About to place the Order for the RB20. Question, Can the PFC drive low impedance injectors? I know the R32 RB20 is High impedance. I have a set of low impedance 660cc injecotors that I am goin to use. Do I need to add inline resistors to use them? And Thanks for pointing me to the PFC for the RB20 guys.

Whatever happened to the Yanks building tough 10sec untubbed RS Camaros??? We seem to be getting a lot of posts about RB engines...can i guess, RB20 in an S13 (240SX)...all good though!

As for the Apexi Power Fc for the RB20DET, i think you will find that new they are harder to find then other PFcs intended for other RB engines. 2nd hand they are rarer again.

And you are right, the Power Fc requires injectors of the same impedence as factory, so yeh you need high impedence injectors if you are to use the PFc. I have just finished wiring in a resistor pack off a GTR to allow me to use low impedence GTR injectors in my RB20, and was surprised how easy it was to wire up. If only i coudl find a Power Fc for Aus$1,000.

You can run a RWD PFC with low impedance injectors - only need the resitor pack wired in (have got it in my ECR33 - low buck GTR 444cc injectors are used w/std GTR rail). Turns out a hell of a lot cheaper than buying side feed injectors.

roy, you are joking aren't you??? surely brent from nengun can get you one for ~$1000

About 12months ago when i tried him he wasnt able to help me out, perhaps if i dropped him a line every 2-3 months, or tried again he could help me out...i dont know.

For the time being though i dont really need an ECU, and if i do go down the aftermarket path in the future, i now want something that can hold different MAPs with the click of a button... so not really looking for a PFc now.

Oh...and the best place for part numbers is www.meggala.com.au he does a good job of collecting tidbits of info for us Nissan owners, other then that im not really able to help you

    • GTSboy, thank you again. i’ve been reading all the other SAU RB25 vacuum line threads and you have the utmost patience for people asking “where do my vacuum lines go”. it’s appreciated. i did also enlist a few other RB guys local to me.  i would like to run 5 to 4. turbo pressure side to wastegate actuator. i would like to run 3 to 1. power steering air valve line to intercooler outlet. (this is how it was previously). i was told 2 is the bleed port for the boost solenoid - which i’m not running - so should be capped.   anyone see any problems with that?    
    • So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.
    • Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?
    • Should have asked what is the car?
    • I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
