I am about to put some new injectors in my GTR and want to replace all the O-rings and insulators / seals on the injectors. I've done plenty of forum searching and have found some info, but now I also need clarification on part numbers. The 2 different sets of part numbers seem quite a bit different so I'm not sure if they are the same thing or not.

First set of part numbers -

Injector Insulators: 16635-78A00, 16618-78A00 (assume front/rear, but don't know which is which not that it matters)

Injector O-ring: 16636-V5000

I rang up Parramatta Nissan and Hornsby Nissan for the price of all the above times 6 (one per injector) and was quoted around $220 and $180 respectively in total.

Second set of part numbers -

Rear O-ring - 16412F - $9.50

Rear Insulator - 16603F - $13.35

Front seal - 16603G - $5.35

Total $169.20. I forget where from but the thread was a bit old anyway so prices have probably gone up since then.

Both of threads said the part numbers were for a GTR so I don't know if they are the same thing with different part numbers or if someone is wrong or if there is a difference between 32-33-34 GTR's. I doubt the latter would be the case though.

Even the cheapest option above is a holy hell of an amount for 18 tiny pieces of rubber. Does anyone know the exact measurements of the 3 parts so that I could enquire at a fuel injection place for some after market replacements? This is just due for convenience so that I don't have to pull an injector out before I do my running around to find the replacements. Also are the insulators just standard O-rings as well? They look like O-rings in the photos I've seen but they could be a different shape (squared off maybe) or a different type of rubber.

Lastly does anyone know of a fuel injector place in Sydney that would be able to sell these things at a reasonable price? I

Hey Jim, we looked all over Aus aftermarket and couldn't find anything to suit. Even the rear o-ring took us ages to find something that matches OK, even then it is a little narrow.

front seal is similar to rx7 series 4 but not quite right either.

rear seal is more like a spacer you could run anything that is the right width and a snug fit. But since we had to buy the other 2 bits we went nissan for these too.

Part numbers and costs as follows:

Injector O-Rings	SEAL-O RING		  NI-16618-78A00		$7.40 ea	 x 6 = $44.40
Injector seals	  INSULATOR-INJECTOR   NI-16635-78A00		$10.39 ea	x 6 = $62.34
Injector seals	  INSULATOR			NI-16636-V5000		$4.18 ea	 x 6 = $25.08

All prices are trade. Add a little bit for retail prices.

After Duncan's post I bit the bullet and bought the set (at full retail from Hornsby Nissan for around $167), and also thanks to Sewid for putting up the part numbers he has, basically outvoting my second list of part numbers so I could confidently ask for the first list.

I put the new injectors in last night without a hitch and they are working great!

    • At least you're now aware of the problem and can come up with a solution. 
    • Dang. Keen for further updates when you get to it.
    • Welcome to SAU Thomas, sounds like you'd had a bit of a an unlucky start with the car, hopefully you get some better luck now!
    • 1. No need, it only gets used once then is locked in place by the nut 2. EN-62 point 6 shows the conical washer the other way around (BTW I know we discussed above, I hope you are changing the idler as well, while it is no guarantee the bearing is a actually bad, it looks terrible) 3. I'm not really clear on the question, are you worried because it was easy, not hard, to remove the custom timing trigger? As long as it doesn't spin on the crank (when the bolt is tight) all good 4. Yeah just make sure the brand is easy to read as it rolls past 5. The part number is on the listing under the description, 13023-42L00. Given there is a custom part on there for timing (presumably outside the cover), they may have decided to leave that off; I think I would put the washer in there as it also helps seal the timing case from crap getting in.
    • Hey everyone, I recently bought myself a 2001 Nissan Stegea M35, and I've had a few issues that I had to fix, my car would start intermittently and I had a bad rocker cover leak, after a couple days of looking I finally found a part number that interchanges with the OEM starter as the OEM starters at $1300 and I can't afford that, this starter was only $270 and I replaced the start and still had the same issues, I posted a video asking for help online and it went very well, some guy said it was probably a bad ignition switch so I took my dash apart and turns out my ignition switch was half screwed in and was loose, once it was tightened it fired right up, I found a local place called "Boost factory" and they sold me a part of OEM Nissan rocker covers, they were $600 which was a shocker but I couldn't find them anywhere else, so I installed them and fixed my oil leak as the old rocker cover was cracked and warped, I now need to replace my boost air inlet hoses as they have some cracks.
