I have highlighted the operative word. I was merely stating what they are capable of. Sure there are other factors involved but that would be my estimate at their maximum capability with all variables taken into account. Perfect A/F ratio, good base pressure etc etc.

Lipstick on a pig, champ. Even trying to get an accurate look at the capabilities without all of the aspects you failed mention in your post is silly. Imagine it's running a 'heavy' non-oxygenated fuel for a moment, something that burns nice and slow that you can lean out quite a bit and that the base fuel pressure is 75psi.

What are the 1000cc injectors worth in horsepower terms then?

DiRT smelled a rat...and indeed his nose has been vindicated...there was something not right and now its been highlighted by the tuner as fact.

Ok...back to discussing this monster R34

My balls are far too small to drive a car that nuts on the road! Yes H@ME the owner certainly is looking over his shoulder for the men in white coats.

Im having trouble working out what is more awesome in this thread...this car...or Johnny's avatar.

i vote for johnnys avatar happening on the bonnet of this r34. win win.

and i take it you mean the injectors infact being different to what was stated as the rat..

regardless tho.. well done trent great work.

yes...rat = injector size that was stated

not anything to do with any person, dyno, drivetrain losses etc

Im tempted to jump on the plane and come down to MAS to see it unleashed.

Ok so you're saying that 1000cc injectors are not capable of supporting 1200 engine hp?

And it's even more silly to start adding variables. Sure, change the fuel, change the base pressure....the 1000cc injector can still do it, just not with that arrangement. So you haven't disproved anything. That's like the guys from Bugatti saying their Veyron can do 400 and you say, oh but can it do it against a head wind with flat tyres? uh ah!.

No it can't do it against a head wind with flat tyres...but it can still do it.

Quite the opposite, champ. I see you have misread/misinterpreted what I meant. No matter.

My point was that it's silly to make assumptions and guesstimates without knowing or at least having a pretty bloody good idea at what the other variables are.

so trent what injectors is the car actually running? brand? size?

indy blues, they look the same only the indys have a black body not silver..... 1600cc. i think it is covered on page 6 http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Tu...html&st=100

interesting... wats the idle like.. i assume you'd probaly have troubles getting it down to 1000-1100 range with injectors of that size? than again.. the cams in that thing would be rather large and probaly prefer an idle around the 1200rpm mark?

    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
