zukiru Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I'm confused. What car are you hunting down ej25 heads for. For some reason i thought you had decided to ej this one. Do you have a spare stock turbo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rpholz Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share Posted April 13, 2013 Really hoping to fire this thing up on Sunday, so expect late night updates and poor overly tired grammar, is my work shift over yet??!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tizzle Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 (edited) I also am going to need a new hatch soon. My trunk is nothing like that though. Check out this auto wrecking database for your lid. Prices are surprisingly low, so shipping to FL might not be out of the question.

rpholz Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share Posted April 13, 2013 Huh, appreciate the heads up, looks like everything is a minimum of 400miles away, no surprise. They do list a white no spoiler/wiper for 150. Hmmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tizzle Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 I assume the lids are shaped exactly the same so the spoiler should transfer over after drilling a couple holes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpholz Posted April 14, 2013 Author Share Posted April 14, 2013 Yea, they are. no differences between 3dr or RX. it would be easier to make a mold for carbon fiber hatch without everything attached. ACC belts in. water pump for IC is wired. Thermoswitch in the rad is in. Fan is in. vacuum from intake to ecu is ran. Wireing is done, well except a 6" lead to a switch, put in a battery, all guages and what have you light up and are ready to go. tomorrow will be throw the halltech in, load my base map, check the tank, add fuel and turn key. dont expect to drive it tomorrow as i have 1 oddball tire on it and the shifter linkage is partially disassembled.

rpholz Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 GAAAHHHH! i can't get the coil to fire! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpholz Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 ok, correction when you first turn the motor over you get one strong spark, then nothing. any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyman03 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 how is the power to the coil? -Justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 igniter?distributor (swap in another one if you have it), it houses the crank angle sensor which i think the ECU requires to trigger spark? i've only seen two "go bad" and in both cases it happened on a motor that sat...coincidence or something inside gets corroded....

rpholz Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 Justin, I get 12v to the coil. I need to further test the igniter. Gary, the CAS is working as when I crank it over the haltech reads the rpms. Also I'm afraid I don't have another disty to quickly swap.

idosubaru Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Justin, I get 12v to the coil. I need to further test the igniter. Gary, the CAS is working as when I crank it over the haltech reads the rpms. Also I'm afraid I don't have another disty to quickly swap. Both times I had this happen - the distributors seemed to be working...I just found one post from one of those incidents and I see that I mention I did have spark and everything "seemed" to be working properly - both of those times the car started when i installed another distributor. I would have never tried it in this case posted below had i not seen it happen once before. not likely to be your issue but if you keep hitting dead ends on more likely areas might be worth a shot to clean your existing one out or find another to test. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/119886-xt6-turns-over-does-not-start-or-try/?hl=%2Bdistributor+%2Bstart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zukiru Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I also had a bad distributor that seemed to fire but it was making weak spark.... That was an 86 disty but still. Sorry you didn't crank it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpholz Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 ok so here is the update. CAS in the disty has been replaced Igniter replaced Pulled the disty and confirmed which wire is which. When you first turn the engine over you get 1v at the igniter causing a spark, it then immediately drops to .1v and stays there. Not sure where to look on this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpholz Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 Sent the map to haltech, they made a few suggestions, ill try it again in a few days, other than that I'm still at a total loss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
