Hey guys im going to be removing my injectors this week and just wanted to know the best way to get them out. As in do i have to take the plenum off or is it possible to get them out with it on. Also if i have to take the plenum off, can you get a gasket from nissan australia for one?

By the looks of the r33 injectors, all i have to do is get the 2 screws out and pop the injectors out.

Car is an R33 GTST.

Thanks, Mike.

Not that simple I'm afraid.

You can get them out without taking the plenum off but it usually takes the same amount in stuff around time if you do it that way anyway. The injectors need to be removed in a specific way. Take the caps off, turn them sideways (so they face the end of the rail) and then grab a LARGE screwdriver, place it between the base of the plug and the rail....make sure t's right in there...then twist. Out she pops. Repeat 6 times lol.

The tricky part is on re-install....you MUST drown the injector seals in lubricant and lube up the injector tubes (in the rail) otherwise you risk pinching the o rings. Don't forget to swap the old o rings to the new injectors or get some new ones. Place the injectors in their respective hole and push hard....if lubricated properly they should POP into place.

The gasket shoul dbe able to be re-used for the plenum if you unbolt it....it is made of rubber so give it a LIGHT coat of sealant on re-assembly.

Simpler is to simply remove the throttle body (after removing X-over pipe), then remove 3 bolts holding the rail in place.

I think, from memory, you need to pull some of the plumbing above #1, #2, but that will be obvious when you are doing it.

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
