Injection perfection (bankstown airport) seem to have a good rep. They quoted me $33 an injector, being cleaned in a bath, and then thru 1 of the pulsing machines. $33 seems abit steep?

Another place at lidcombe (search thru posts abotu cleaning) said $22 an injector.

Let me know how it goes. Im looking to do the same, though just waiting til i decide if im going to clean these, or replace with higher feed unit.

Thats like $190....???? I hope that includes flow testing and new o-rings etc. Ill try them on Monday.

Its strange the things that stick in your mind, i thought $8 (aprox) for ultrasonic cleaning was close to the mark, so maybe $33 is for flow testing and new o-rings etc?

I had mine done by Jamie Waterhouse (4721 7227) at peach tree... he did my whole 100,000km service (I supplyed the timing belt though) and I think it cost about $600 all up. Have the recipts somewhere but he has always met (or been VERY close to) his quotes and has also done a good job.

He once had my car for two days (Friday Arvo, Saturday and Sunday morning) looking for a problem with a miss... he eventually didn't find anything after spending most of the weekend on it (he usually only does half Saturday) and when he gave it back he said... I could not find the problem... (Pressure tested and flow tested and all sorts of things... even had the fuel pump out) when asked how much I owed him for his time he said "nothing... he didn't fix a thing."

I noticed that I got a much more smooth power delivery and it felt to me like I got a power gain. I had the injectors removed when they were cleaned.

I have also heard good reports about Nepean EFI and they are just off Batt street I think?

Yeah , I see your point Ben.

Flow and pattern testing , as I understand it means: Pressurize each injector, activate it, measure the flow (in cc's) and pattern (like does it dribble or is a nice spray) [yeak OK that is not a very technical explanation]

Cleaning is seperate -

No point cleaning a stuffed injector !

It included new O-rings and Plastic tips (whatever they are called) and were ultrasonically cleaned, and flow tested as well as checking the spray pattern.

Let me check the receipt when i get home for the name, i only know it as the blue building near the gym

As for differences in driving, ill never know, they are GTR injectors going into my Rb20, along with a new turbo and ECU. So was more a peace of mind thing for the new setup

Roy,

Did you get the results for each test on each injector - like on paper ?? Or did they just say 'yeah they are ok'

If the former, can you let me know where you got them done ??

I need to test 6 Hi Flow pieces of shit injectors - prolly they are still stock which would explain my smallish engine issue.... Anyway that's another story....

Thanks mate,

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • 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?
