2000 cc injectors are way overkill.

Let your tuner decide what it needs. They know what they are doing.

Not sure what Marko needs but I am taking this advice and will see what Jim feels he needs to make it work in together. It seems it might be a bit easier for the injectors to work better on the dyno then under more stress on the road maybe??

I'd also rely on the tuner...which Jim is tuning it and what power level are u aiming for?

From memory I think my tuner only hit 65% duty cycle which was impressive

CRD, we have only spoken about 400awkw ish on pump, E85 ? having the Haltech Flex Fuel Sensor installed just in case I ever get a chance to use it. To be honest I would not be using the E85 for the extra GO, but it seems a good all round fuel for the engine..

Haha , I do not even know what a duty cycle is, I will go and look it up but I would guess it means they are not pushed to the limit :)

just had a look and my guess was right but terminology was a little rocky :)

Seems that it is not a good idea to exceed 80% to 85% duty cycle and if you are at 100% there is no injector control as it is open 100% of the time

Paul, get back to work :)

The world of modifying cars is certainly much different than I expected, I saw alcohol abusing, cigarette puffing, drug taking, tattooed , mullet cut yobbos and thats why I joined but now I am consorting with a bunch of fairy blokes that use their big head, gotta get out of here :/

Off topic

Does it make it over kill to have injectors at , say 55% cycle. Just thinking that you never know what you will do in the future. Does it cause a problem, rough idle or anything like that ??

With the old wrecks of injectors (Sards, Rochester, whatever else) that was an issue. Today with the ID/Bosch 14V's for example, it's not really an issue.

Look at that. ID 2000's on a pissy 1.8 NA.

Did they install these to prove a point?

Yes. The point being that there isnt any downside to using the larger ID injectors.

Aftermarket Industries stock a new 1650cc bosch injector that is worth a look too. Direct plug-in connector compatability with the RB26 loom, so no cut/solder job.

Well I am sceptical of larger than necessary injectors. Being able to control it is one thing, but what about the fuel mixing thoroughly with the incoming air?

What ecu is used in the video? I'm sure bit all ecu's would be able to control such low opening times.

For sure allow some head room, but be realistic about the flow you really need.

At a stoichiometric idle? Which the video wasn't. ...

Going off my wideband they were fine (which I'm sure Brett is referring to in his post). The old wreck Sard 800's were 10 times more grumpy than the ID2000's are.

I have the Haltech pro R34GTR platinum ECU, I would think it should do the job if we went that way. Just getting my head around injectors, well the best I can in a day or 2 :) haha

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
