6 x Xspurt 1000's and Proflow RB25 rail would be around $800 through me I think Mark, with all adapters.

Scotty - will that rail fit with the stock plenum? We are looking at going to E85 in the next few months, so I am interested in an injector upgrade.

I think so mate, the 1000's might be a tight fit, but the shorty 750's and 2000's are definitely no issue. I may even be able to get 1000's in the same shorter 1/2 length.

The SR20 rail kit I sell comes with a plenum spacer to help the 1000's clear the upper plenum. Perhaps you could do a similar thing to the RB plenum halves using bakelite or a similar insulating material, that way you would stop the heat transfer into the upper plenum also.

What paper filter are you using, I was told to be careful when use paper filter cause the ethanol can/does eat away the "glue" that holds the filter element to the casing

I'm using a speed flow 10 micron stainless sceen filter but the paper ones can go down to 5-6 micron which would be better

I am using twin Proflow stainless mesh filters, I haven't cleaned them in 3-4 years, since they were installed. I can't remember what micron they were...

The paper filters I have been buying were SX brand, suitable for alcohol fuels. (They have a similar 8an housing to the proflow/Speedflow style filters, and might just drop in to them.) I run the SX fuel reg in my car without issues so I knew it was good gear.

A little Googling reveals Arram as a Japanese manufacturer who make injectors, throttle bodies and carburetors.

Yeah, just wasn't much info and didn't know if these were common in rb20's or not.

Most of the stuff says 550cc, so should be all good, cheers. ;)

Hopefully it doesn't cost you too much dyno time to set them up, it can take a while to work out suitable lag times etc with unusual injectors, and you are paying good coin for every minute it's on the dyno.

Unless you have the lag time report with them? Might be worth trying to source one.

Never knew injectors even came with a "Lag time report" lol..

I was going to get them tested and flowed before I chucked them on anyway. I think they're a little old.. :P

To save starting a new thread.....

Is the contents of this thread still relevant?!?!

As in are the ID injectors still worth paying basically twice the price or are the EV1-Bosch items closer to the mark 5 years down the track?

(Looking for 11mm units to suit standard RB26 fuel rail to get me around the 400rwkw mark on E85...)

ID1300x or 1250cc.....?!?

There are better options (than ID specifically) and have been for years.  You should perhaps PM Scotty to find out what he can do for you.

Basically, if you can get unmolested EV14 injectors in the size you need, that is best approach.  But even the ones that have been decapped are pretty good.

I had tried pming Scotty before posting but either his inbox is full or there's an SAU issue as i just get an error saying he can't receive messages, or something similar....

Cheers for the reply though....

I do have the 1250cc injectors that Kudos sell in my 'cart' but after reading a few threads on here and then googling I was having second thoughts....

Tier 1 - ID 

Tier 2 (½ the price) - Bosch Motorsport

Tier 3 (aka shit and not worth it, also ¼ the price) - Everything else

Genuine Bosch Motorsport '040' injectors with adapters for RB26 manifold would be the go. I'm sure NZEFI sell them as a kit.

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
