Are the big block connectors in the engine bay all clipped together nicely?

have checked the ones between the battery and washer bottle and are on properly

They have a common fault where the diodes in the alternator reg fail, feeding a bit of AC through, and that interferes with the cam angle sensor output. Try unplugging the alternator and see if it starts.

tried starting it with the alternator unplugged and still no go

your leads stuffed? Dont take much and over time the rubber perishes. Same as an oven element where it earths itself and leaks the energy through the rubber. 8mm leads will help you.

got coil packs so no leads and 1 and 2 have sparks but not 3 and 4.

[HELP! BH5 gtb not starting]

Tested the spark plugs and found...

No spark on number 3 but tested the coil pack and it works fine so must be the wiring ???.

Any ideas what could be causing this?

Any one had this problem before?

Tested fuel pump and working fine.

[HELP! BH5 gtb not starting]

sweet cheers man. would you be able to give me a hand installing it? not too confident doing it myself..

[HELP! BH5 gtb not starting]

Will give that a go in tomorrow. Also going to borrow a fuel pump to see if it will make a difference.

ecu reports 65, differential pressure sensor - they will swap that later but i highly doubt the engine won't start because of that

tried that this morning with no luck

[HELP! BH5 gtb not starting]

Was out driving lastnight when suddenly my car died on me..

Went around a corner a bit fast then suddenly the car stalled. Tried starting it back up but would not start, it starts to crank over and starts to fire then just dies ???. Luckily I was going down hill so push started it but couldn't accelerate at all, I mean accelerator pedal would be to the floor but it won't speed up, and when I push the clutch in it would stall again.

Plugged in the diagnostics and came up CEL 65 (differential pressure sensor) so called up Nick (Kamineko) around to help out. Swapped the AFM, Differential pressure sensor with Chris (MINTGTB) but still no go. Also disconnected the battery and no difference.

Been scratching our heads about this since lastnight and thinking it could be the fuel pump ???.

Any help on this would be greatly appriciated.

Also a big thanks to Kamineko for towing me back home lastnight in the rain! Will buy you some beers at some stage ;D.

[Dunedin Members Meet, Thursday April 1st]

[Subframe braces]

Can't seem to find any rear 22mm ones online.. where did you get yours from and for how much?

[Subframe braces]

what brand swaybars do you have? the biggest rear swaybar for the bh/be i could find was a 20mm adjustable one from whiteline..

If you want something that handles the corners like around town & on the track, you need a asymmetric tread, eg RE001 Adrenalin, or the Potenza RE050 - both are Bridgestone/Firestone tyres

the new goodyear eagle f1's are asymmetric and are awesome. they are a bit pricey tho. they have also been rated #1 in alot of reviews, just google it

[Quick steering racks]

mine is a 2000 but its exactly the same as MINTGTB's 99 bh5. I was thinking of buying a wrx v5 rack

[Quick steering racks]

would a gc steering rack spline bolt up to a bh5 (type b) or would i need a v7 or up?

[BH/GC brakelines]

Hmm I was going to buy funkytowns rear rotors and pads from his GF8 but I think they will be too small after that bit of info. I think his is v3/v4?

[BH/GC brakelines]

Bugger. Thanks for the help.

On another note are the rear rotors and pads the same as the GC's?

[BH/GC brakelines]

Hey all, was wondering if GC brake lines would fit into a BH? Was thinking of buying braided lines and they only have GC ones.

Just worried about the rears really as I have 4 pot fronts and the factory lines bolted straight up fine.

[HDi SBC TYPE-D SUBARU Boost Controller + Zerosports Sequential Controller???]

BeepeeNZ - I see you have won the auction for the acv-r (had it on my watchlist). Have you installed it yet? Interested to know how it runs alongside the zs controller.
