Hey guys. My GTR has done 130'000 kms and now that i have a small cold idle problem i thought its time to clean the injectors anyway so i can be confident they are ok before i start changing anything else.

I read peoples posts here about aftermarket injectors but i think the Standard ones will satisfy my future needs. As long as they will be as good as new once serviced.

Ive got some questions...

Would a 89 GTR have top feed or side feed injectors ?

Is $180 ok price to clean/test injectors? (i will be supplying them the fuel rail with inj)

Which way is easier to get the fuel rail out. Remove the plenum or leave it on ?

Do i need to buy some o-rings or something when putting injectors back in ?

I read here inlet manifold gasket is $85. this is ridiculous if its true. Might just use loctite 515

A GTR would have top feed injectors.

To clean and test flow your injectors, it's about $40 per injector. Six injectors make it about $240. I would say that $180 is a good price to get them cleaned and tested.

And it's a good idea to get new o-rings when you put your injectors back in. Some have got cheap o-rings from supercheap auto and they've leaked. They recommended genuine Nissan items.

I'm not too sure about your others questions mate.

leave the plenum on

just remove the two bolts that hold the fuel rail in

you also have to remove the breather hose that gets in the way and all associated vacuum and fuel hoses (obviously)

Removal and install is too easy.

Common practice is to get them flowed, then place the highest flowing ones in at the rear to combat the unequal plenum flow. Agree with ^^ above, OEM rings and insulators as AM ones have leaked on me before. Little pit of petroleum based lube on install to keep them supple.

Cheapest inst always best. I have heard / seen some dodgey operations, with home made inj pulsing units and apprentice mishandling. Also please keep in mind they 18yrs old and new direct fitments SARDs are like $110 each

Ta

$580 delivered from nengun for Sards thats extremely cheap.

Sard also have a lot of their range in twin sprays now. Of which I've seen a set of 800cc twinspray sards work extremely well at idle/low rpm; excellent atomization and great fuel economy. I was a little skeptical from the old sard single spray squirters. :thumbsup:

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
