Hey all,

I'm looking at buying a second hand set of Power Enterprise 650cc injectors for my car, I just want to find out what I should be looking for to make sure they are what is described?

The seller gave me the part numbers on the injectors and he seems quite helpful. But I want to make sure that they come with everything that is required to fit them, so what is usually included with drop in injectors? I imagine seals, etc??

Anything else I should ask or look for?

Thanks for any help,

Martin.

From the research I've done, these injectors should be straight drop in for my car, so shouldn't need spacers or anything to make them fit.

How much does flow testing usually cost? If I need to fork out big money to get them flow tested then it sort of negates the benefit of buying second hand so I would just buy brand new... Only reason I am considering these is that they are more than half the price of brand new ones.

seals are cheap and should be changed, flow test and clean would be worth it too.

I got new seals for a set of denso's i sold to a fella here in perth the other day from sean at automotive service solutions.

or if ya want ive got the top seals here at work.. can sling ya some

The danger is if you don't get them flow tested then one or more cylinders could run lean, wrecking your engine. If they've come off a running car then the risk is small, but if they've been off a car for a period of time then they could easily get clogged up with dirt etc.

Thanks Paul, $66 for the whole lot so not expensive at all for the piece of mind! They have been off the car for a long time so if I get them then I'll get them flow tested. If they have got clogged with dirt, is that fixable or would they be useless?

Do you know how many kilometers they travelled? Or does the seller have a receipt?

The guy selling them now bought them off another user on here but never installed them on his car... says he was told they have traveled 3000kms. I'm a little bit iffy about it because of that which is why I thought I would ask, but if they are legit then I'm getting a near new set of injectors for more than half the price of new ones!

Yeah, for that price its definately worth the piece of mind :thumbsup: Usually if they're clogged they can just put them in an ultrasonic bath to clean them up, and most the the injector parts are fixable. Go for new seals, as the seals are usually damaged when the injectors are removed.

i can flow test them for you if united hits you back

ill be able to tell you if they will need fuel rail spacers too by comparing them to stock gtt injectors i have at my shop (more than likely they will require a spacer but you only need 2 anyway so dont let it scare you :D )

    • Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.
    • Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.
    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
