Gday all,

pardon me if its a silly question- Ive googled it but cant find an answer.

1. Why is there a fuel pressure damper thing on the back of my rb20det fuel rail?

2. Currently mine has no vaccum line attached to it and it runs anyway, should it be connected and to what?

3. What are the consequences if it is not connected (a recent dyno run showed it was running lean, could this be a possible cause?

4. Also does anyone know how to check if my stock fpr is working good enough or should I upgrade

(currently running gtr injectors an bosch 040 pump?

Thanks for any help

Jes

1. To dampen fuel pressure oscillations.

2. The dampeners don't a vacuum feed but the fpr does.

3. If the fpr is not connected your mixtures will be rich on cruise and lean on boost.

4. No problems with STD regs at all.

Great timing for this post! I was just thinking of purchasing one but am a little confused..

Are the RB20det, RB25det and RB26dett Fuel regs the same? Would one of those universal adaptors that fit sr20s and rb26 etc etc also fit?

And what pressure would a standard regulator usually be set around?

Im trying to find a suitable Nismo one to fit in place or even just use a Sard one with the adaptor plate. But nothing states that they will fit a RB20 only a 25. Kind of frustrating mad.gif

Thanks guys

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
