ugh such a gorgeous kit :yum:

Well crap. Can't get the car to start. It turns over strong but won't fire. Scavenge pump is working and I believe I can hear the fuel pump prime. No engine codes. Can't find any missing connections. Not sure how to track this down :(

Did you load the tune? Did you get the fuel pump in and connected correctly? It's most likely a simple problem.

Yup loaded the tune. The scavenge pump is loud as hell so at first I couldn't tell if the fuel pump was priming. I disconnected the scavenge pump and turned to ACC on and heard a short noise come from the fuel pump area that I assume is the pump priming.

You did install the 340lph fuel pump? I don't think you can hear it inside the fuel tank.

Sent you an email on things to check. The scavenge pump will be very quiet once engine oil starts going through it.

Yeah I installed the new pump. I hear something from that area when I first turn to ACC on. Not sure what else it would be.

Thank you sir ;)

Confirmed the fuel pump is working. It sprays fuel when switched to ACC on.

I'll be back home in a few hours to work on it some more. Can't find any missing connections but I'm going to keep looking. Was thinking of pulling a plug and getting someone to crank the car to see if it's making spark. Bad idea? Going to check all the fuses first. GTR plugs come with the proper gap set already, right?

Is there a good way to check if the injectors are working?

Fuel pump is good. Tested it this morning and sprayed some fuel in a bucket.

Spark plug gap would not cause this non start condition, and they are gaped properly out of the box. I also emailed you on the harness....it is easy to forget to plug the injector harness to the main engine harness..double check that. You can pull the spark plugs to see if they are wet. This is the best/safest way to find out if the injectors are working.

Will do. Should be home in a couple hours and will report back on what I find :tup:
