So i have been doing a build putting a rb25det from my written off r33gtst into my e36 BMW. It all starts and runs well apart from stalling when i give it a rev over 2000rpm. The motor is mostly stock. Aftermarket turbo, FFP and that is about it running stock ecu. The AAC has be cleaned idle set to 900rpm, im just abit lost on what would cause this to happen as there was no issues when it was in my 33, i hoped someone could give me some ideas to what could be causing this.

Thanks.

You should be getting between 35to maybe 40 pounds of pressure on the fuel rail, and as for voltage any sensor that's going to tell the engine to shut down make sure it has adequate voltage ie coils injectors knock sensors things of the such 

1. Check fuel pressure at the rail is 43-45 psi without vacuum connected on reg(block the hose off so no vac leak)
2. AFM is clean & plugged in and is around the same distance as factory away from turbo.|
3. Coils are getting 12V and grounded correctly.
4. Alternator is generating greater than 12.8V at idle
5. Fuel pump is wired and gets 12v & a good ground


Will most likely be one of these but also depends on how the loom has been wired into the bmw

thanks, i still need some parts to set up the fuel reg but will check asap. thanks for the psi stats.

will go though and check all the volts on all those parts.  I am confident that they are getting what they need, but will go over it over the next week. I am leaning towards the AFM problems so i am trying to get one i know works ans see if that changes anything. will update once i have done that.

thanks again for the info and ideas every one.

    • Um. No. Since Matt introduced the TIM it has become a lot easier to deal with the consequences of changing K for AFM and injector swaps. Then, tuning is a f**king doddle. No-one needs to know or care how many grams of air are flowing or any other bullshit. Need more fuel in a cell? Add more fuel. Need more timing in a cell. Add more timing. Need to adjust any of the other tables for warm up and so on? No harder than anything else. Sure - it's not an ECU system for starting from scratch on an arbitrary engine. But then.....it was never supposed to be, not recommended for, and almost never used that way. So.... On your engine, in particular, Nistune/Nissan OEM is about as sophisticated and difficult as banging 2 rocks together. Those ECUs are primitive and simple. There is nothing difficult there. I learnt Nistune from scratch, created new maps with extended axes, interpolated/extrapolated the original maps onto them and tuned my RB20 (basically the same ECU as your 26 ECU) all by myself, more than 20 years ago. And that was long before even TIM.
    • Set of knee pads for a R34. Will fit every model I think. Comes with everything except the rubber covers for the bolt holes. Still in great condition. You will need to drill holes to mount these or use double sided tape. I can do free shipping and will be shipping from the Netherlands with tracking.
    • Nistune needs something like an entire excel spreadsheet in which you build an abstraction layer that converts everything from real units you can actually measure into all of the various tables. The number of unexpected dependencies hiding in how the Nissan ECUs do math is a pretty impressive optimization trick for 8-bit MCUs but good god is it awful to actually work with in practice.
