Hello everyone,

Got a problem that made me pull my hear out, i literally searched whole internet didnt find anything that could help me. So here's what happened: after swaping rb25det neo into my r34, the engine could start just great, after removing the old ECU (rb25de neo) and installing rb25det neo ECU the engine wouldnt start, the starter was rotating it but the fuel didnt go. Checked every fuse and relay all worked perfect.

We put back old ECU but it didnt start even after that. Checked fuel pump wires and electricity was not going there. after rewiring ecu wires and forcing to let the fuel pump work, engine still didnt start not on rb25de neo ECU, nor on turbo ECU.

Please someone help me figure out what the hell wrong there :((((((

I suggest you take a very close look at the ECU harness connector. (Not the pins on the ECU). If all the pins look ok from the front of the connector then look at the rear end of the connector where the wires come into the connector. You are looking for wires that may have been pushed back too far out of the connector. They would be sticking back further than others.

If you see nothing unusual in the connector then look at the ECU pins on the ECU itself. 

If all ok again then do basic checks for Injectors firing, Fuel pump going. Spark at the spark plug. Also check that fuel hoses are around the right way by disconnecting the pipe from the filter outlet and catching the fuel in a can while someone cranks the engine for a few seconds.

Michael.

      Haha thanks Lith,  So it's currently working quite well and the torque reduction is setup and working phenomenal. It also got a custom torque convertor from All Fast in WA. Stall speed somewhere around 5500rpm unlocked but still with the lockup. The car went back onto the dyno after a 3yr hiatus (even with the dbw, and other mods completed in this time) managed to make ~515kw at all 4 hubs. Sean setup the Torque reduction which now sounds awesome and working well. We setup adjustable torque controlled launch control aswell.  Man what a feature. Especially when drag racing on street tyres I Managed to get out to the drags late last year and tick a huge bucket list item off of running mine and the cars first 9. Car went a 9.98 @142 Still had the young fellas car seat in the back aswell.  This was on 255/40/17 Nankang AR-1.  Currently the Turbolamik is still completing it's own torque calcs and managing shift times from there. Unfortunately emtrons can export is still a little restrictive to export the ecu calculated torque just yet but I have recently been suggested a work around that I just haven't had a chance to trial yet.

      Yeah its bad eh. Ey! Watch your mouth. Yep, spot on. The rear's are always gone too though from brake checking. I had them perilously close to a tree that we had taken down. I think the tree peeps may have taken it. Either for a trophy, or accidentally.

      f**kin' yikes! That insulation is the shittest stuff I have ever seen. You need to do an insurance job on that f**ker, pronto. WRT to the washer cover, I would have said that there'd have to be some at a wrecker, then remembered that it's a BMW, and reasoned that every single wrecked one would have been tailgating and so the front end would be trashed.
