Hi everyone,

I have just put a set of Garrett -7s on the 34 GTR, with HKS boost controller to 1 bar, stock injector/fuel pump/fuel rail, with full WELDINA NE-1 exhaust.

Before doing that the injector is about to maxing out about 1 bar on stock turbo.

My question are:

* Is it safe to drive the car hard for the current mod? (new mod's on the way)

* What is the consequence of maxing out the injectors with a bigger turbo? is it going to damage the engine in any way?

* What happens if I increased the boost to 1.2 bar with stock injectors?

The car is not even on road yet so all these questions are hypothetical. however I would really appreciate if I get some answers.

Thanks.

Maxing out the injectors means that they cannot flow or add any more fuel to compensate for the increased air flow when u turn up the boost so the engine will lean out and guess what.....BANG!!!!

Turn down the boost to 10-11 psi and u "should" be good until an injector AND ecu upgrade

Got pfc. 550cc injectors are on the way. are they big enough for -7?

Also wondering which is more harmful to the engine: too much air or too much fuel?

"Give me your R34 GTR, you don't deserve it." :/

Seriously...

550cc will be good enough for pump...if u have plans to go E85 u might need to go bigger

Too much air with not enough fuel....as in your case

lol we all stay up a bit late...

Bosch 044 + 550cc will be the fuel set up.

E85, is it road legal? i'm not sure just asking...

i was running -7's on my gtr on the stock ecu and stock injectors for quite some time and it was fine, it was tad on the rich side though

good to know snozzle. thanks for the info.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
