So I bought a nismo fuel pump for my r34 gtt pretty straight forward installation as its a direct replacement pump. Put everything back together went to start the car and wait for it nothing. Can hear the pump priming but the engine isn't ticking over at all.

Any ideas? Nothing is leaking pump is priming so why isn't it starting?

Going to have another looking in the morning so hopefully i can work it out.

Thanks

yep 3 lines

1xcircle shaped line = black
1xelbow shaped line = orange
1xeblbow shaped line = yellow

joined them all back correctly

back to black
orange to orange
yellow to yellow

so can't see how that is wrong hmmmmm?

yep was running fine before this and yes all i did was the fuel pump. By not ticking over i mean it doesn't even attempt to start nothing.

I have a nistune but surly this wouldn't effect it to the point of the car not turning on

Did you prime the system lots before turning on? If some of the fuel has drained out of the injectors then they sometimes take a bit to get started. Key on and off a fair few times is the easiest way to do it. Key on, let it prime, key off, repeat

Also change your fuel filter in case the new pump has stirred up some crap thats got through the sock (not likely but id change the fuel filter anyway)

If the car won't start:

1) Check battery voltage, you need at least 10.5v while key on start (yes actually turn it to START, even though you think nothing is happening, what could actually be happening is there isn't enough voltage to bring the solenoid in to engage the starter)
2) check fuses

3) check start relay (30 needs power, 85 and 86 need to energize a coil, so a test light between them with the key on start should light it up)

    • No. The ECU's hose is for a connetcion between the plenum (assuming single throttle body, not ITBs) and the ECU's internal MAP sensor. This is the primary load measurement of the ECU - so you need to get this one right. This has NOTHING to do with the boost contol. The wastegate also needs to see a boost signal - but it is actually far better for it NOT TO COME FROM THE PLENUM (again, assuming single TB, and not ITBs). This should come from the turbo's compressor housing (assuming there is a nipple on there, which there might well not be), or on the boost pipe somewhere between the turbo and the TB. On the pipe from the turbo to the intercooler is usually most convenient. The boost controller is then located between that boost source and the wastegate, ACCORDING TO THE CORRECT PLUMBING DRAWING FOR THAT BOOST CONTROLLER. There is no general diagram or instruction that will be correct for every case. Then the other ports on the plenum are for purposes such as Duncan described. If the boost controller has an internal MAP sensor, for a boost display, etc, then it will want to be hooked up there, alongside the ECU and the FPR.
    • Ok gotcha, so one post to fpr  another to bov  and I have the mishimoto boost controller and a link g4+ so I’d just have the tuner set it up properly. For the last two from plenum post throttle to  ecu/ boost controller, I know that I have a hose coming from the ecu that I was confused about so I assume that’s what connect to the boost controller from the ecu? And then the last is just from plenum to boost controller then to wastegate?
    • From there, it was just a quick electrical check, prime the oil and start her up Which, is not what happened. 1. Bloody seppo Aeropro battery holder. Not only was it too tall for the battery (which I'll forgive them for, I have another battery the same nominal size that is taller than Neil's one, but the bracket is a fixed height so the battery was spaced up) But the thing that really shits me is the hardware to hold it on requires a 7/32 Hex key. WTF. No-one will ever be able to remove or install the damn thing without a hex key they don't own 2. Kill switch no longer worked once the console was installed. Neil mentioned above he had to adjust the length but it no longer cleared the console once installed. Sorted. 3. Suspiciously, the brake light holders were hanging in the boot with no globes. Sure enough the stopper on the brake pedal was missing so they are always on unless the kill switch is activated. Will pick one up tomorrow (turns out 32 and 33 don't use the same stopper) 4. All that sorted, I turned on the kill switch, turned the key to ACC. Nothing. Turned it to IGN. Nothing. Checked some fuses and found the main IGN in the boot was missing which improved things once it was replaced. Now ECU and dash lights turn on with IGN but still no fuel pump. 5. Turned it to Start....ECU on, no fuel pump, no starter. Plus the voltage dropped straight to 9v.  I suspect the starter is f**ked but am going to have to work through it all and see what is happening, really looks like more than one issue. Does anyone have the R33 fuse box key with the circuit it sources from (eg BAT, ACC, IGN, SRT etc) and supplies? I can find a translated list showing Amps and circuit without supply circuit, and I can find supply circuit without Amps and target circuit.
    • 3rd time lucky, the AAC is now all plumbed up after getting some final fittings All set up under the plenum of maximum access
