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)

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
