Ok this one has me buggered,

Just got car tunned was driving into work, almost at work then car lost all power, I suspected fuel pump because o was told the walbro gss 342 ( think that's the code) are crap, so i got into work ordered a new one, put it in and nothing pump isn't even priming, checked the PFC, found it's giving a signal, checked both relys and they are fine, checked the fuse ok. So we bridged the rely so the pump was constantly running, tryed to start and nothing just Cranking.

Car is a 1997 r33 gts-t series 2.

Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks

Is there power and earth at the pump?

Try to power up the old one off a battery directly and see if i works.

If it does then Double check the Power and earth at the pump in the boot.

If this all works out then check how u mounted it. If u used a hose clamp to hold to the mount then try backing the clamp off a little

Funny I was just about to post up a thread for help haha .

Ok heres a story about my GTR hahah..

I was on my way to the SAU drag day... turning right on to loganlea road first gear takes off fine... turn the corner give it a little bit more gas and

Engine stops dead in its tracks and won't start...

The check engine light keeps flickering on and off on and off if I try to start it...

Checked the usual things Intercooler piping, plugs, coils, fuel pump still seems to prime and run so thats good and gives fuel pressure to the gauge...

It turns over fine but just does not want to fire....

Now the idea I had was try change the ignitior pack so I lined up my mates at field garage who have a track 33 gtr... well that didnt work..

I went and spoke to a guy that I know who works alot on cars and said he thinks it might be the Crank angle sensor has gone??? So I guess thats tomorrow jobby.. but I am just curious what you SAU gurus would have to tell me to check?

    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
    • Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛
    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .
