HI all

Well i had time today so i went ahead and fitted my new FLYEN FPR and well that was the easy art, no big deal there.

So i primed to lines, no leaks, BONUS.

Started the car, good, everything runs ok.

As the car ideled i turned the seting up to 40psi, and all still good, no leaks ext.

So went for a drive annnnnnndddd

NO BLODY GOOD MATE. The car simply runs out of puff.

So went home, all lines still good, ok what is going on. SO i ran the car, got the motor to 6000 rpm and the fule pressure drops off. NOw this was under no load, so not sure what is going on. Is it not suppose to insrease with boost pressure. I know it had no load, but hay.

So how do i fix this?

What pressure should i be running? and has anyone got one of these installed? ARE they any good or did i get ripped off?

Also, can somone post a pic of their installation, and maybe a DIY just to double check mine.

THANKS

HELPPPPPPPPP

it does go up and down, but it moves more then 4psi, it propably dropps of to about 30psi, not sure. I will install it again once i have more infor. For now the setup is all inplace, i just reinstalled the stock system, and swithed the lines over.

hi, yeah i still have the stock pump, but the weird thing is the car runs fine with stock FPR no probs, no splutters, starts fine ect.

I am not sure if the reg may be faulty, or what. The only other things is the way the new REG line connects to the fuel rail, it has a bolt on adaptor plate, with an O ring seal, but it seams ok.

One question. Near the fuel filter on the return side, there is some funny check valve or something, what does that do?

So can somone post some pics of their setup to compare my FPR setup.

Thanks.

PS. What psi do the stock pumps handel, and what flow?

Why did you fit the reg if there was nothing wrong with car before hand?

well basically, i had about 4k worth of parts sitting on the floor of my garage for about 6 months, as i had no car then, just the parts.

Now i have the car, i am slowly puting things in.

I fitted the FPR as i am installing my SAFC II this week, and once the FMIC is on, i am going to run 12 psi. Seing as most skylines hit RR about then, i am going to trick the computer by leaning out the map on the SAFC II and then bumping the fuel pressure back up to make sure it still has correct flow.

I cheacked for vac leacs, and all seams ok, the fuel pressure decreases with vacume ect.

I am thinkg that maybe it's not a 1:1 FPR and hence once on boost it runs toooo ritch. Not sure.

Maybe i go and get a nismo one and bolt that up instead.

ONE MORE THING, does it matter if the reg is not horizontal but vertical, can that couse any problems. ie. the inlet is 90 down and the outlet is horizontal.

pressure valve?

which one, the tank bypas one. Well i think i might get a new pump anyway, but i don't understand why the stock reg at 38psi, runs fine, and not at 40 psi on the new reg.

Strainge.

ANy other ideas.

Has anyone found a simmilar problem before?

It shouldn't matter which way it is mounted - its simply a diaphragm with variable pressure applied to one side.

Free revving at 6k is unlikely to produce any boost, so the fuel pressure won't rise too far. And a constant free-revving 6k will still likely have a fair bit of vacuum happening in the plenum. So, again, the fuel pressure won't rise too far.

Really stupid question - you did connect manifold vacuum to the new FPR?

yes i connected the vacume in and yes it's a rising reg, as in the vacume line as boost comes in provides extra pressure for the injectors.

however not sure what the rate is 1:1 or 1:2 and so on. MYBE the rate is too high and flods the motos, like i said, it's fine to drive off boost, no problems AT all, drive round all day, aslong as there is no boost.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Did you panel beat the dents or have you tried to repair this only using filler?  Is your sanding block soft/flexible and is following the shape of the panel rather then just knocking down the high points?

      I haven't knocked them down yet. I think I made the repair more complex than it should have been. I had rock chips combined with waviness and dents and I tackled it all in one because it was near each other and just end up wasting a bunch of bog lol. I'll knock down those areas and see how I go. And yep what you are saying at the end is correct. I think I might be sanding the top of a steep hill then my sanding block falls into the dent and gets rid of the guidecoat if that makes sense. Though shouldnt unless I'm covering too big of an area with not a long enough block. I'll try something new and provide some updates. Getting there though! Thanks as always.

      Yeah makes sense, hard to comment on your situation without seeing what your doing. I was talking generally before, I would not be looking to randomly create low spots with a hammer to then have to fill them.  It's hard without seeing what your doing, it sounds like you are using the guide coat to identify low spots, as you're saying the panel is still wavy. I don't see how you're not ending up with patches of guide coat remaining in a wavy panel? Once the high spots are knocked down to the correct level, surely to have a wavy panel you need low spots. And those low spots would have guide coat still in them?

      So I'll put filler past the repair area a bit to make sure I don't miss anything. Then I'll block it until it's almost level, put the guidecoat, then keep blocking until it's gone. Then it's still wavy.  In regards to hitting the panel, I saw this video might give more context - Skip to 0:47 he knocks it down. But yeah I'm sanding until the guidecoat is gone then checking because otherwise my filler is still well above the bodyline. Unless what you're saying is I should put guidecoat around it early, surrounding the filler then stip once it's gone?

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I refreshed the OEM injectors with the kit and connected it up. It now ideals okay even with the IACV removed. Driving still has the same cutoff issue like the 550cc injectors so the issue is somewhere else. I bought FPG's Fuel Pump Hanger. I will be installing it next, but it is not as straightforward as I thought it was with my limited wiring knowledge and no instruction on the specific model I purchased (FPG-089). I also got the incorrect billet clamp as I could not find info on the OEM sizing.
