I found when mucking around with a friends RB26 power GTS-t when he bought a D-Jetro for it that it wouldnt fire up. We managed to get it to fire by removing the CAS, turning it with the key on and then putting it back in and starting it (we were actually checking fuel and spark were working fine, obviously the extra fuel in the cylinders was enough to start it). After it fired it ran, and I messed around with the tune to get it to idle fairly nicely.

But after this it wouldnt start again.

Have since been told that the D-Jetro base tunes are woefully out of wack in some points which I didn't think would be the case. My old RB25 Power FC could be started, run and driven (gently) with the base tune no problem.

If what I've said in the first post sounds about right and you have only been trying to start it to check it out then it may be a tune issue

Some things to make sure are done first though - Have you changed injector settings (if running different injectors to stock only)? Is it running MAP sensors? Are they selected (think they are by default but cant remember)? Are the MAP sensors getting a vac/boost source from the correct spot?

Start simple and work your way up. I'm guessing you have checked Sensor/SW check for any faulty sensors etc?

Which FC version are you running? L or D jetro?

If the previous tune on there is running quite different variables compared to your car then most likely it would struggle to run after starting. You will need to revert back to a base map on the ecu or something so you can at least start the car.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
