nasty. Again, I cant tell you what any of those wires do. You'd need to study the R34 wiring diagram (if you can find one that shows the door module). I don't think I have any. I'd have to study the R32 diagram to start to understand what mine is doing, and again, even though I've had a problem with mine for the last 25 years (where it locks the passenger door when the driver's window reaches top or bottom of travel) I'm just not interested enough to try to to work it out. So long as it's not burning down, it's fine with me. Here's the R32 GTR diagram, which, confusingly, has rear door lock actuators and window motors on it!! As you can see, unless you understand the functions of the door lock timer and the power window amplifier, you'll never be able to work out how it works just from the diagram. I don't imagine that the R34 one is any better. Hopefully an R34 aware bod can help. FWIW, the two wires that are cut and joined look like they are both power supply - so hopefully it is not fatal to join them. The 10V you measured on the cut off free end of one of them is concerning. You'd expect 12V, and it might be the reason for the bodge job joining them together.
