Hi all,

Well my Sard 800cc injectors arrived today (only took 4 days from greenline!) and i went to plug them into the std loom, but the plug on the loom has a different shape to that on the injector (loom is square, injector is round) also the plug that came with the injectors that replaces the std plug, seems to be upside down when 'clipped' onto the injector. Car is R32 Gtr.

Just want to know if i have received the wong injectors, or i've missed something.

cheers

Shane

yep same with our sards...side feed on rb25 had to rewire the plugs. Then the bottom of the silly plugs were fouling on the manifold and we had to shave the arse off abit so they would clip on properly. Note thats on a greddy manifold incase anyone else goes to put them on using the std fuel rail.

Shane you sure yours are 800cc, cause i check our sard boxes for the injectors we put into the 25/30 and it clearly states 850cc unless im blind or the boxes are wrong? Maybe top feed and side feed are different?

had the same problem with my 800's on my gtr... you hav to actually modify the injector slightly... get a stanley knife and trim of the two slot from either side of the injector where your plug slides down... you now can turn the plug around the right way...

The biggest direct exchange Sard injector is the 700cc item for the RB26, the 800cc items require the wiring of new plugs and also injector plug modifications, even with supplied plug.

Cheers lads. Pretty piss poor effort on Sard's behalf, they should fit straight in, and even the plug they supply isnt right!

Micheal, on the box it says 800. Heres a pic of the box and the injector & plug.

Also, does it matter which wire goes what side? (i havnt taken a look at the wires yet)

yes i had same problem wouldnt plug in properly had to shave as well that was on the standard fuel rail

didnt want to wait the few weeks from japan....Sards are normally always in the country a day away on overnight freight.

But anyother time would definetly go nismo items for thats true bolt on awesomeness.

maybe the $300 difference has something to do with it? :rofl:

I honestly bought these thinking they were a direct replacement, and that's how they are sold aswell. Spose its not too big of a deal, just a pain in the A.

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
