hi guys, i tried a search. just a quick question....

is there an fpr that will be easier to fit ( or any benifits ) to the rb25det?

sard, malpassi.......etc

Malpassi's are good for paper weights and are a good band aid fix for leaking injectors. Sards are very good, but the standard FPR is just as good(just doesn't have any adjustment). Why you need a FPR?

rob... hopefully getting bigger turbo soon and i'm under the impression that i can use a fpr to get a few extra kw's. i have 200rwkw now with pfc standard turbo 10 psi.

Can i max injectors and afm and get about 230rwkw with fpr and turbo?

will be getting z32 afm and injectors ( i cant afford them yet )

Thanks for the info Plasticstan ;)

Nismo is definately the way to go if you are after bolt on simplicity, and it works well.

Be careful stretching stock injectors, I have seen so many RB25s go bang because they push the fuel system to the limits - its a shame because the RB25 can handle decent power if you just do things right and dont cut corners.

Another use for fpr (other than stretching the stock injectors) is to dial up the correct base pressure for aftermarket injectors. Sard, Nismo, HKS etc all rate their injectors at a base pressure (at idle) of 3.0kg, instead of the stock 2.55kg. The sard 550cc injectors, for example, are only rated at 520cc with base fuel pressure at 2.55kg (this is from the AP engineering site)

I asked a japanese performance mechanic to check my car to see if I was missing anyting - internally stock rb25 with 320rwkw. He suggested I should fit a fpr to bring base fuel pressure up to 3kg (sard injectors) - It was explained to me by him that using 3kg was 'best' for idle, fuel correction, accel enrichment etc when using power fc.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
