Hey Guys

I bought my r32 a few days ago and took it to my mechanic yesterday... he said everything is fine except the fact that my centre bearing (the big tube) needs some holder or somehting i had it writen on paper, and one of the fuel injectors is leaking fuel on engine!

How dangerous is this fuel leakeage and also how much are new ones. He said it'll cost around $150 for him to install it and roughly around $100 for injector but hes not sure for jap cars. Also, how much is the centre bearing support thing whatever its called? Where can i get these parts?

Thanks in advance!

You will probably find that the injector seal is the source of your leak not the injector itself. Not sure how they are set up on your car but on the RB26 it's an easy job to replace the seal - the seal itself should not cost any more than about $2!!!

Go to a place that just does fuel injection - I would be surpised if it costs you more than $50 to sort out:)

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
