Small clip of the first start, prior to figuring out the inject was stuck on. 2023-08-08 09.09.50.mp4

So for anyone who hasn't seen my facebook posts today my little mapping trip didn't go to plan - again. However i haven't came away with complete bad news as with the assistance of DynaTune we diagnosed the issue. It turns out my new loom has permanent voltage going to injector plug 6 which in turn floods that cylinder. Bummer, as its a brand new loom from wiring specialties. Good news is we didn't flood it before this was noticed and we now know exactly where to put attention on next to fix the issue. To test the injector harness we used this little glow plug which cam in handy.

Locked and Loaded - on the trailer ! Ready for its first official start and mapping session on Tuesday.

Would a UK breaker still work ? As its a left hand drive and american the harness will be reversed.

Yeh, Looks like its been used for parts on a previous life. Although never seen a zed that required replacement back end harness. Has it been cut at the fuse box or has it all been unplugged as its a big bloody harness to take out carefully.

I do not believe they are compatible plug wise, may work with a retro fit but likely not worth doing. Stolen off TwinTurbo.net http://twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/technical/view/1165129/The-three-types-of-speedometer-gauges-how-to-identify.html

Link G4+ or Haltech I have a Link G4+, although my zed is not fully working with it yet its very configurable with the free software. There is also a few zed owners who run them. Don't know much about Haltech but i've heard its good if not better than Link.

We have spark ! 2023-07-29 15.18.16.mp4

Just went for the larger capacity of what i already had. Think i will need to modify the battery tray to get this fitted without it sliding about. In a past life i modified the battery loom and reversed the battery connections, makes for a simpler connection in my opinion.

I think i need a new battery as the one i have doesnt seem to be holding the charge for all that long and i now believe that my spark issues and ecu resets are down to the voltage at crank dropping to low. What do you all recommend i should be looking out for and whats the largest battery dimensions that fit ?

That's what i'm thinking too, although the ECU is a brand new Link G4+. I'll need to source a donor ecu as i no longer have one i can use.

That's what I'm trying to figure out.

Looks like my zed has no spark and that's why it wont start. I think I've tested correctly but to be honest not even sure on that at the moment. After removing a coil-pack along with its associated spark plug i held it against the plenum to check for spark and get nothing. Tried with a few other coil packs and get no spark from them either. Its a brand new loom so was thinking i've missed something or maybe i've a blown PTU, Relay or fuse.

Great to see another project on its journey, look forward to reading up on whats done.

We all had a group buy for interiors with Simon a few years back, some of us waited so long and if you were lucky enough to get done then it was a great buy with quality workmanship. The rest either cancelled or gave up with him. I'm a lucky one and he redone my full interior too in black leather and original alcantara.

If your running a Link G4 whats the chances of sending me a copy of the map so i can copy the base settings !

Managed to submit 49 images and 30 or so receipts to Lancaster to try get my agreed valuation. Also booked the zed for the 8th August into its mapping session.

Yeh, thats the connector for the AC compressor, if there is a big void under that side of the engine thats whats missing.

My tuner said we need to get it started on the base map last time before i took it up to him. Its a big expense to get it trailer'd up just for me to bring it back. I've swapped out the oil just incase but as the turbo seal seems to be leaking i may need to pull the turbo now.
