R33 Gtr, Are My Injectors Maxing At 208awkw?

I want to fit cam gears, but my tuner tells me that my gtr has almost maxed out the standard injectors, how? she only has a humble 208awkw?

If that's the case, will a fuel reg fix it? Which one, does it have to be adjustable?

Is using a reg a bandaid fix for maxed out injectors? How?

R33 gtr, power fc, pod filters and 14.5psi

That doesn't sound.right.. my standard ones are at 270kw.and they still have a bit to give... either get yr injecters checked out or get a better tuner buddy

Check your base fuel pressure first to see if it is where it should be; I am not 100% what it is from standard so don't want to give you a bum steer. There should be much more duty left at that power.

well it adds up if your saying your injectors are near maxing out running on 14.5psi but you should be making far more than 208awkw at that boost

im running that exact same boost on -7 turbos (stock size), car is making 260-270awkw and my stock injectors are at 90% tops

his dyno must be just reading really low, f**k.. 60-70kw lower? thats redicilous

Its actually not far off the mark for a car without cam gears dialed in, and of course dependant on other mods. Remember every car/engine is different and the stock engines are getting on a bit now.

How about comparing apples with apples here so as not to confuse the thread starter? Hard to compare a car with bigger turbos and ~270awkw to one with standard turbos and no cam gears. As you stated, there are plenty of dynos that read lower than others.

Back to the original query though, I would be checking your fuel pressure and most likely replacing your fuel pump as others have suggested.

Agree most likely to be fuel pump dying, but don't forget to change the filter and check the vacuum/boost signal to the regulator.

Remember when checking the voltage at the fuel pump that the control module does not supply the full 14v at idle. IIRC its about 9v. I dont know when it switches to full power tho.

He said standard gtr injectors max out on his dyno at 220awkw

I will say his dyno is prety shy, my car on another dyno (IS motoring) was reading 27 kw more

So that would take my car to 230awkw or so. Maybe the injectors would max at that hp?

Duty cycle reached 88%

Everyone dyno is "shy" mate, it's the new black.

Either way, at that power level 88% duty means there is something wrong.

Although - you said they were maxed, yet now its 88%, that is not maxed.

88% is safetly maxed

Anyway, I got my money back from the tuner today :D

It's booked in at crd tommorow..

We'll see what they say

      Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.
