I was aiming a bit higher than 200rwkw..

Am running Denso 550cc's, came with matching plugs that needed soldering to the loom and also needed a couple of copper washers to chock the injectors up so they didn't pop out of the manifold.

Ive got the same injectors.

Question Bubba: why did you use the washers? Theres no where for the injectors to go, unless you change your fuel rail????

My tuner said it's a common problem with the older Denso made injectors (SARD etc), used ~2mm of copper washers around the neck of the injector (I think the rail end but i'll check when it's not nearly 40deg outside :/). Basically the injectors kept popping out of the manifold slightly when it came on boost (ergo leaking fuel), the washers just take up the slack and hold the injectors tight into the manifold. I guess this means they're a couple of mm too short..

Cheers bloke. Ill keep an eye out on them and put some washers in if need be. What material did you use, just copper washers?

Common upgrade would be GTR 440cc injectors...the will fit with abit of trimming on the connector and you will need a resistor pack from a GTR too...they would support numbers around the 250-270kw range comfotably...maybe abit more...

Wheezy: just copper washers from the box of assorted copper washers :cool:

limpus: I didn't want to screw around with resistors or ballast pack so bought brand now high impedance items.

alltheway: yes you DEFINATELY need a tune if changing injectors. I'm running my RB30 with 550cc injectors and z32 afm on a remapped rb20 ecu.

Ive made just over 300rwkw using 440cc gtr injectors on my 20, they clip straight into the original harness and rail, and as its been said if your using the std 32 computer you'll need to get a resistor pack wired into the injector harness

Nice numbers...i only said 250-270kw as a rough guide but its good to see they can be pushed so far...are you sure they clip straight on though? because i had to trim the keyways off the injector to get the connectors on...i believe many others here have done it too...resistor pack was needed as well....

I would have thought std Rb20 injectors would do the job, im currently making 215RWKW (not that it means a great deal as all dynos are different) but many people have made 200RWKW and over with std injectors without maxing them out

are you sure...my dyno guy told me my injectors will max out at bout 170rwkw

actually i could be wrong about the clips, my car came with them already installed, but trimming the keyway is no biggie :banana:

Can anyone confirm you dont need a resistor pack if you have a safc, just by turning the settings into the minus lowers the ohms reading therefore running gtr injectors without resistor pack.

Confirmation?

Pretty sure you still need the resistor pack if you have a safc.

If you are only chasing 200rwkw then i'd stick with the standard injectors and maybe bolt on a nismo fpr.

My Rb20 made 202rwkw with standard injectors on 16psi. But then again dyno's are different.

raZ1911 - yes a bad thing.

The computer will be firing the injectors at the same pulse width for all the injectors, so two larger injectors are going to let more fuel through in the same amount of time.

If there were such an ECU that could control individual injector pulse width - (MOTEC maybe?) tuning the thing would be a nightmare - you would want to be monitoring Air/Fuel ratios out of each individual cylinder to ensure everything was good.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Well, I'm tired. I'm tired because about 4PM yesterday, before today's appointment someone immediately bought my bumper. They couldn't get it any other day as they're on the way back to NSW. So I had to do that big GTR conversion I had been planning. Unfortunately, the information on SAU about what you need and how this is done is incomplete. So what should be a simple bolt on affair, yeah, it's not. Did you know if you use all GTR items the bonnet won't close? This little manuever sent me into about 1am the night before trying to dodge a way to get it closed. I will have to revisit this in the next few days  - or maybe not, I may let a body shop figure it out. It all needs to come up and my motivation to pull the bumper off is low. It also seems to hit things in the bay where the GTT bonnet didn't. Yes I used 100% new OEM GTR items. Today, I had the joy of driving to the dyno looking like this: Given I had roughed in the fuel and given sensible but pretty conservative timing, I didn't really bet on having the car drive out any real difference than when it drove in. Sadly due to a miscommunication and laptop fun and games (and almost bricking the dongle, prayers and firmware updates indeed), I ended up using HP Tuner credits to licence the car that was already licenced. So in the end my laptop was used. It turns out my butt dyno is still well calibrated after all this time. The 325kw was on 74% Ethanol, the 313kw line was on 98. The other line is the 'before' line which was 281kw. While the numbers are pretty low, they're pretty in line with what you'd expect. Even if US dynos bump the whole result up about 50KW, gaining 10-15% is similar gains.  The curve of the cam is pretty much spot on with what was discussed as well. All this said, it still feels bad to not see the number you secretly want to see. Even if the car drove great beforehand, and I knew pretty confidently the car would drive out much the same way it drove in due to the nature of a wellish dialled in LS1 not gaining much if anything at all from being tuned from where it was. As expected, the car isn't particularly sensitive to running it at anywhere between 12.0 and 13.0 - And the initial timing at 20deg and 12.0 made 308KW. So 3 degrees of timing, and leaning it out to 12.7 for 5kw, anything above stopped giving any benefit until E85 (which has an additional 2 deg as before). Car itself behaved entirely fine. I found out that 100C = 1.15V! IAT at about 7pm was 19C. I might mess with the bonnet mounting.. but given the REO NEEDS TO BE CHOPPED TO FIT A GTR BAR this is possibly something I may leave gathering (more) dust until it returns to paint jail.

      Did you use an electronic speedo drive? Does you speedometer read all the way to 180km?
