I have an R33 RB25DET SII in my us spec 240sx. I have been having some issues with my car running so rich and have talked to a couple of people about what it could be. I put a wideband on the car about a month ago and here are the readouts:

GEAR A/F Ratio

1st- low 12's

2nd- high to mid 11's

3rd- low 11's to mid 10's

4th- low 10's

I am blowing flames all the time and know it is hurting my power allot. I have replaced the o2, checked the wiring agian and everything is working properly. Checked for vacume leaks and Intercooler leaks which I can't find, unless there is a small leak or puncture which I can't see and opens up at full boost. I also checked the fuel pressure from the fuel pressure regulator....it read around 50psi or so. A friend of mine is saying since I have a walbro fuel pump it is flowing way to high for the RB25's stock ecu and that it should only be at 43psi.

My question to you guys is he right.....should the RB25 only be flowing 43psi?

Or do you know any other reason why it is running so rich?

He recomends me getting an adjustable FPR and tuning it down.

Thanks,

Zach

Get some kind of tunable control over your ecu, either full management or atleast a fuel computer

I dont think its the fuel pump, i know of alot of people who have upgraded to big fuel pumps and have no dramas, the FPR will only allow so much flow.. no more

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
