My E30 LS1 Drift Car

[Jezza]

So the lack of updates has been due to spilling water on my laptop and having it kaput on me. Square trade covered the cost of the laptop so its all good. What I've gotten done so far are the coilovers, driveshaft, added an fpr, akg short shifter, and started working on the harness. Although I had to return the akg shifter to get swapped with a new one since the baseplate had the wrong threads for some reason. The spring rates for the coils are 550 front and 800 rear if anyone is curious. Basically I'm just trying to work out where I can get my DME flashed to remove ews and some other things.

Keep up the good work. I like where this is going!

Thanks!

I got the Bride seat mounted today using the Massive mounts that bolt directly onto the factory rails. My Bride was a little thin so I had to use some spacers but it worked out perfectly. Wiring is pretty much done, DME should be back from TRM within the week, I really want to try and get this thing started this weekend. Ill update with some pictures tomorrow.

So close to getting the car started. At first I had no fuel getting through the lines. Since I had used a walbro pump from my s13 I had to switch the positive and negative connections because the pump was actually running backwards. Now the car is cranking beautifully and there is fuel getting to the rail but it still wont fire. I triple checked my wiring and grounds but everything checked out. Thats when I kicked myself in the balls because I realized my cam sensor was MIA. Off to get a sensor tomorrow and hopefully I can get this thing to run!

Ahhh still no spark, Im running out of ideas.

So close man, you got it!!

[Jezza]

Thanks for the motivation lol. Right now I cant get the injectors to fire. Ive got fuel and spark now. Its so close, spraying some starter fluid in the intake gets it to sputter but the injectors will not fire.

Why wont my injectors fire?!?!

Are you sure the CAM sensor is plugged into the right connector? I know that you said you double checked your wiring, but I recall that being a common mistake people make.

[Jezza]

Yes I saw that as well but I couldn't even find another connector to plug it into. Would a fluke in my temp coolant sensor stop the injectors from firing? All I did was splice the brown top connector into the harness. Also I don't hear the ecm relay clicking. Ive switched it with a know working relay but still no click.

Going to Bo's motor works in Tempe today to see if he can help me out.

Awesome look forward to see that thing on the track. I have mine super eta for drift too but compared with your s52 and the extras you have I am well back behind you :) GJ.

Thanks appreciate it! You still have one up on me though as your car probably runs haha

[Jalves619]

I keep coming back to this thread, hoping you're updating it because it runs. I've heard great things about Bo's though.

[Jezza]

Sorry for the disappointment, Im getting frustrated at this now. Ive been through the entire ETM for this motor. I don't see any flukes in my set up. I have confirmed all plugs and my c101 to x20 connections. What I did today though scares me a little bit. I found the pinouts for the injectors on the DME connector, grounded them and what do you know, the injectors fired perfectly. From what I have read this means my DME is fried. Tits....
