So I've done some more researching lol. It appears I need a bigger pump and not bosh cos they only have 500hr life on e85 and somewhere between 1000 and 2000cc injectors and then a tank of nectar. I guess the hunt for parts begins

I've read everything and hence my surprise at some of the recommendations. Should have been clearer that I was whinging rather than asking. Seen enough threads to know what miserly GTR owners have shown works.

I was expecting to install the turbos and run stock piping and intercooler. But hard to TELL the mechanic what is best when he considers it his job to know. So new mechanic may be the way to go.

So thanks everyone for the usual "assistance".

does the fuel rail need to be replaced? I read on one thread it does then in another it doesn't. I wouldn't think you would have to. And what do u guys recommend minimum cc injectors. There are some 800cc for sale that say e85 compatible.

Stock fuel rail is fine.

Injector sizing is dependent on what you want from the car power wise. Usually 1000cc Xspurts are what I recommend, unless you want more than 400kw in the future on e85.

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
