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

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
