Hey guys, as ive been told by numerous people, a cheap injector upgrade is to go the gtr injectors for the rb20s.. However ive been told u need the rb26 resistor pack to run these?

Can anyone confirm this and tell me why?

Ive come across a set but the previous owner had them on his 20 and said he wasnt using a resistor pack? Why?

Thanks,

Steve.

Its becuase the impedance of the 2 injectors differs:

RB20det is low impedance

RB26 is high impedance

The resistor pack lowers the impedance of the GTR injectors to match (as close as it can) that of the original injectors.

However this shouldn't effect the firing rate, its more to save the injector drivers on the ECU from burning out.

You don't need a resistor pack - i don't have one with my GTR injectors, but it would ensure the longevity of the ECU by having one.

Dont attempt to run it without the GTR resistor pack or properly set up resistors

I burnt out the injector driver in my new Power FC from stuffing up the resistors

Mine only lasted a couple of days before blowing...

Hopefully can be fixed and I will be back up and running soon

yes you can use the gtr injectors ..

but get ya self a resistor park from a 2.4e r30 skyline .. same resistor pack (gtr) diffrent plug .

and make sure they are cleaned and flow tested as most gtr injectors have been sitting so long the dont flow 444cc

You can also just wire the appropriate sized resistors into the loom, it's what people do when they either can't find a resistor pack or the chumps want too much for them. Have a search and you should find the type you need.

Has anyone done a DIY thread on doing it like that? I have had a good rearch but every result came back explaing how to use the GTR Resistor packs

I used 6 10ohm resistors from jaycar wired inline but it still somehow fried the injector driver in the ECU...

Well whaddaya know?! it was in the DIY/Tut section!

I used that exact guide originally however found using 5r6 ohm resistors worked best next to the ballast pack.

Then did away with that and the resistors altogether, my stock ECU has worked over a year with no resistors - go Nissan! :D

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
