If you have a stock car, you cant adjust your fuel delivery.

Clogged filters? Maybe you have the fuel lines missed up?

Hmm it cant be clogged filter.. i got fuel to the engine.. but i`M a bit unsure where the fuel hoses should be connected... I got a J-spec engine and its different from the Other-specs
The hoses from the filter goes to the pressure regulator?

hmm, i got nice flow from it after the filter.. ! but again does the hose from the filter goes to the pressure regulator?
And there is a little screw in the center of the regulator... what is it for?

No... the line from the filter goes to the primary rail... the FPR HAS to be the LAST thing in the fuel system before it gets returned to the tank...

On -j-specs, the lines are usually reversed from US models.

Just make sure that you attache the hose comming from the filter to the line that goes to the primary rail.

Pressure regulator is on the back of the secondary rail, which is mounted on the LIM, primary rail is smaller and mounted to the engine block (actually the center iron), pulsation damper is on the front of the primary rail.

sounds like its just running off the start primer map in the ECU and then shutting off..

Hmmmm..

Check that your fuel pump is still running after the car starts.. it might be that its building pressure when you turn the key as it primes, but that its not running after the car starts and the fuel pressure is dropping right away.. and it will die RIGHT AWAY if the pump cuts off.

Are all your other sensors and connections hooked up correctly?? The ecu should automatically run the pump before the car starts when you turn the key to "on", but it has sense that the car is running to keep the fuel pump operating.
