hey guys

just wondering what kinda power the standard rb26 injectors and airflow metres will handle im looking for 400rwhp i currently have hks gtss and a forged engine.

can i use rb25 afms if so what needs to be done to get them to work on the 26

and what cc injectors would i need?

cheers

stock injectors and afm ahould do around 280rwk before you come into too much trouble. I bought 540cc injectors for my car as i dont want a grenade setup :D

as for the afm's..., dont qoute me on this but i think the standard r32gtst afm's have the same plug as the rb26.

i read this somewhere a while ago. they are the same size as the gtr afms too, if this is the case they will do 400rwhp.

IIRC about 280awkw is the limit (someone will correct me). You can tune past the AFMs, and if you wanted to get a bit more out of the standard injectors you could raise the fuel pressure with an aftermarket regulator. Since you've spent the dough on the forged motor i wouldnt bother with the regulator hack and just go for a new set of injectors. To get changed AFMs and injectors to work you will need a tune. You might be able to get a PFC to limp to the shop if you select the new kit in the menus.

yep 287.4kw we made this at sau dyno day a few years back...de-screened afm's stock fuel pressure and injectors....stock turbo's etc

You should get close enough to 300.

Ferni has near on that power, stock AFM/Injectors.

If you want to push the turbos to the absolute limit, you'll need to upgrade both however

What is the injector duty and mixtures near 300? Stock fuel pressure?

If its running on the ragged edge then the OP could be well advised not to risk his shiny new motor. Ie stick to a safe 280, or add the goodies and run 320/330.

BTW Chicken at 200bar sounds delicious.

De - screened afm's. How much restriction do the screens pose? I have thought in pulling the rear screen off my nismo AFMS. Is it worth it? Would taking both screens off have any effect on how the AFM reads?

No need to descreen nismo afm's. They will meter just about anything you can give them. You can run stock motor, stock afm, stock fpr making 280kw atw with inj duty at 92 %. All in the tune.

AFM reads air mass so removing the screens will have no effect on the accuracy of the reading. The screens are just one of the many restrictions along the air path. I have no idea if removing them would make a measurable difference in power.

A mate who has WAY to much time on his hands worked it out (measured the size and length of the wire). The screens blocked 33% of the AFM he reckoned. Unfortunatley he never did a run with and without.

when but when air is being sucked past?

Huh? I

ts either the fact that ive just about finished a 12hr night shift or that makes no sense?

A screen both sides of the afm, restricting there air able to enter the afm. So you have an 80mm body with a 1/3 blocked by the screen.

god i need sleep.

6%

its not like the air is just 'passing'

its being sucked in, the turbos, spinning, draw more air

So under load/induction, how much does it actually restrict....

Paulie says 6%, is it more/less/otherwise?

I have a RB26, and having issues at the momment can I post it here since were here? Also to this topic. I got my injector maxed out to nearly a 100% at 12 psi on stock turbos. got 209kw@7500 rpm (280hp) at rear wheels. and that wasn't spinning that hard, is a new engine can go to 9500 rpm with more $$$$!

To this new topic about MAF's, I was thinking of pulling the mesh off my sensors to clean them better. Alot of oil been through them. I have seen a DIY fix for these meters where U have to re-solder the filaments to the probe (I wouldn't advise anyone to doing this though). They are a sealed unit, with the time you waste, might as well just buy a new or good second hand one.

It wouldn't be a good idea to remove this mesh with a standard ECU would it? The voltages under throttle and none throttle be affected. Maybe not.

you do not solder the "filaments to the probe" as you put it....the dry joints you solder are located under the square cover.

    • I came here to note that is a zener diode too base on the info there. Based on that, I'd also be suspicious that replacing it, and it's likely to do the same. A lot of use cases will see it used as either voltage protection, or to create a cheap but relatively stable fixed voltage supply. That would mean it has seen more voltage than it should, and has gone into voltage melt down. If there is something else in the circuit dumping out higher than it should voltages, that needs to be found too. It's quite likely they're trying to use the Zener to limit the voltage that is hitting through to the transistor beside it, so what ever goes to the zener is likely a signal, and they're using the transistor in that circuit to amplify it. Especially as it seems they've also got a capacitor across the zener. Looks like there is meant to be something "noisy" to that zener, and what ever it was, had a melt down. Looking at that picture, it also looks like there's some solder joints that really need redoing, and it might be worth having the whole board properly inspected.  Unfortunately, without being able to stick a multimeter on it, and start tracing it all out, I'm pretty much at a loss now to help. I don't even believe I have a climate control board from an R33 around here to pull apart and see if any of the circuit appears similar to give some ideas.
    • Nah - but you won't find anything on dismantling the seats in any such thing anyway.
    • Could be. Could also be that they sit around broken more. To be fair, you almost never see one driving around. I see more R chassis GTRs than the Renault ones.
    • Yeah. Nah. This is why I said My bold for my double emphasis. We're not talking about cars tuned to the edge of det here. We're talking about normal cars. Flame propagation speed and the amount of energy required to ignite the fuel are not significant factors when running at 1500-4000 rpm, and medium to light loads, like nearly every car on the road (except twin cab utes which are driven at 6k and 100% load all the time). There is no shortage of ignition energy available in any petrol engine. If there was, we'd all be in deep shit. The calorific value, on a volume basis, is significantly different, between 98 and 91, and that turns up immediately in consumption numbers. You can see the signal easily if you control for the other variables well enough, and/or collect enough stats. As to not seeing any benefit - we had a couple of EF and EL Falcons in the company fleet back in the late 90s and early 2000s. The EEC IV ECU in those things was particularly good at adding in timing as soon as knock headroom improved, which typically came from putting in some 95 or 98. The responsiveness and power improved noticeably, and the fuel consumption dropped considerably, just from going to 95. Less delta from there to 98 - almost not noticeable, compared to the big differences seen between 91 and 95. Way back in the day, when supermarkets first started selling fuel from their own stations, I did thousands of km in FNQ in a small Toyota. I can't remember if it was a Starlet or an early Yaris. Anyway - the supermarket servos were bringing in cheap fuel from Indonesia, and the other servos were still using locally refined gear. The fuel consumption was typically at least 5%, often as much as 8% worse on the Indo shit, presumably because they had a lot more oxygenated component in the brew, and were probably barely meeting the octane spec. Around the same time or maybe a bit later (like 25 years ago), I could tell the difference between Shell 98 and BP 98, and typically preferred to only use Shell then because the Skyline ran so much better on it. Years later I found the realtionship between them had swapped, as a consequence of yet more refinery closures. So I've only used BP 98 since. Although, I must say that I could not fault the odd tank of United 98 that I've run. It's probably the same stuff. It is also very important to remember that these findings are often dependent on region. With most of the refineries in Oz now dead, there's less variability in local stuff, and he majority of our fuels are not even refined here any more anyway. It probably depends more on which SE Asian refinery is currently cheapest to operate.
    • You don't have an R34 service manual for the body do you? Have found plenty for the engine and drivetrain but nothing else
