ok swapping in a s13 sr in a s13 calum ecu 650cc injectors and z32 maf only things that arent stock. ok the car would start then die. so i decided to pull off the fuel rail which has pressure, then i pulled off the coil packs and then the CAS now when i first start to rotate the CAS the 4 injectors will fire a short small squirt of fuel then after that if you continue to rotate the CAS, like the engine was running, no fuel squirts again, although all the coil packs fire at the appopriate time. then if you stop rotating and start again the injectors will give a small squirt. all injectors have 12v and they get the ground signal at first then nothing. all injector signal wires are ok, checked with a ohm meter. any ideas? thanks!

I know this sounds stupid, but I bet your fuel lines are crossed. I did the same thing when I swapped my engine. If this isn't a swap then maybe check your pressure at the rail. Any ways good luck!

from fuel filter that line goes to the middle hard fuel line on the manifold. the line from the fpr goes back to the tank.

cam angle sensor (equivalent to a distributor)

I don't think the squirts of fuel you're getting have much to do with randomly adjusting the ignition timing like that. Verify your wiring at the plug under the dash / above the ECU.. that part of the harness is what carries the injector pulse signal.
