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.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
