I am wiring my rb25 into my 89 s13. Here is what is going on. When I turn the car on the fuel pump turns on. then when I turn the ignition to start the starter turns the engine over but no spark and no fuel from the injectors. I have pulled coil pack 1 and there is no spark. I have double checked all my wiring to match the "8 step guide" but no luck. does anybody know what might be wrong?

make sure your ECU is getting the signal from the ignition switch to turn on and start working hehe.

i belive its a big red/black or black/red wire at the m63/f3 plug under the dash. should have battery voltage with key on engine off.

someone confirm the location of the wire if possible, my service manuals arent in front of me

you want a real rush wait till you build your own engine and have it start
