Background info first: I have an RB20DET with FMIC, AVCR, Full exhaust KKR430 turbo and a few other bits. I had a SARD FPR sitting around from my old car and want to get the most out of the current setup without changing injectors.

I fitted the adjustable fuel pressure reg today and was wondering what kind of fuel pressures any of the tuners out there set them to as to get the most out of the standard injectors? What is the max pressure it should be set to whilst tuning? Thank you all for your help.

Hi M8

I have a GTR running 280ltr pump to 1000cc injectors and pretty sure mine is set to around 4bar. I haven't got a guage to check it at the moment though. Next on the list :domokun:

Be carefull as the pressure can either lean out or richen your mixture. I also thought standard fuel pressure was around 2 - 2.5bar. Need to check the manual really.

Yeah, standard fuel pressure is 2.5bar on idle according to the manual, it will be set up on a dyno so I am not worried about mixtures, I will be able to see all that, just wondering what people have set theirs to and what the most you can go up to before anything starts leaking.

    • 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
