GTR injectors will be fine for the 2530, but injector size doesn't really depend on the type of turbo, more on the power your making and the boost your running, also what engine your running it on.

Best to post some more specs up as well as a power estimate your hopinh for so you can get a more detailed answer.

GTR injectors a fairly big and support a fair bit of power, but my understanding of "fair power" and your understanding could be a few hundred KW out.

Not sure on the dump pipe, again would depend on the car.

Car is S13 , RB20 , forward facing int. fmc. HKS2530, PFC for RB26. Looking for what ever it can make maybe 300rwh, not going crazy, trying to keep it a driver. I know from reading the 555 would be over kill.so I thought I would ask. Thanks

Stock injectors usually get high into there cycle up around 210 - 220rwkw, making them more likely of failure so yep, best to upgrade for sure.

GTR injectors will be fine for 300rwhp.

R32 GTR injectors with a resistor pack are a good upgrade for RB20.

Thank you, that's the answer I was looking for. I also do have the resistor pack,saw the write up for installing the pak. 180boy

Awesome!

Good luck with it all man, post up your results when you get it up and running.

you'll find your factory injectors will be good up to 230rwkw, and the HKS2530 will run outof puff at about there too.

220rwkw would be fine with factory injectors.

I've even heard of people running 240rwkw with factory injectors maxed. Then if you want to take a risk, get a FPR?

    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
    • The old approach was to fill the cylinder/chamber with a length of rope pushed in through the sparkplug hole. The new approach is to connect compressed air to the sparkplug hole and fill it with enough pressure to push the valves up. Doing either of these things with the head on and the engine in the car is a lot less pleasant than doing it properly.
    • Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?
    • One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching
    • Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.
