Hey guys, just wondering if i can get my gtr injectors flow tested while the plenum is off and the injectors are easy to get at......i have an r33 gtr and the injectors are yellow top (gtr ones 444cc?)

Does the car need to be running for the injectors to be tested?, and how much does this sort of thing cost normally?

Thanks.

P.s: I have uprated turbos on the gtr, and stock ecu, is it at all worthwhile upgrading the injectors while easily accessible anywyas?, my aim is around 300-330awkw max....

Injectors are ordinarily cleaned and flow tested on a bench rig.

There are "mobile mechanics" who can do the job - check Yellow Pages under "Fuel Injection Services" (I think).

If you upgrade the injectors, you will need a re-programmable ECU and a dyno tune.

Thanks, i may hold off on injectors right now, but they will never be able to work out injector duty cycles until the car is running right? how much should something like this roughly cost?p.s would it be dangerous to fit 555cc injector to a gtr without a ecu + tune?

thanks

I think it costs around $30 - $40 per injector.

The only problem with running upgraded injectors will be it will run RICH. That may foul the spark plugs, causing the engine to run even worse.

yes, injectors are not tested on the car. they are tested on an injector testing machine. and yes of course they can figure out duty cycle. duty cycle is an instruction from the ecu to the injector. not the other way around. they just run them at 100% for a set period of time and calculate the CC/min they are flowing at whatever pressure they feed them.

ive had injectors tested twice, both used the same method - they shoot the injectors into measuring tube thingies. They can write down the ml results but its hard to convert to cc/min unless they used the same fuel pressure as the car has standard.

for a gtr make sure they mark the lowest and highest flowing injector so you can put the best one in #6 and the worst in #1

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
