Hi guys, I need new injectors to complete my build. I'm only chasing 350ish AWKW so I'm either going to get the SARD 700s or the Nismo 600s. The nismos are about $800 and the SARDS are just under $600 for a set without shipping or commission. I've heard of people having issues tuning with SARDS, no idea why that would be, I'm no mechanic.

Am I wasting my my money if I pay the extra for the nismos are they just a much of a muchness???

I had a similar dilemma and went with the Nismo's.

Don't know much about the Sards, but I don't mind paying a bit more for good quality stuff that you know is going to fit without fecking around with adaptors etc, and that's exactly what you get with the Nismo gear.

Good luck with it.

Cheers,

I got my Sard 700's from Greenline.jp, worked out to something like $760 delivered 6 months ago.. i think RHDJapan.com is even cheaper delivered for Sard injectors. The only difference between the 600cc and 700cc injectors really, is that the bigger injectors will make it harder to get the idle right but a good tuner can easily overcome this.

Oh I might add this piece of info that I found when researching on these injectors.

Apparently the spray pattern of the Nismo ones are better. If someone can re-confirm this again it'll make your choice obvious (I'm 99% sure thats the case).

OK I've pretty much decided on the Nismos. I've seen two different types, there are the purple top ones that you see on Nengun and then the yahoo auctions have the black ones, is there any difference between the two??? They're both 600cc...

Sards need the collars from memory, so bit extra cost/stuffing around.

Nismo's drop straight in.

no they don't mate. you are thinking of RB25 stuff or something else all together. sard 700cc injectors are direct fit to the RB26 rail and inlet injector bosses. my only advice is buy new top and bottom o-rings.

personally I have used both the nismo 600cc injectors and the sard 700cc injectors. both in GTRs of mine and both with fairly similar set-ups and power goals and noticed no real difference between them.

if you are sure the 600s will provide enough fuel for you then by all means use them, but the sards are cheaper and flow more so there is a small advantage going that way I guess.

Yep the nismo's have a 4 pot spray (or thats what i think is called) and the sards only have 2 pot....i personally went to Nismo's as i dont mind paying for quality and reliability specially with fueling side of things

(pot spray meaning it has 4 holes and 2 holes respectively)

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
