If they are really jecs injectors then they would probably be great, however you have no real way of testing.

Why dont you find someone to highflow your stock injectors once you need to get it done?

Its cheap, easy and proven not to be too bad tune wise etc.

Hi,

Yeah ... I'm really torn ..

Used ones I would not like buying since you never know if they're actually working alright.

(They're also hard to find)

New Nismos are double the $$$ ..

The seller claims his items are brand new, best would be to ask him for the model (number), so I can do

some research.

If it's too good to be true, it mostly isn't ;)

Hi ... I just got feedback .. (though just one line)

--------->

they are genuine JECS 550cc injectors. Part number A46-00

-------->

I could not find much about these on the net ...

HMMMMMMMM??!!

Ohhh ... Hi!

You aren't Stao, are you?

I was meaning to talk to you (people?) anyhow regarding this:

R33 Turbo

As for the injectors .. I would not buy any high flowed for sure, but the seller said 'New' ...

Otherwise I would not lose to much time thinking about it and just bite the bullet and buy these:

Nismo

Buy brand new injectors. I throw all mine out (800cc high flow) and replaced them with brand new set. run heaps smoother and getting 2x the amount of mileage out of the same amount of fuel.

I've had hard time figuring out the cause of my test car's roughness, it turned out to be the injectors.

JECS supply OEM parts for Nissan, most of 550cc or 800cc JECS injectors that I've seen are high flows. I've been recommended by my tuner about the new ID injectors which works extremely well. I've also used brand new Power enterprise and Nismo injectors in other test cars that worked exceptionally well too. Generic highed flow injectors are unlikely to have as much droplets per spray compare to purposely built aftermarket injectors, so personally I would buy brand new purposely built injectors.

Turbo wise, every thing you need to know about high flows, different combinations of wheels and housings, installations, tuning, trouble shooting, latest ideas, innovations and solid data of each every one of them are all in our high flow thread, Its been indexed, please have a read and feel free to post up any questions.

Hi Stao,

I will PM you after I had a read .. (I already had some reads :))

As for the injectors, so what you say is that these are possibly 'New' high flowed?

Geez .. I think they're also just delivered in a plastic bag, so probably 'origin unknown'

I really would like to save, but on the other hand having 'dodgy' injectors might be a loose end

when trying to tune your car.

And till today I always bought quality .. Tomei (pump, cams), Trust (downpipe) , HKS (boostcontroller) ... and Nistune :)

Close your eyes and pay for the Nismos. Brand new set of genuine Nismo 740cc could be had for about $750.

I got my set, still unused but I feel comfortable with knowing what they are. JECS make alot of oem parts for Nissan. Made by JECS for Nissan Motors.

Highflowing smaller flow injectors is dick shit.

I tried to look for ways to save money when modding my car. Sure I saved but no where near what I liked it to be. I bought and sold alot of generic shit which I didn't feel comfortable with. Now Ive got a nice clutch, sexy turbo, reliable injectors, reputable ECU, quality exhaust, genuine intercooler, top of the range boost controller. It cost a little more but it will go alot further.

True, it's not worth saving on these crucial parts I guess.

Just out of interest:

$750 sounds like a good deal .. what is the source for these?

Thanks!

I'll never know why people skimp on injectors, maybe because they are small parts so people don't feel like they're getting much for their dollars, but they are probably the most important modification to get right during a turbo upgrade. You'll waste a lot of dyno time trying to figure out flat spots and fuelling issues if you get it wrong.

Keep shopping around eBay and be patient...sets of 555s come up for around $450-$600 second hand all the time.

From memory some turbo Subaru's had 550cc side feed high imp injectors

No reason to think they are high flowed....well actually they are...how do you think injectors are made?

they arent cast with little holes in them, they are all drilled by the factory, so a 270cc side feed that looks like that will have them same pintle with smaller holes drilled by the factory than a 370 or a 550

The chap I bought them from was local. I paid $650 for the set if I recall correctly. Brand new in the boxes. I checked the packaging I got from him and he bought them for more from some performance place in QLD, I can't remember the name(a while ago now) it was sunny something or sun something performance something or rather. They are up and queensland. With these injectors and alot of boost, I get about 45 - 55% injector duty, so alot of headroom.

    • 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.
    • My experience with Rising Sun Exports Before agreeing to the sale I tried to do as much research as I could (obviously), his Facebook reviews are 98% and he goes Live at least once or twice a week. I contacted 2 people in the UK who had used him for their imports, both had positive feedback. His explanation and talk through of the import process was thorough, answering any query no matter how stupid it was. It felt as soon as the money was sent, communication dropped off. I asked for shipping updates every 2 weeks or so, not wanting to pester him, he never had any updates. I wasn't informed the car had been dropped off at the port, I only found out by his Facebook story. I asked for the photos taken at the port, knowing he would need some for insurance purposes. I received a few 5 second clips and that's it. When asked again, he said his staff had them. Weeks later I asked again, he tells me he doesn't have any, but does have 50 photos from the original advert. I never received them. I eventually got the documents sent via WhatsApp after I mentioned the port was requesting them. I purchased a CarVX report, to find out the vehicle is a Grade R with recorded accident damage, first recorded in 2017 when it was first auctioned. He never told me the grade, then again I didn't ask. His response was "Grade R means nothing, it wasn't chassis damage". Still, I would have liked to have been informed about it. Jon prides himself on being open and honest when it comes to inspecting cars, it's his main job doing so at the auctions for customers. When the vehicle arrived in the UK I noticed a few little cosmetic issues. It's a 21 year old car so it wasn't going to be mint condition. The side skirts are cracked on each corner and the sealant is failing. The front grill on the bonnet/hood isn't secured very well, mounting studs are missing. Both minor things, but again, it would have been nice to be told. During a Facebook Live walk around video of the vehicle, he mentioned it has a front Whiteline anti roll bar/sway bar. While on the inspection ramp, I noticed the stock item has been installed. When first questioned, his response was "the ARB? Switched? Since when, it never had them". Since sending video and photo evidence I've not received a response. I'm probably being over critical of the overall condition of an old car, but all I wanted was honesty (which he claims to have). I'm aware I wasn't his only customer, he's busy doing XYZ but other reviews praise him for great communication with regular updates and photos, I felt I didn't receive the same treatment. 
    • I was able to get some underside photos while the car was on the ramp The suspension is all Altezza/IS200/IS300 so getting part's will hopefully be less of a headache
