yep that sounds like my car. has a hybrd turbo. an custon exhaust. na i hought it off some guy in milton keyns. i didnt even know about this site until i googled it! and i found my saviours. the guy i bought it off couldnt get it started either, he must have bought it off max power. he brought it to a garrage, they replaced ecus, everythin. i posted up my problems here, and got loads of helpfull replys. im a mechanic so i ran through everything, and i mean everything, so i got fed up with it one night, i loged on and went trough every post again, and i noticed i think norterner said to check the block connectors under the air box, as these were giving him similar problems in the past, it didnt look that bad, but i had tryd everything else, so i cut and rejoind every wire sepratly with seald connections, and first turn of the key nothing, and i look at the engin bay and kicked myself as i had left the plug on the first cylinder out. he he
so i tryd her again. and up she went. first go. i did backflips. awsome feeling. so now im prepairing her for prodrift series. ful custom cage, new bride stering wheel as it had a horrible star trek one. have an omex ecu to go in, also have a t3 hybird turbo. but not sure weter to put it in or not. and there my plans for the moment! any sugestions?

I had the same problem a long time ago and it was a single wire on one of those connectors under the air filter that had corroded and snapped off, i swapped that part of the loom and bingo

if your drifting it then steering rack spacers are a must on a s12, as the standard lock on them is shit

what suspension have you got on it?

just take the tie rod off the rack and put a s13 spacer from driftworks or somewhere (5mm or so) and bolt it back up, you need to adjust the tie rod - rod end by the 5mm to straighten the wheels back up and you should get the tracking re-done, but i havent got around to it yet

heres the thread i did on it - http://www.nissansilvia.co.uk/vbb/sh...light=steering
