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...

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
