Ive just chucked some injectors in my R34 Gtt, these one's: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Nissan-skyline-NEO-r34-Stegea-350z-370z-infinity-g35-bosch-750cc-Fuel-injectors-/180959307948?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2a2203e8ac

Now my question is, they seem to have a lot of movement? Like i can twist them now their installed? Is this because they are to small? I measured them as best as i could and the length and diameter seemed right? Or do most new injectors have a little movement? No up and down or side to side, just i can twist them. They were tight into the rail and head.

Just a little concerned before i pressure the system up and spray fuel everywhere.

Cheer's.

I d the same issue and when JEM pumped fuel up to it they leaked, they ended up changing the O rings to the correct size... (the workshop that fit mine were retards)

I installed some Deatschwerks injectors into my GTT recently, they were very tight with the supplied o-rings. Sounds like you might have an issue.

Sorry I just read you original post properly - I could twist mine with a bit of force (they were tight in all other dimensions of movement though).

Maybe you will be ok :) Did you use lots of grease or oil when installing them into the head?

Oh wicked. That means it has to all come apart again :verymad:

Yeah i used some rubber grease i was recommended. Ive got a few other jobs half way through before i feel comfortable priming the fuel system, will try and knock them off and try it with a extinguisher handy. Wouldnt be so bad if the stock manifold wasnt such a carnt to get off and i never tried em till i'd put it back on :( FML.

Just to clarify, you actually do want a bit of movement in there. They shouldn't be solid. You should be able to rotate them with your thumb and forefinger, but they should feel firm, not loose. If you tighten them up more than that then you may pinch/warp the seals.

Thanks for the input guys. They are firm, dont just free-wheel if you know what i mean. The other issue is i cannot re-use the injector retaining clips due to the spacer design.

Aaaah its been to long in between playing with cars ive forgotten everything! Damn kids!

Sounds like they are ok then mate. My old Power Enterprise injectors didn't use the retainer clips either and they were fine. So long as the rail is solid and the injectors are firm, you should be ok :thumbsup:

So these never leaked when I primed them with the stock pump. Have since installed a Walbro and wired it with a proper 12v supply.

Finished everything on it today and went to start it and the extra pressure from the Walbro and they leaked.

Fook!

      I should. But it already uses too much fuel for a daily. You might note my recco for engine chnages are almost exclusively to people who have it as a weekender/summer car. I don't even have room to keep the spares for this one, let alone another car.

      If I had "perfect R33 GTR" kinda money I would have bought one of the crazy expensive low mileage HJA cars, but I am sadly not that wealthy. I already picked this car out of various Skylines for sale locally, most of which were worse in some way. Only a few cars were actually better but also more expensive. In terms of buying a motor locally, I at least have the option to inspect it myself and juding the seller as a person, and used or freshly rebuilt engines that some people sell are actually ok price-wise. I knew the car was going to require work, but shit piled up real fast and I haven't even driven 1000km yet as the turbo started oiling like a bitch within a few weeks after I got the car.   I assume it wasn't actually me who cracked it, though there is no way to know when that crack formed and if the previous owner even knew it was there. Buying another 05U Block can be a gamble, yeah, but the cheapest PRP cast block is like twice or more money-wise, and billet is 3 or 3 times as much. For now I am most likely just keeping the current engine, as a rebuild or engine swap isn't happening right now. But I am seriously considering buying a second engine and selling mine in return. Might be a sweet deal at the end.

      RB26 turbo oil banjo bolts

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Hi all. I need some help buying the correct size banjo bolts for my 2860 turbos. Because whoever installed them tore up the original part, I ordered new ones of this kind, because I just figured these were the most leak-resistant option as I already had trouble with a shitty braided line. I need to know the thread size of the smaller left hole, that is the turbo oil feed connection. I found out so far that the turbo oil inlet apparently has a 7/16"-24 thread, but I cannot find any listing or description of the thread size on this line. I do not have the original bolts. I tried using the bolts that were in the turbos (the ones that were mounted with the shitty braided line) but they sit very loosely so they can't be the right thread. Means either these bolts are the wrong ones (how do they fit the turbo then? no clue) or the wraparound-lines have a different thread than the turbo oil feed itself. Help is appreciated, asking Nissan directly is obviously not going to work.

      EDIT: PSA to whoever stumbles upon this thread. It is in fact a crack in the block that caused this concern. Just letting you know. In my case, a few cm long hairline crack going horizontally above the turbo oil feed. Classic RB shit I guess
