hey

i am having an issue with the new motor in my r33.

its a series 2 and the car over fuels big time at idle.

i changed the injectors out of the old motor and put them into the new motor and its miss firing but not over fueling any more.

the injectors removed are grey coloured (too much fuel) and the ones that went in are purple tops??

dose any one know what these purple tops are??

cheers James

yeah im taking the plugs out tonight to clean them.

the purple tops were in the first motor that went bang. i sold the old head of it and number 4 piston had very bad divits on the top of it.

im assuming due to detionation, but the engine was stock standard.

im assuming that number 4 injector must have been dropping in and out for a while and that is was caused the engine to go bang.

the missus who drives the car said it would just start miss firing and carrying on and then every time i was driving it it was fine.

getting back to the injectors are these purple tops hard to come by??

Uh I wanted to check which injectors I had on my skyline and I guess now they are the standard purples. What I tried to do was take off the two top screws to find a part number and f**k me I almost completely stripped the screw trying to get it out. Any trick to getting them out? Engine was warm when I tried so I let it cool to the metal was not expanded but still no luck. WD40 help?

Puts me into modified class though :/

try some boiling water over it and hit the top of the screw driver with a hammer

you might have to grind the head off and drill it out, who would know it was not factory anyway? just paint it black , you'd have to know rbs to know if it werent stock.

    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat 
    • I saw your intro update, are you sure you've actually had a starter motor failure? You mention it could be the alarm causing it. I'm assuming you've got a no start issue, but what are the exact symptoms, as there could be a few reasons it has stopped wanting to start.
