Over Fueling Stock S1 25


Recommended Posts

Hey guys hope you don't mind first post being a question been asking on 31 club but haven't had a lot of replies. I've recently installed a series 1 25 into my 31.

109,000 kms on engine

Redtop J pipe (no bov)

2.5 fmic way to big.

standard dump, de-cat and 3" blast pipes.

GFB boost controller set at 8 psi

Bosch 040 pump

As you can see it's stock. I have checked all the vacuum lines and swapped the j pipe because I thought the spring in the bov was gone and leaking. I've checked all silicone joiners. I have a boost gauge hooked up in the engine bay to help with diagnostics, no boost spiking or drop so I'd have to say it doesn't have a vacuum leak. I've changed the afm out with a couple others took a lot of the missing away but not completely. I've tried screwing the icv all the way in as well as unplugging it to see if that was the issue. I've tried adjusting the tps and put it back to where it originally was.

Now when you start it it'll idle for a few seconds at 500 then raise and settle to a thousand rpm. Between 1000 and 2000 rpm it has a slight hesitation, car will drop revs below idle when you back off the throttle. Anything over 2000rpm when you back off throttle if you don't blip it the car will completely stall. Even if you're doing 5 grand in 4th... I'm really stuck here and getting a little bit over everything if I'm honest I'd just look to put some km's on it.

If anyone has any ideas please let me know anything else to add to the list to check, and a few tips on how to check it would be amazing.

Where are u located? Take it to a tuner and get it checked. Can be many possibilities

In perth 40km's from the closest tuner don't wanna drive it don't really want it to be trailered and left at a shop with an open bill. Rb25 only went in it after a 20 had spent 4 months at a professional shop that couldn't get it running. And I was left with the bill. I'm running out of money, I'm running out of patience and a shop is a last resort but I was just wanting a bit of a checklist to try from home.

The rb20 stopped fueling all of a sudden had pressure at the rail had signal going to the injectors but the injectors would pulse random amounts at different injectors and not in sequence.

Tried 3 differents AFMs

Tried 2 different ECU's

All sensors are RB25.

How do I do an ecu diagnostic?

I use my consult. But there is a way to test via engine light afaik. Cant help u on how to tho as i dont use it that way.

So u have rb25 with ALL sensors including tps, knock and afm? With rb25 loom and ecu?

Are u running stock fuel pressure reg?

Have u tried disconnecting 02 sensor and driving?

Are u running stock intake pipe to afm?

Thanks WMDC I'll have a look bud.

RB25 series 1 stock ecu and loom has knock sensors installed I'm assuming they're 25 to match the ecu? I have sexy fingers when it comes to electrics so the boys sorted it out for me. Running stock fuel pressure reg at the moment waiting til pay day to buy a nismo non rising rate set n forget incase the 040's pushing past the stock regulator. All my diagnostic stuff is for carby so can't check the fuel pressure yet. disconnected the 02 sensor and just had it stationary and it was doing all the same things, will it be different under load?

Errr cheers for the link saved it. Homeboy who wired it will bell me after work I'll ask him if he kept the consult in the wiring assuming he did and whether it would work with the check engine light on the dash of the 31. I thought they had an led on the side of the ecu that flashed.

And to the reg fair enough, I saw that it was about $100 to buy an inline efi gauge or $199 for a regulator with a gauge so I was going to buy the reg with gauge. I'll see if I can get the diagnostics checked out n see what it says. If it doesn't work on the dash can I plug an ODBII reader into it anywhere? I know my friend owns one.

    • So next year I am looking at upgrading from my VE SS bomadore ute to something more refined.  I wanted to stick with a V8 but not anything German or Australian, either a coupe or a sedan. So if I wanted anything newish that limited my options to either the Lexus RCF which I quite like. But with the price they demand and a kid on the way a 2 door coupe is probably not going to be the best idea. The next best thing would be the ISF but the newest models are 2014 and commanding over 60k and even the older 2008 models in ok condition starting around 35k is kind of bullshit. So I figured if I could not have the noise I could perhaps make do with easy power. Enter the infinity Q50 or Skyline equivalent. The price difference between the 300 and 400hp models seems a bit crazy. Right now there is 300hp Q50 one on carsales from a dealer with 61km for 27k drive away. If I wanted to get a 400hp Red or 400R car the prices seem to start at 43k From my limited research it seems that the only differences are that the 400r/Red Red runs more boost and a more aggressive tune. There are are turbine speed sensors on the turbos. Has 2 pumps for the water to air intercooler. Runs an engine oil cooler. I'm guessing that the exterior trims might look a little more sporty as well. I had a lazy look for upgrades to bridge the gap on z1motorsports They have kits that upgrade the water to air heat exchanger as well as the coolant pump which should give a non Red/400r better intercooling temps than the stock Red/400r. I added an engine oil cooler with a thermostat as well to try and make things as close as possible. Obviously the ECU is going to need a tickle. Having not done much in the way of research they also sell a ECU flashing tool with pre loaded tunes that are supposed to boost the non Red/400R by 100hp which adds 1k USD to the cost. The total cost of the parts @ the current time including shipping and taxes worked out to be $4350 AUD. Personally I would rather get the car tuned on a dyno which would probably add more cost Assuming the worst that you got a workshop to install the new parts I would guess no more than 5 hours would be required in the worst case @ 5 x $150 per hour = $750 So the total cost could be around $5100 So for easy number 5k + 27K = 32k I guess that would leave some change left over to swap out the open diff and fit a LSD Any thoughts?      
    • Right, not sure why I thought it to be a lean spike. It might be fixable with modern card-style hot film MAFs which have some design features to avoid counting reversion flow but I've never tried it myself.
    • I did not realise this, I'll contribute more and earn my stripes and retry later. 
    • I'm only going to hassle you for posting links to images. It's against my policy to click links that could be some nasty payload. Sadly, you need to make 9 more posts before you can just stick the images directly in a post, unless @PranK sees this and bends the rule for you.
    • Hello,new to the group, I bought a R32 from auction recently, wondering if anyone knows the cars history, seems to have the usual go fast bits on it, plan is to do an engine swap- add 2 extra cylinders and 1 extra turbo. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/i4rjmlzubjbwjtguh6f4s/IMG20241011140744.jpg?rlkey=q0lumm251377vknbqktfwrycq&st=7scvwx4e&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ro24qmwzlczzlfsr4y05x/Screenshot_2024-10-10-10-49-23-90_9a2f5bb2149dae94cd1e190effc09b33.jpg?rlkey=oyguh26ttshlf04ccp48odf4v&st=xloae97b&dl=0   New to forums and posting pics, if links don't work, take it easy on me, 42yrs old and I tune carburettors!!
