Hi all , I'm keen on a Vipec V44 for the daily but they are set up for saturated or high impedance injectors . The daily needs to run the old hose tail injectors but there doesn't seem to be much going in this type that are high impedance .

From what I read Vipec do a peak and hold injector driver box for the V44 but if obtainable the high impedance squirters would be easier .

The engine uses 225cc high imp injectors and I reckon something in the 370-460cc range should do the job , I gather the V44 is more than up to the task of running injectors of this size in an 1800cc turbo four .

Some sites claim that some of the NA RX7's used a high imp 460cc injector .

Also I've seen mention of people using dropping resistors when converting from high to low imp injectors , I believe it is workable but you don't get the advantage of a peak and hold system without peak and hold injector drivers in the computer .

Any help appreciated , cheers A .

They are both low impedance injectors like most turbo ones of the era . The only thing that may be suitable are the RX7 460cc high impedance ones - series 4 I think .

It's looking like the peak and hold injector driver box that ViPec can supply is the cheapest option , it opens up a wide range of low impedance squirters so easier to tailor the injectors to the application .

Cheers A .

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
