Hi Everyone,

Mate of mine has built a 1000hp rb26dett and is in the process of installing it into his r32 gts...currently he is nutting out the loom and electrical side of things and wanted to know if he needed to run the factory resistor pack for the injectors? Not sure what injectors he is running, obviously something big enough to support 1000hp :P...if its important I will ask him and post it up.

Thanks to anyone that can help. :ninja:

Cheers!

Depends entirely on the ECU he is using and the type of injector drivers that ecu has.

Ecu's that can drive low impedance injectors without a resistor pack can potentially run lower pulse widths as the injector driving current is controlled more precicely. Most if not all big injectors are low impedance and would require a resistor pack if your using a power fc or something simular.

Hi GTRNUR,

He is using a Link Plus G3 ECU to run Siemens Deka 850cc injectors, here's an excerpt from the ECU manual on injector drives:

The LinkPlusG3 has eight independant injector drives allowing sequential, sequential staged, group and group staged fuel injectors.
These injection drives are designed to be used with high impedance injectors, injector ballast resistors must be wired if low impedance injectors are to be used.

So I guess he just needs to find out if the Siemens injectors he is running are low or high impedance, if they are low then use the factory resistor pack?

Cheers!

Turns out my mate wants to try and accomplish this a bit cheaper and make the resistor pack himself, does anyone know what resistors he will need and how many? (one per injector maybe?)

He's found a place in the US that sells the factory resistor packs for about $180 (not sure if AU$ or US$), does anyone have good condition one for sale that he might go instead? Otherwise I think he'll try and go the above mentioned route to save some $.

Cheers!

Not directly related but I was speaking to Ray Hall this morning about ViPec V44's and peak and hold injector drivers .

ViPec market a peak and hold driver box for the V44 because it comes with low current high impedance injector drivers .

I'm not sure if Link do them and the real question is whats cheapest , large high impedance injectors or peak and hold ones with the driver box .

They can be sourced new from Nissan or plenty of second hand ones or he can get one from a wrecker out of a MR30 (exactly the same as the gtr ones) or make up his own.

I used a gtr resistor pack the first time and made up my own the second time (purchased the 10ohm resistors from Jaycar) the ones you are after are the LARGE 10W/10ohm resistors and roughly $2 each :D

Hey Mate

I purchased a 6 ballast resistor pack for NZ$105 from NZEFI: http://www.nzefi.com/

I think Link themselves sell them for around that price too whick would work out to around AU$85+ Shipping

Probably just as easy to get the Vipec one as they should be around the same price

Good luck

Dan

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
