R32 GTST, RB20.

Stock AFM, stock ECU.

TD06-20G

I've just finished installing Nismo 550cc injectors (to suit GTR) as well as wired in the GTR resistor pack.

Before I tow it to my tuner to have a nistune installed and tuned, if I try to start the car will it run on idle?

I just want to make sure there are no fuel leaks and I have wired up the injectors correctly.

Not looking to drive the car just want it to idle..

Car will run very rich (double the fuel it would normally get with the stockers), the spark plugs are guaranteed to be fouled. Depending on the lag time of the Nismo's vs stock injectors, it might not even idle.

It will sit and idle fine mate, you can even rev it a bit as long s you don't get on boost.

Its not till it gets under load it will flood.. I wouldn't recommend driving it. I actually tried driving mine with 650s ,I got around the block before the plugs started to foul, it was spluttering alot and I barely got it home after that..If your mechanic is less than a km away and you drove very slowly, you would make it..

i agree , it cant hurt to make sure its at least idling before going for a tune otherwise you could be paying extra for the tuner to sort out an idle issue if it doesn't when you get it there..

i started mine just cause im a curious bugger and was actually surprised at how well it did idle, i got overconfident and tried to drive it...didnt work :no:

No idea, seemed like the easiest way to get to the injectors and I had to pull the loom out to modify.

Gave me room to replace both rocker cover gaskets and check vacuum lines (worn/old)

No biggie

    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
