Hi all,

I've recently had some work done to my r32 gtr, (larger injectors, boost increase, adjusted cams) and have had a retune (nistune).

I've driven the car and competed in a hill climb, and all is well, however all of a sudden was unable to start the car.

After investigating- turns out the injectors are high impedance not low (was advertised as direct replacement - I guess that doesn't mean anything!). I've now removed the resistor and it's now running again.

So my long winded question is - would it need to be retuned now the injectors are getting correct ohms/power?

Or doesn't it make a difference? Was strange how it was running well for a week....

This is weird. I wired a power fc for a gtr to work in a gtst. I got it and it all worked good. Of course I had no vtc. What I learned was that all rb ecu wants to see a high impedance resistance. The rb25 are high impudence injectors and the gtr rb26 are low but the gtr has a resistor pack to boost the low impedance injectors to a high ohm reading. So in short all ecu's wants to see high impedance signal. I really think nissan thought peopel wouldn't get this. Lol. If you have high impedance injectors on a rb26 ecu.?? Just get rid of the resistor pack (rewire) it and you will be ok. From a resistance stand point.

Um....Marcus....that's exactly what he said and did.

OP.......Yes, retune. The opening behaviour of the injectors will be different without the resistor - effectively the latency will probably be changed the most - so it will affect light load mixtures more than high load, but still worrth doing.

Awesome - thanks for the help guys.

Such a pain in the backside - as it only just came back from the tuner!

So are the injectors slower to open? I'd hate to be driving it running too lean...

Yes GTSBoy I agree thats what he was saying. I may have missed somthing tho. A rule of thumb for me is. Any mods to fuel or air should be mapped and retuned. Intresting info GTSBoy as I never thought it would affect the injectors the way you mentioned it. I will be looking into this. Also intresting to know it would make more difference in the down low area. Hmmmm

    • Cheers fellas, I got a price for a r33 gtst box was 1500 including post and thought it was too cheap  
    • The SS button head cap screw on the back? If so, good to know. I presumed it was there for basic assembly and nothing more. 
    • Hello, everyone. I'm new to the forum. I have a 1989 Nissan Skyline R32 GTR. I have lost all power to the interior, including AC controls, the gauge cluster, turn signals, and windows. Stuff that still works includes the horn, brake lights, radio, and headlights. All fuses, in the interior and exterior boxes, tested good.  It starts and runs fine, just with no gauge power or anything stated above. No warning lights either. Things that I have tested: - Fusable link tested fine - No other fuses blown - Alternator good - IGN switch tested fine - With my power probe, I can backfeed power through the IGN pin to the plug on the back of the gauge cluster, and everything comes back on.    So my theory is something on the control side that sends the ignition power through the system isn't doing its job, or a wire is broken. (I would think that it is the ignition switch that would do that, but who knows?). The ignition relays don't fire (all relays tested good). So what tells them to fire other than the IGN switch?  I would really appreciate it if someone had some insight on this. I have tons of hours into this; I don't want to give up in defeat! I have the HD wiring diagram, but having all those wires laid out like that on one sheet of paper makes things pretty hard to follow.  Thanks for reading, and thanks for the replies.  Where should I look next? Thanks.
    • Install a MAP sensor pre and post throttle. Best data you could have for NA, then play with the bends and/or air box and see how much of inflection is created at WOT on the plot.
