The injectors are good. haven't experienced any issues yet.

What have you run them with? Does Trent have any feedback?

Even my tuner knocked them, but he didn't realise that I was running a set.. I find it funny because he made such a point to tell me how good EVERYTHING in my car was, in that it gave him ZERO issues. I guess that includes the injectors, :P right?

It should be known that I get great economy and perfect drivability with them AND my awesome Hypergear turbo.

question was in regards to the five 0 motorsport side feeds,

but thanks anyway

Lol just got back on the forums and skipping a lot of sections, my bad :blush:

Just chucked my 1000s in and set them up on the pfc and idled perfectly like stock so far so good next week will see how go on the tune.

Awesome news dude. Be sure to get feedback from your tuner and post up.

Well that's the thing. The pattern should directly effect the quality of the burn, but my plugs say my motor runs mint.

I am not convinced they do have a bad pattern. I am more so thinking there is a fall back policy being made should they become pooey later in the life cycle. Sort of like an 'I told you so' for when you come and say 'my cars not right'.

Plug condition won't always tell the story. The quality of the atomisation can affect things like how prone the engine is to detonation and therefore how much you can lean on it during tuning and ultimately how much power it makes. If you have a good, wide and fine spray pattern then you end up with decently even mixture distribution. If you have a rough and coarse spray, then you will get regions in the cylinder that are richer and leaner than they should be, which will will all average out in the wash (ie the overall burn is the right mixture and so the plugs don't show any bad signs), but mean that you can't lean on it as hard.

AFR at the tail pipe I agree, comes out in the wash, but effect on the plug I disagree.

The plug is in the very cylinder which you yourself said will have rich and lean zones, causing heat spots and therefore risk of detonation. That would show on the plug, rather than having a perfectly clean electrode and a nicely carbon dusted outer, especially after a very wide range of unforgiving driving.

No, my point is that it won't detonate if you don't push it to. Better injectors means that it can be pushed harder. In both cases the tuner stops pushing before he sets it up to fail, but the better injector'd case will be making better power. There may be slight differences in the plugs from the differences in mixture distribution, but surely no-one can read plugs that well that they'd be able to tell that one set of injectors was better than they other. If they're not melted and they're not all black or badly whitened, then they'll just look like plugs.

The thing is a poor spray pattern has to have some negative effects, otherwise why would it be considered bad and why would engineers try to design injectors with better atomisation? Not dating it would be a huge effect, but there has to be one.

But wheres the actual proof that the fiveomotorsport ones have a poor spray pattern? from what ive heard everyone thats run them on various cars has always said they are great. Its true there are dodgy hiflows out there but doesnt meant all of them are.

Best way to prove this, there's a trader on this forum that's got a stand at WTAC and will happily assess your injector's spray pattern for free at WTAC.

Speaking of injectors don't buy deatschwerks , they pop and misfire like crazy at low duty cycles, great power with no det, decent economy (14-16L/100km with 260kw) but yeah pop pop pop at idle and cruise.

Which Deatschwerks are you using, the older high flows or the current generation ones ( like these http://www.deatschwerks.com/products/fuel-injectors/sport-compact/nissan/skyline/neo-rb25det/1998-02-neo-rb25det )? I have a set of 800cc high flows with SS2 and a similar power level. The only popping I'm getting is occasionally when lifting off rapidly on high boost. They seem to idle fine.

nah...rolls has the 740 sidefeeds iirc...

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
