Why did you buy a fuel rail?

The stock one if fine for over 400rwkw, and going by all your others threads your trying to do things all as cheap as possible... so this parts makes less sense than some of the others!

this may seem like an obvious question but what size and brand fuel rail did you buy? and what injectors are you trying to put in there?

standard RB26 injectors are 10.5mm.

i really dont know what kind of fuel rail! sorry its just like a generic type! its got 6-an fittings on both side and middle! im using stock rb26dett injectors but they are loose as hell in the hole in the rail! can i just use a bigger o-ring to make it fit? ill try to find it ill post a pic/link

unfortunately that is the problem you get with cheaper generic brand stuff. often they have poor fit and finish and are just generally not always 100% suitable. as for larger 0-rings you may be able to. try some and see if you can get some with the right ID and OD to make it work. but personally I'd just bin the rail and either buy a proper fitting one, or just use the stockie.

r31-thanks for the nice comments! no need for that! its my car/motor and ill do what i want!

So you either are or are not short of a coin.

Either way the ebay add says 2JZ... i mean, that isnt RB26 now is it?

Sell it, use the stock one.

It rude to question someone as to if they're low on cash, its none of your concern. You posted in most of his threads just questioning his intentions instead of providing any help at all.

He said the its the same rail but for a rb26, maybe the supplier simply sent out the wrong part.

No need to post useless comments that people dont want to read, learn to be constructive.

In his threads he has been stating he is trying to go all the cheap options.

Buying a un-proven fuel rail does not fit into this and is risky, and as it turns out... look what happened.

Might pay you to go back over past threads, as it seems you missed the majority.

dude, your missing the point...

your not helping anyone. anyway its not the first time someone has mentioned something about your attitude in people's thread, you didnt get the point then and you wont get it now.

let the thread continue.

Might help the poor guy develop some common sense.

ok the link i posted i was the fuel rail looks like!!! i didnt order that one/ or order it from the seller! it came from a company called bmpc here in america! it came in a box marked for an r32/33/34 so yes its for an rb26dett! i just want to know it there away to make stock injectors work! no need to bash my shallow pockets! i got the part of dirt cheap! just looking for help not bashing!

and another note r31 i will beusing a greddy emanage to run my car so is that good enough for your standards? or am i still to cheap?

If you got it for "Dirt cheap" then no real loss, just sell it on. Just use the stock rail (you wont like the cost of AN fittings to get it running anyway)

I would recommend really researching parts you need to make the power you want. The RB26 Dyno Thread is more then a page of braggin rights. You can browse many setups and get an very good idea of what parts people are using to make what power.

The search box will save you $$$ and ridicule.

Happy tuning :closedeyes:

if u do use the billet rail, u'll find u will end up spending 3x the cost of the rail itself, on braided lines & fittings

also if u do use the billet rail, u'll now need an aftermarket fuel reg.

    • OK, Step 3, if you need to remove the valve body, either to replace it, the TCM, or to do a more complete drain.  First, you need to disconnect the TCM input wires, they are about half way up the transmission on the drivers side. One plug and the wires are out of the way, but there is also a spring clip that stops the socket from sliding back into the transmission. On my car the spring clip was easy to get, but the socket was really stuck in the o-ring of the transmission housing and took some.....persuasion. You can see both the plug to remove (first) and the spring clip (second) in this pic Incidentally, right next to the plug, you can see where the casting has allowance for a dispstick/filler which Nissan decided not to provide. there is a cap held on with a 6mm head bolt that you can remove to overfill it (AMS recommend a 1.5l overfill). Final step before the big mess, remove the speed sensor that is clipped to the valve body at the rear of the box.  Then removal of the Valve Body. For this the USDM Q50 workshop manual has a critical diagram: There are a billion bolts visible. Almost all of them do not need to be removed, just the 14 shown on the diagram. Even so, I both removed one extra, and didn't check which length bolt came from which location (more on that later....). Again it is worth undoing the 4 corners first, but leaving them a couple of turns in to hold the unit up....gravity is not your friend here and trans oil will be going everywhere. Once the corners are loose but still in remove all the other 10 bolts, then hold the valve body up with 1 hand while removing the final 4. Then, everything just comes free easily, or like in my case you start swearing because that plug is stuck in the casing. Done, the valve body and TCM are out
    • OK, so if you are either going for the bigger fluid change or are changing the valve body which includes the Transmission Control Module (TCM), first you should have both a new gasket 31397-1XJ0A and a torque wrench that can work down to 8Nm (very low, probably a 1/4 drive one). You can probably get by without either, but I really didn't want to pull it all apart together due to a leak. First, you now need that big oil pan. The transmission pan is 450 long x 350 wide, and it will probably leak on all sides, so get ready for a mess. There are 24x 6mm headed bolts holding the pan on. I undid the 2 rear corners, then screwed those bolts back in a couple of turns to let the pan go low at that end, then removed all the middle bolts on each side. Then, undo the front corner bolts slowly while holding the pan up, and 80% of the fluid will head out the rear. From there, remove the remaining bolts and the pan is off. You can see it is still dripping oil absolutely everywhere...it dripped all night.... I got another couple of litres when I removed the pan, and then another few when I removed the valve body - all up another 4l on top of the 3 already dropped in step 1.
    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
