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.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
