recently tried to install some nismo 555cc inj's into a rb25 with a standard fuel pressure reg that was running about 50 pounds at idle with vacuum connected .

with the vacuum disconnected it bumped up to 65 pound . the problem is the with the duty and latency correction carried out i was unable to get a stable 14.7:1 mixture at idle , but just free revving it was all good. carried out initialization of the power fc and started again the best mixture reading i was able to acheive was 12:1 which is just way to rich at idle.

std inj's went back in and load std map and all was good .

had the inj's flowed to check flow rate and pattern but the asnu inj machine was unable to supply enough fluid to get a correct reading but with the pressure it was at the inj's flowed exactually the same . we even cleaned two inj's and reflowed them but made no difference.

I am starting to think that either there is to much fuel pressure at idle and the power fc cant correct the inj at that position and load of the map due to too muck pressure and flow or i have a faulty pfc.

I have a peirburg (a german brand ) fuel pump .

the inj's are the correct resistance and they are receiving the correct voltages .

What base fuel pressure's have other ppl set this size inj up at?

Most set em up, at factory pressure; 42-43psi base.

Your FPR could be broken. Check return line to tank is ok.

Replace with another known good one, as a test.

that is the question that i want a answer for .

but no idea .

I have a nismo adjustable reg on order to see it i can correct the base pressure .

are you gonig to try and make any more than 350rwkw? If not then throw the FPR in the bin and re-fit the factory item.

These threads are by the dozen "Why doesn't my FPR work" - answer is because they are crap and are not needed for lower power figures.

I have tuned so many cars, and seen crap AFRs, going up and down, all over the place. Fit the factory Item and back to normal.

My reading of the original post is that the adjustable FPR is going to be used to

combat too-high fuel pressures that exist on a system with a stock regulator:

that is, the OP thinks the original regulator may be broken...

Why doesn't anyone think the gauge might be crap?

Hey,

The gauge may well be crap and I'd definitely be checking

it against something that was known-good because the

change-back-to-stock fixes the problem. Use the gauge while

there is no problem ... if it's still reading 65psi, it's probably

broken.

If I had to guess at a problem based only on the information in

the OP I'd say recheck the latencies and correction factors.

BUT, my point was that using an adjustable FPR to adjust fuel

pressure for testing seems fair enough to me. I don't believe

that they're inherently evil :action-smiley-069:

thats right the stock FPR is running at 50-65 psi .

the fuel pressure gauge is brand new but again i will use a good known gauge to check aswell as checking the return to make sure its not blocked

i will be installing a adjustable FPR to bring the pressure down to 40psi to see if i can get a correct idle mixture .

is that high pressure to much for the larger nismo 555cc inj's to run at idle but ok with stock inj's?

I trimed the injs back to 66% and tried 50% still to rich.

I'm using Nismo 555cc injectors, with a powerfc, Nismo 275lph@72psi Fuel pump, and my corrections are set at 77%.

If your factory regulator is feeding them 55psi+ at idle, then your return is blocked, or your factory FPR is fooked.

They are pretty easy to diagnose. Guilt-Toy has given some good advice.

      Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣

      You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.

      Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?

      So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch

      It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
