Im pretty sure the electrical connector on an injector doesnt have a polarity, is that right???

When installed in the fuel rail the electrical conector faces the block...correct?

Stick with me there is a question in here somewhere.

Now the plug means there is only one way to connect back up, so no drama there, only i have to splice into the loom between the power supply and the injector.

According to the wiring diagram, one electrical spade of the injector connection goes to the ECU, the other from the 12V battery/starter motor/alternator.

If someone can tell me which spade (A or Z on the attached picture) runs to where, then you can save me having to do trace the wiring thru the car, calling for the removal of all the electrical insulation around the std wiring.

Thanks for any help you can provide :P

PS yes i know the injector in the picture is not suitable for an RB, but it gives a good view of the connection i am referring to.

I dont think it'll make a difference, as all the ECU is doing is rapidly opening and closing the circut.... But sorry, I couldnt find anything in my workshop manual about polarities. (altho it is a 200SX) so would assume it should be ok either way.

Roy, when I did my injectors, a mechanic mate who was helping me at the time said just make sure I connected the power to one contact, and the signal to the other - I was told at the time it didnt matter which way, but do them all the same way, ie, power to A and signal to Z or vice versa. Seems to be working so far:)

But i have to wire a resistor pack in line with the injectors. Now irrespective of where i solder the resistor pack, as long as the ECU see the right impedence then i should be right...but the GTR has it wired between the injector and power supply, so would like to do the same in case there is an issue with damaging the injectors by having the resistors downstream instead of upstream.

Making sense? Doesnt matter i have surrended this weekend to get it done

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
