I'm going to be swapping out my RB25DET injectors and I need new seals that relate to it.

I found this for 15 pounds in the UK, but they are just O rings, and no "insulators" Do I need the insulators?

OR do I need the fat rubbers called "insulators" that come with the genuine kit?

It will cost about $80 just for the seals which seems excessive?

Looking to do it this weekend so time is running out to get them.

The insulators are more like buffers, and act like a cushion between the injector and rail.

Normally the o-rings and filter would be replaced, and the buffers if money allows.

You can match them up with universal ones from places like Repco/Peps etc aslong as they fit and are approx the same dimensions.

Unfortunately I have no reference to go on as the Injector swap will be done on the same day. All i have is the second pair of naked injectors that will be going in. Even the pintle caps are missing from them, but I will be leaving them out.

So you are saying I just walk into repco and see what fits by hand? Does anyone know the dimensions and thickness etc? Its of a R33 RB25DET, standard side fed injectors, 370cc I think.

The buffers should probably be replaced too while I'm in there IMO, but are u saying maybe I can re use the ones in there already?

Trying to remember when i pulled my ex gf's apart cause it was leaking (to change the o-rings on 1x injector).

Looking at how the side feed works, as long as the two o-rings are replaced, I doubt you would have any dramas. I cant see where the buffer would sit?

As suggested, pm Scotty :)

Thx. Pm'ed scotty we'll see what happens but I really am hoping to get the car running again by this weekend. The car has had a fresh fuel smell in thee engine bay sometimes since I got it so hopefully replacing everything will fix that problem too.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
