hey guys, im currently building my 25/26 and am using a greddy manifold and would like to convert from sidefeed to topfeed. im aiming for around the 500rwhp and will be using a hks rail, i noticed there is a 10.5mm (std) and a 11mm (oversize). is there really much diff and which brands make what size injectors? also there is the injector sizing issue, i was thinking around 700/750cc? i guess this would be enough to cope and wouldnt have to go to 1000cc's? what brands are good stuff? every1 tells me diff stories, i hear the 4 hole nismos are really good, then i know sard make good gear but ive heard dont use sard injectors :) any help on this would be apprectiated. am using a bosch 044 with surge tank and turbosmart fpr 800reg. thanks.

I am using the Sard 700cc injectors with 2x2530 turbos and they get up to around 80% duty cycle at full throttle and 20 psi boost. I haven't dyno'd the car yet (only road tune) but it'd be well under 500rwhp. I would think that you'd need to go larger for 500rwhp, but I am also running standard AFM's which max out, and I think once that happens the ECU will start dumping in more fuel than it needs just to be safe. So maybe my 80% duty cycle is more than it should be. Also I'm running the standard fuel reg, you can squeeze more fuel out of them with your turbosmart reg but I don't know if it'd be enough.

Speak to your tuner who would have a better idea about sizes and brands and how much extra flow your reg will get you. I have an adjustable Nismo reg but haven't installed it because I don't need it yet. I really like these Sards though, they're smoother than I expected and idle very nicely even when cold (when the ECU is behaving, it stumbles 2-3 times when aircon kicks in but it did that on the factory injectors too, need to re-program the PowerFC's idle soon). I couldn't tell these aren't factory injectors, and bigger injectors are meant to be a bit rough at idle/cruising.

I'm not familiar with the HKS rail, I'm using the factory rail (RB26) for these injectors if that helps at all.

700cc sards and stock fuel rail too. It's all in the tune. :/

Fuel pump setup will be a decider too in how much HP.

I was running 470RWHP at 17psi with 2530's and a sard 280L pump.

Injectors still had room left for more (500+).

Just go big straight up then when you want more power, as you will, then you have the fuel system ready.

I have 1000cc injectors, twin entry fuel rail, 2 x 044 pumps and a GTR pump filling the surge tank. This fuel system was on my old RB25 that made 399rwkw. It still has plenty for my new setup 25/30

    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
