At Wat Power Level Do U Start Running Into Problems With The Standard Rb26 Fuel Rail


Recommended Posts

i realli dont want to go threw all the trouble of fitting a surge tank and all the lines im after some thing i can just bolt in and fit the problem

i wanna get out of this the most cheapest way i can as well

On the cheap? Here's my suggestions to save coin;

1. Use stock pump and dont go for big power

2. 044 intank, tune for 380 or so rwkw and be happy with that power

im running a 044 intank, using a efi v8 falcon fuel sock retrofitted to suit the bottom of the 044.

simple install and no issues with 5 ltrs in the tank around corners etc.

only way to do it IMHO.

note the clear fuel hose i have mounted around the pump absorbs all the vibration, so its very quiet.

i had my car on the dyno for a tune yesterday and when we got to 400kw it started running into problems with fuel

we had a fuel pressure + flow gauge connect to the car while we were tuning the flow doesnt drop at all but the fuel pressure goes from 40psi to 60psi and then just drops back down to 40 instead of going higher it just drops back to 40 and the car leans out so we neva got to finish the tuning

fuel system is pretty basic

bosch 023 (rated at 700hp) mounted intake

SARD 800cc injectors

HKS fuel reg

Fuel pump for sure. Stock rail is good for well over 400awkw (maybe more, but ive had a few RB26 in here pull well over 400 with no issues)

    • Mostly likely welded. 'Coz it's f**ked. You have the car right there. Get someone to tap on the underside while you sit in the back with the seat out. You'll find it faster than we will.
    • Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's how it's going to end up. Mechanic suggested I cut a hole in the chassis/body to access the inside. I can cut the hole for access but will have to get someone else to help if any welding is needed afterwards. Things I'd like to know are: Assuming there's a captive nut inside, how's it fixed? And how can it be tightening but not fully loosening? If I cut a hole to access/replace a captive nut, is there a good place to cut for this one? Does it have to be at the side, or is there somewhere I can cut from above inside the car?
    • So i finally got the exhaust done. Full custom 3.5" stainless with dual tipped sp mufflers & a side exit aes dump valve.  Not as quiet on the outside as i thought it would be, but heaps quiter inside when driving and no more drone.  Some pics on Instagram 
    • The wasteland, as least traditionally too, was the place with more relaxxed shittery/rules. Not to say you can post porn etc, but it was the place for good joking around, and a bit wild. There was also plenty of unwritten wasteland rules, such as what any user must do if someone posted up asking for likes/votes for a contest... Which was to go in and vote for someone else instead 😛
    • Plenty of people I knew who drifted set their cars up more for grip than traditional "drift", and then just added LOTS of power. Gave them more control, and bigger smoke shows.
