Sard 700Cc Discontinued?

Gday guys (an girls)

Well the GTR has been sitting in the garage for a bit to long now (injectors 5 & 6 are leaking to a point where it misfires and becomes undrivable).

So i went onto Nengun performance to order some Sard 700cc Injectors and they are now saying that they are discontinued, is this the case and does anyone over here do them for a price that was close to the $650 mark (price i got quoted to ship them over here)?

I might a well tell you the current setup to make giving advice a bit easier.

RB26DETT out of a R33

2x GT2860RS -7's

Yellow Jacket Coilpacks

And the current injectors are i think are Nismo Yellow 555cc

Its running 297rwkw's on 18PSI

Dont know much else about the internals except that its done around the 65,000Km mark

Now for the questions

Is it worth buying new injectors?

Can you rebuild these injectors?

Are the replacment SARD 800cc injectors overkill for my setup?

What im currently thinking of doing

Cant decide which one to buy

SARD - 800cc x6 - Top, Low Impedance, 2 Hole, Yellow - Green, Time 1.10 msec AU $ 675.86

Or just buy what it has already Nismo Yellow - 555cc X 6 Injectors AU $ 877.88

My other question is why would i pay around $200 more for 245cc less??????

I am looking at running the same power but would i be able to do this with the SARD 800cc injectors or would it end up overspraying the fuel being a 800cc??

I dont really know to much about injectors yet but would apreciate any advice

Sorry about the Essay size post i just like to give you guys the most information possible when asking advice.

Thanks in advance

There is a minor difference between the 700 & 800 - its spray pattern as the nozzle is different.

Apparently the 700's tune ever so slightly easier, but its not a show stopper.

HOWEVER i assume you have a tune that matches your 555's?

If so, simply getting 555's will be much cheaper than going for a dyno/retune by putting in different brand & size injectors into it.

Whilst they will cost more, it'll workout cheaper overall as its a simple replacement.

what ecu do you have? if your injectors are yellow you most likely have standard GTR injectors mate. I would say just buy a couple of standard injectors to replace the leaking ones, remove the other 4 as well and get the whole lot cleaned and flowed.

the sard 700cc injectors are a great injector mainly because the operate with a response time close to standard (0.65ms) the 800s are 1.15ms. it's not a big deal and it's generally the case that the bigger the injector the longer the lag time between open and closed (it's inevitable) but the sard 700s were (are) a good performer.

if you're making 297rwkw your standard 440cc injectors will be maxed but as long as you are happy with the set-up then by all means just replace them and leave it as is. if you change to ANY other injector size you will need the car re-tuned. yes if you slot in some 800cc injectors the car will badly overfuel hence the need for re-tuning.

Part number for yellow nismo 555's for RB26

no. they don't. that part is for RB25 SIDE FEED INJECTORS. which are yellow and are 550cc but ARE NOT RB26 injectors. RB26 injectors standard are yellow, are top feed, and are most likely what this dude has (as sean pointed out). very unlikely someone would convert their RB26 to side feed, high impedance injectors and then buy the most expensive injectors around to gain 110cc... it would be like a $1500 exercise when they could buy bolt in sard 700s for around $700.

I'm still wagering this bloke has stock ecu and stock injectors.

Nengun must be wrong then... Usually the part numbers are spot on.

Lists BNCR33 as that number for 555 :ermm:

Yeah, the leaking is a telltale sign.

Also BB I thought standard injector latency was 0.77, not 0.65....

fark you are challenging my memory!!! off the top of my head standard was 0.4X (0.4something) and sard 700s are 0.65. it's easy to find, plenty of tables around with lag time figures for common injectors.

Nengun must be wrong then... Usually the part numbers are spot on.

trust me they are wrong. there are no yellow 555cc top feed RB26 injectors I know of. that part number is definitely for the yellow nismo side feeds used on ECR33 RB25. nengun is actually wrong more often than you'd think with mix-ups between GTR/GTST etc. it happens to everyone a bit though.... people often assuming BCNR33 just = R33 etc.

you are right. standard RB26 is apparently 0.77. got me fked now how the sard 700s manage 0.65 but I remember it clearly having sold and fitted so many to various GTRs over the years. I could recite sard injector lag time figures in my sleep...

Sorry for the late reply guys,

to my knowledge it has some form of nismo ecu. I think I was the sort that replaced the factory one and not one that piggy backed.

As for the injectors I will have to pull one out for you and take some pictures so you all have a better idea. I'm pretty sure they were yellow ones. And yes I was told they were at there max so they prob are the factory ones.

So If I was to put the same ones in again I wouldn't need a retune?

And does anyone here have any good standard injectors for sale?

If so are they hard to install?

Cheers

Correct - you're replacing like for like.

Here's my DIY on GTR injector installation, its pretty easy: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/285621-diy-gtr-injector-replacement/

nismo ecu or not you cannot change injector size without a re-tune and no nismo ecu is tunable here in aus (or anywhere else for that matter, they are set by nismo and that's it). 100% as long as you fit the same size injectors you have now you will not need a re-tune.

it's not hard to change injectors, basically release the pressure from the rail, then start unbolting stuff.

my advice would be pull out one of the working, non-leaking ones and get it cleaned and tested. shouldn't be more than $20 or $30 for 1 injector. they will tell you what it flows (i'm betting standard 440cc). if they are standard just buy some used standard ones, get them and the rest of your old ones cleaned and flowed too then install them. there should be plenty for sale in the for sale section. usually pretty cheap too. you can also use RNN14 GTI-R SR20DET injectors (no real advantage except they come in 4s so you don't have to buy 6). cannot use any other SR20 inecjtors though.

i bought the 700cc sards and they are direct drop in, i did not buy the 800cc sards as they use different plugs and i rather NOT rewire them if i have the choice and apparently the fuel rail spacing needs to be modified too

shame you cant get the 700cc's anymore? CJ motor stock them im pretty sure.. do some more hunting! :)

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

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

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
