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:

  • 4 weeks later...

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!

    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
    • Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
