I'm in need of some advice. I've spent several days researching injectors, brands, flows, etc. and I'm not 100% positive on what works. I have a set of JECS red top side feed for my RB25DET S1 and two went bad. From what I have read is the JECS red tops flow at 225cc and ohm reading at 14.8. Can anyone else confirm this? Also, I have a hard time finding a straight answer on if it's ok to go larger in flow size even is your motor doesn't require it. Most forum discussions get way off topic and it seems like it's never truly answered. I plan to call a local shop to have the injectors cleaned and serviced at $18 each but I don't want to spend the money if I can throw in a larger size injector for larger power numbers down the road. I've found a local guy who would sell me a set of 600cc at 11.5 ohms for a couple hundred.Would this work or just flood out the motor? I would appreciate any advice or comments anyone may have.

Surely you don't want to put in bigger injectors without a tune?

If you do of course it will flood. The ecu doesn't know you have put in bigger injectors.

No tune means stock injectors. It's that simple.

As ben said, if you're running sock ecu then stick to stock injectors or it will run like arse and you'll just waste fuel. If you're still running the stock turbo then stick with the stock injectors as you don't need the bigger injectors.

Save putting in the bigger injectors until you plan on putting a bigger turbo on and then just do it all then.

The turbo is the hks Kai setup with the greddy eManage. Have a greddy intake, ku engineering tb, greddy fmic, and hks built head. This is what i know so far. Bought the car as is and still finding more aftermarket parts every time I look at it.

Thank you everyone for your input. I took the injectors down to the local shop to be cleaned and flowed. Guy there said they looked like a custom flow set. Something about the ends not being originals. See what happens in the next few days.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
