guys, hope someone can shed some light on my problem.

engine specs: RB26 (Stock)

GT40R BB Turbo

Power FC D-Jetro with ID 725cc injectors

problem is that, no matter the amt of inj duty% I input , the A/F ratio remains 12.2 - 12.3 from 7000 - 7600 rpm. low to med loads are ok.

car is running 15psi.

I am thinking maybe a vacum leak, but the car idles @ 850 rpm steady. On WOT, I am seeing a pim voltage of 3.5v.

what you guys think?

ID injectors, the best high imp injectors on the market. (IMO no flaming please)

How did you wire these babys up?

Just wondering.. but....

You just installed them in the stockers place right?

Do me a favour, measure the resistance across the stock GTR injector you took out and then those ID injectors you put in.

Can you see a problem there?

bypass the resistor box , since they are high impedence. the stock inj. are low impedence.

You've really given us f**k all to work with.

We need more information, like power, all mods, not just a half assed post leaving us guessing.

For all we know this engine could be fitted to a monster truck.

Car is being street tune. as for mods, read the thread again. if it really matters, car is making about 350 whp. ran it against a r33 with 400whp (dyno tune), and was right behind his bumper.

Have you measured the voltage at the pump?

Are the 725 ID's going to be big enough?

gonna get a fuel pressure gauge and check for pressure drop. did not really suspected this, since everything is new (nismo pump, nismo regulator, ID Inj., fuel rail, fuel filter, turbo etc.)

I just thought with a GT40 you would need a fair bit of flow, I have hit over 80% on the 1000's with a GTX3071 on eflex.

You may be reaching the limits of your pump, depending how you have it mounted and if the sock is close to the bottom of the tank? I found too with more torque, more fuel is required for similar power output.

So I was right all along.

I had this exact problem but you were slowly feeding us scraps with the mods, car type, etc then smartassed me about "reading your scaps" so I gave up helping.

Anyway, glad its solved. Next time you post a thread, post absolutely everything about the car.

Not - "fuel pump maxed out"

"can't be, it's a nismo"

Well, it was, and yes, it was maxed out. Due to low voltage.

    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
    • lights are on just the one click.  
    • Absolutely matters because, while a temperature change will eventually reach a sensor at the end of a static line, the response time is far far far too slow to be useful. Might as well not have a temp gauge at all.
    • When I was eyeing off the 370GT (after deciding I didn't want to spend 30-40k+ to relive my early 20s in an R33) I thought it'd be a good project to add a turbo to it. Now that I have a 370GT, and I've had a couple of chances to open it up, I'm pretty stunned by how much power it makes 🫠 Honestly, the way the VVEL opens it up, it almost feels like there's a little turbo tucked away in there somewhere. It's like Nissan looked at VTEC and said "hold my beer" 😁 Has anyone thrown a turbo into their 370Z or 370GT? Is there a conservative boost level you can run without having to upgrade the fuel system, or are bigger injectors and a bigger pump a given?
