*sorted for the time being* :P

Hey guys, I'm in the market for a pair RB20DET injectors for my R32 GTS-t as one of them has started leaking & another needs to be replaced.

*i know this is the wrong section - but i need them asap - so i'll try here before i put the ad up on the WTB section*

I wan't to get this done as soon as possible, as this is my daily drive.

From what i have read, the one's needed are: Standard injectors are red, they are a JECS injector and

the number on the side is A46-000001 & are a 270cc high impedance type.

If anyone has any, brand new or second hand (good wokring order), please let me know ASAP - I can come and pick them up.

Cheers,

Steve. :(

BTW - here is a picture of the leak:

are you sure the o-ring hasn't just broken? I had that happen and at idle i would get a very small spray/leak....which created a puddle on the garage floor after a minute of idling :)

My leak hasn't gotten that extreme....Could be that i suppose, but i also got told that my injector is unserviceable - so i'd personally rather get a good working order second hand unit (which wasn't that expensive) than trying to service my injectors.

I'll get back to you guys when i get the old ones taken out :rofl:

Cheers,

Steve.

if your mechanic suggested to replace the injector without first diagnosing if it is infact the problem then i would be going elsewhere :)

what i did was take it to my mechanic, he then pulled out the injector, found the broken o-ring, looked at the injector (a nismo 555cc one in this case), replaced the o-ring, and pressure tested the fuel system to (i think) twice the required working pressure and all was sweet.

IMO, buying a second hand injector is cheap, but no point if the problem isn't identified with certainty.....

Fair point. Was no mechanic, just some responses to my photos - it looks as though the body o-ring between the plastic top and metal body has melted or something and got unstuck, if that makes sense? - i dont think that can be replaced? I've had a fuel flow and pressure test done recently which all came out OK. I'll get to the bottom of it.

Thanks for your replies :)

BTW, have you got any photos of the injector before it got repaired?

Cheers,

Steve.

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
