R32 Fuel Injector Resistor

[CanadianGuy]

Well was troubleshooting what sounded like an rpm limit being set on the car just as it was building boost and noticed my wastegate is open at idle.

As I was using a prybar to put some pressure on the rod to see if I had any binding doesn’t it slip and end up hitting my fuel injector resistor mounted on the passenger side firewall HARD. Checked all my wires and everything’s good but now the car won’t start 🙃

Upon initial turn of the key it sounds like it’s about to start for a split second before it just cranks. Strong smell of fuel, car has spark. 

Now I’m assuming my smacking of the resistor messed something up internally and the injectors are dumping a ton of fuel (plugs are wet and even QuickStart/ether won’t do anything after cranking a few times it’s so flooded) 

This make sense in other people’s minds before I drop the money on a new resistor? Car went from idling mint to not starting at all after that one slip

If it has two wires, it's your fuel pump resistor and not an injector resistor pack. I have one laying around I can sell you cheap.

Yuh. R32 RB20s do not have an injector resistor pack. That is for RB26s, which use low impedance injectors. And there are 6x resistors in it, because there are 6x injectors.

A single resistor can't handle 6x injectors.

Thanks everyone, it does in fact only have 2 wires so it’s the fuel pump resistor (still new to skylines and RBs as you can all tell haha) my symptoms still make sense?

im getting fuel pressure at the regulator (has an aeromotive with a gauge) and can hear the pump running

Car wont idle without the resistor in place. You can also bypass it. If you need one meanwhile, message me. Cheers.

Thanks! Tried to send you a message but I must be too new still, if you can send me one I’ll probably take that resistor off your hands
