Hey guys,

After installing my forward facing plenum on my r33 gtst the car is missing, backfiring and shaking struggling to stay alive.

Iv checked for vacuum leaks, bov seems to be working and fuel isn't old.

Could it be

My AAC valve air feed line from intercooler piping has a slight kink in it?

Afm,plugs,coil packs haven't been touched.

Injectors were taken out and flipped but I tried to handle them with care.

Has anyone had this happen to them?

Any of the injectors might not be firing if you have caused a connection issue on the loom plugs (or something similar).

A slight kink in the pipe to the AAC won't cause a problem, unless it has cracked or otherwise gotten damaged. As long as there is a bigger open area in the kinked part of the hose than the opening of the valve in the AAC it won't restrict flow noticeably.

Could pressure on the injector while it was out cause this?

A bending of one of the prongs that are on the tip of the injectors while they were on the bench do this?

    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, much easier to work with it now it's free!  
    • I _think_ that one has a christmas tree or some other retainer spike into a hole in that panel under it. Come in under it with thin scredrivers and just pry it gently up. If you rip the ears off the retainer pin....so what? Just stick it back down after with a bit of race tape and carry on with life.
