ahhhh lol i just looked again and i saw that there is more, what do they do/what r they for?do they just provide power to the injectors? sorry im new to liner engines and i didnt even know were the injectors were, now i now lol. reason i ask is cos they vibrate/tick wen the engine is running. well i think its them neway

Yep they probably tick when the engine is running, most if not all injectors do. Nothing to be concerned about, they all tick.

The ticking means there working, well its more or less the injector opening and closing, thats the ticking. There spring loaded inside, and its the plunger inside of the injector that moved up and down to allow fuel into the cylinder, I think thats where the ticking occurs!

Plunder opens and closes according to the signals from the ECU.

The plugs to the injectors do supply power to the injectors as well as signals from the ECU about how much fuel to spray in to the cylinder, when and in what order. Those signals are made up from various other things such as airflow (AFM or MAP), throttle position (TPS), coolant temperature sensor, voltage sensor, engine speed sensor etc, etc..

Sensors do all the reading (sensing), and the ECU does the calibrating. I think thats the correct wording!

thnks man, like i said, im not used to the tecnicals of these hi-tech engines (well high tech to what im used2 lol)

that helps at least i no it aint serious. so im guessing if u undo the screws wher it plugs in2u cn take out the injectors and thats how u put in aftermarket injectors (say 550cc-800cc injectors?)

Basically yeah!

Will have to get the car tuned though, so after market ECU, either stand alone or fuel only, or a REMAP of the standard ECU which is starting to get phased in with the R33s.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
