Hi All!

Well after a very long time without my R32GTR due to a rebuild as I blew my rear turbo causing the pistons to get scroed badly :wub: , it is now finally back on the road.

So far I have got new forgies and rings, n1 oil pump, n1 water pump, main and big end bearings, polished head and crank, stock rods, new timing belt, new r34n1 turbos, apexi pods, trust bov, exhaust from front pipe back etc etc.

I am running it in at the moment but its still got the stock ECU in it at the moment. I am definetly getting a PFC and boost controller which will be my next mods, but is it necessary that I buy a new fuel pump(bosch 044) and injectors(Sard 700cc) before i get the power fc/boost controller installed and tuned? Or could I get away with the stock injectors and pump? Also what boost controller do you guys recommend?

Appreciate any opinions and advice! :D

Cheers

Phil

Thanks for the reply guys.

Well im looking at around 300rwkw. How many cc's are the standard GTR injectors?? So for max of 300rwkw what size injectors would i need so its not being pushed to its max?

Stock injectors ones will go to around 300rwkw... depends on the car it seems as some can and some cant.

You have pistons, stock rods are fine etc etc. So there is no worry about something breaking, i'd get injectors and work the N1's to thier potential

Thanks for the reply guys.

440cc

my injectors maxed at 370rwHP

yes i wouldnt be running stock injectors at 300rwkw day in day out. you are just setting yourself up for some heartache down the track. i say just grab a nismo pump, and a set of sard 700cc injectors, then alll your fueling worries are solved.

What about the bosch 044's? Are they any good? Im thinking of getting that pump.

Stock pump is fine however a 15yo pump may not be, so a nismo unit is ideal for your aplication. Stock injectors wont do the job you will need 550's, of course it will depend on how hard you want to push the turbos .

700's are overkill for the turbos you have but its your call as sards are very cheap .

I've got exactly the same set up and have gone the sard 700cc and bosch 044 route. No problems, plenty of headroom if you want to go cams down the line and as mentioned both parts are in the cheaper spectrum of things that will do the job.

I've got a Blitz dual sbc spec R and am experiencing some difficulties with getting stable boost. I know of other GTRs that use them and have no dramas so i'm guessing i need to do some thinking. Some guys swear by the ProfecBII and i've been told that this is for a good reason in terms of bang for your buck.

    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
    • OK, now we are ready to get started. You need to remove the air boxes on each side for clearance. The cover is straightforward, undo the clips on the top and lift the front cover out of the rest of the housing. If it is tight you can remove the air filters first. The rear section of the airbox is trickier. On each side you need to remove the Air flow meter wiring which is held to the airbox with a clip; you need to get behind the clip on 2 sides if you want to remove it without breaking it - unclip the harder side and pull on the clip with medium force, then unclip the easier side and it should pop out The airbox is held onto the intake hose with a spring clamp; you need to get a flat bladed screwdriver behind the spring on both sides and pop them outwards. When you have got them in the right unclipped place they will stay there and the airbox slips out pretty freely. Put a rag in the intake to prevent anything getting dropped in there, and also to prevent you seeing that the turbo seal is leaking oil (as they do). Then. The top of the radiator is held by a steel plate, it is secured by 2x10mm and 2x12mm headed bolts . Remove them and remove the plate Also grab the bushings that hold the radiator to the plate on each side so they are not lost!
    • Next, remove the upper and lower radiator hoses, both are held with a spring clamp. While you are under there, tackle the Auto Trans cooler lines.  Again both are held on with spring clamps, and as mentioned above you should cap them on the radiator side with an 8mm cap, and on the car side loop them with a length of 8mm pipe - this will stop you losing a dangerous amount of AT fluid during the rest of the job If you've been meaning to add a sender for AT trans temp, this is a great time to do it; put a sender fitting into the passenger side line as that is the inlet to the cooler/radiator.
    • Next you need to remove the intake duct (as with pretty much every job on these cars), it is a series of clips you gently remove with a flat bladed screwdriver. They do get brittle with time and can break, and I have not found a decent quality aftermarket one that fits (they are all too soft or flimsy and don't last either) but the nissan ones are a couple of bucks each (ouch).  Once the clips are off (either 8 or 10, I didn't check) you lift the intake duct out and will see the reservoirs Undo the line into the radiator side cap (some bent needle nosed piers are awesome for spring clamps) and then remove the 4x 10m nuts that hold both in place.  I didn't get these pics, but remove the line under the radiator reservoir (spring clamp again) then remove that reservoir. Then you can get at the intake reservoir, same thing, spring clamp underneath then remove it. BTW This is a great time to put in a larger (+70%) combined reservoir that AMS makes..... https://www.amsperformance.com/product/q50-q60-red-alpha-coolant-expansion-tank/ They also make an Infiniti branded and part# version if that is your thing
