heya installing the Sard 550's into my rb25det motor. purchased through justjap, theyre brand new. what seems to be the problem i that the new injectors are:

1- not as wide as the original ones, therefore slide in and out of the rail very easily

2- both top and bottom O-rings dont seem to be sealing up

3- the injector cap (the cap thing that holds the injectors in) dont fit back on if i sit the injector into the rail

am i doing something wrong? am i meant to change the O-rings or anything? is it possible the injectors given to me were wrong? bear in mind the RB25's are sidefeed injectors.

all help is much appreciated!

You have to use std RB25DET injector o-rings from nissan. The sards do not come with the correct o-rings.

Good luck mate. If you are not sure make sure you get some one with a mechanical background to check you as side feeds can be very tricky.

well test fitted the standard O-ring that was on my stock injector and its very loose with about a 1-2mm gap between the injector and the O-ring. ..any alternatives to the Nissan ones? car goes in on friday morning for the tune! ugggg

ok removed the rubber bits in the caps and fit looks ok. still need to seal off the upper region .....somehow......so new standard O-rings?

No need those are just dampers for the std injectors.

thanks for the confirmation URAS.

fark new O-rings are a rip from nissan...$5 each x 6....

injectors are in the rails now, fit is good, though not sure how tight to screw the allen key bolts down. are the collars meant to touch the rail? currently mine are 2-3mm's away from touching but theyre pretty damn tight already, sounds right?

Yer my collars didnt clip on properly, touching the rail.. not sure if this is bad or not though.

Anyone have any info on this?

Sard sell an optional part which is a seperate collar that's required for some cars when using their injectors. You may need a set of those.

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
