Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone can shead any light on my thoughts about upgrading the standard injectores in my 1996 gtst skyline..

i'v been reading a lil on the power ppl are making with mods they hav done to acheive the power.. im after a responsive 250 or so rwkw..

Now i'm thinking i deffinatly have to upgrade the injector's in order to acheive that sort of pwr, yet in sum threads i read from others, they are saying they have, bla, bla, bla, also with an after market fule reg.. and no after market injectores..??

So my question "is it possible to make 250rwkw Safely with a fule reg and no aftermarket injectors" .. ??

Cheers guys..!

No

If you wana upgrade your car do it properly or dont do it, think about it not only are you now pushing the car over the standard power but do you really want to be doing that pushing standard parts that far and knowing failure can lead to a engine gone. Just get a set of nismo 555 for that power or if you want to save I guess you could atleast hi flow your stock ones.

Indeed stock 370cc injectors SHOULD make 300rwhp if you have everything "right" (nice tune, good fuel pump, efficient engine setup). But then again, that's not 250rwkw, it's 224rwkw.

Get some bigger injectors. Also, your injectors are getting old now anyway and are probably half full of gunk. Get new ones (or at least cleaned and flow checked S15 445cc ones). Add new o-rings and you will have another 20% head room. I'd suggest 550cc though if you bother. a couple of hundred extra (compared to S15 inj) spent properly now will be worth it in a year or 2

the general rule is that:

< ~230rwkw stock injectors/fuel pump/afm will manage (ecu is still needed for decent power)

> ~230rwkw bigger or highflowed injectors/aftermarket fuel pump/z32afm/ecu are required

knowing what i know now... if i had a fresh gtst, i'd probably buy a second hand gcg highflow, second hand pfc, max out all the stock injectors/afm & throw monies at suspension and handling. more power can always be purchased later if you want/need it

So you would prefer 230rwkw compared to your current 320rwkw? Yeah right :D

if you had the injectors prefessionally cleaned first to make sure they are actually flowing 100%, you could probably nudge 250kw on them without touching fuel pressure too much, but it isn't advisable.

Rolls, he couldn't use GTR injectors as r33 rb25 ones are side feed not top feed like rb26 ones. he could use s15 injectors though.

A custom fuel rail is pretty cheap, that's what I did.

Well guy's appreciated the help!

Yea i think ill just by a second hand set of injectors of sumone that fit straight in and be done with it :down:

i already hav a fmic, full exhaust, pod, gcg hi-flow turbo..

soo i just hav to get the injectores, fule pump, z32 afm, and a re-map and we should be happy :)

Cheers..

    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
