ok brace yourselves this could get ugly,here we go,just installed an sr20redtop in an 89 (ka24e) everything is in wiring harness was done by heavythrottle (so i know its right) the car cranks,has spark,and is getting fuel, the ecu and ignitor chip both work (tested on buddys car)like i said its getting fuel pulled plug and looked in the cylindar and saw fuel squirting on to the piston,pulled the fpr (fuel press reg.)and turned car on and fuel came out the end of the rail,put the reg back on and pulled of the return line (the one without the filter)turned the key on and no fuel came out of the fpr,so i thought "bad fpr" i have another, put that one on same thing,keep in mind that i still havce the ka24e fuel pump in,i called heavythrottle and they said that the ka pump WILL work just to get it started but doesnt recomend keeping it in (walbro255 will replace it) and they didnt know what the problem could be they suggested checking the o-rings on the injectors i havnt gotten to do that yet but im gonna install an external fpr with a gauge so i can see if im even getting enough pressure,

so there it is if you can help me or any suggestions will be greatly appreciated i am willing to pay for any info that proves to be useful, or if you are near the pa,nj area please stop by the shop and take a look for yourself
