Yes I know this is a strange question but bear with me...

Basically I want to know if RB20DET injectors will fit an RB25DET standard manifold where the injector SEATS ON THE MANIFOLD, not the rail. I know RB20 are top feed and RB25 are side feed but I would be changing to a top feed rail anyway so that's not an issue.

The reason I'm asking this is not because I want to use standard RB20 injectors but because I am thinking of using upgraded DW 440cc injectors for an RB20 as they are considerably cheaper than the other options (upgraded DW RB26 top feed or RB25 side feed).

I have considered the option of getting used standard RB26 injectors but then I also have to factor in the cost of potentially needing them flow tested and cleaned and new o-rings which easily adds up to $200 on top of the initial purchase price. So it could end up being cheaper for me to get brand new injectors, which is a no-brainer.

Here's a link to the DW injectors: http://www.deatschwerks.com/products/fuel-injectors/sport-compact/nissan/skyline/rb20det/1989-94-rb20det/18u-02-0440-6-detail

Cheers,

they are just an ev14 injector, it can fit but you need to make some custom spacer type shims for them to sit in.

just like doing any top feed injector conversion on a rb25 - pretty standard stuff, so $325 for the injectors, plus getting a fuel rail, and a after market regulator, then you need to stuff around with the spacers for it to fit and all the extra fuel hoses and fittings, at the end of the day it will cost a few hundred $ more then grabbing a set of used nismo 555cc side feed injectors that is a drop in..

look around there are better options out there.

Thanks for your input, but I'm sort of shying away from used injectors because I have no way of knowing if they will need cleaning, whether they are a flow matched set etc. I can get shims made pretty easily/cheaply so that wouldn't be too much of an issue, but it's still a bit of mucking around I would rather not have to do, so I'll keep looking around.

    • Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020
    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now. 
    • You sir, big win tonight. Precision never supplied compressor maps in the past and Idk when they started, but it seems they only offer for a few of the older gen2's which is exactly what I have. I punched in some numbers and seem to have gone with the wrong turbo. 600-700whp isn't in the most efficient area and is close to the choke line. 800whp is well off the map. Punching the numbers into a 68mm gen2 turbo map is bang on in the center. Here I was thinking going smaller would shift the power band down, but in reality it would just make it so much worst due to my rev limit. I would have never thought. 
    • Increasing overlap will bring the torque down earlier (and make your idle sound sick lol). Worth a shot (if you dyno time) to experience a bit (providing you are confident your valves won't kiss your pistons). Is to just take off 5 degrees across the boosted area of the map, and then retard the exhaust cam let's say, 3 degrees at a time and then overlay all the runs with VCT on all the way and VCT off as soon as you make positive pressure. Ideally you would have a total of 6x overlays to looks at 0 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve 0 exhaust & VCT on all the way -5 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -5 exhaust & VCT on all the way -10 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -10 exhaust & VCT on all the way Just leave your O2 wideband closed loop on for all of the boost area & RPM, and hopefully there isn't too much fuel correction needed and the Haltech is fast enough to compensate (I do this, then apply the correction to the main table). Getting that overlay data should give you a good indication of what to aim for.
    • So, my main limitation here is that the car does not have an oil pressure sensor by default, just a switch. As part of my tune I bought an oil pressure sensor upgrade so I now have access to oil pressure levels and logging rather than just the boolean behaviour of the switch but this means I need to use the tuning app to display this value. So, this rules out using any other app on the iPad. The app will also flash when pressure drops which is a nice feature. I have replaced the centre screen with an Android one, which is awesome for Android Auto, but I think it might be too far away and out of my line of sight. I might add some gauges to it this weekend and just see. I guess if its just temp and oil pressure I can make them massive! 🤣
