Hello

I learned about 550cc injectors made by a comapny called Deatschwerks. I tried finding info about them on the web and cant find many reviews. I have read that people use them but no one has really put up a review about them.

Does anyone know if they are good injectors for the rb20 or should I stick with Nismo, Sard, or Tomei?

I got the 444 from them. The flowchart that came with mine said they're matched around 458cc.

Really noisy, the idle is a little more erratic than with the standard ones but nothing to worry about, AFR are stable on idle, cold start or hot start are as good as standard.

No problem so far with 10 000 km on them on P98.

The only downside is the noise, if I had a quieter exhaust the only thing I could hear would be them.

Double check the latency, I chose the 444cc because of it, the 555cc latency is almost two times longer from memory, and I didn't really need much more on P98 anyway.

On E85 I would buy the 650cc directly.

They come with adapter plug so they're really drop in.

Just excite them with a battery before installing them. I had to excite one directly from the battery to get it to open. Then it worked like a charm.

I purchased mine directly from their site.

Really? Really?

Their sidefeeds are as good as water pistols, similar to Five-O Motorsport Garden hoses.

Since its a RB20 I would just go EV14 or IDs if you have the cash to burn.

Im using their 700cc. Noise is about the same as stock GTR. They are a touch fluffy at idle, but a

power fc idle reset got rid of most of it. Pretty common on any aftermarket injector larger then stock.

I am of the opinion that they over rate their injectors

I have their pump as well and that has been tested and around 10% over rated- although they might test with no lines, I tested in the car. Pretty stupid to rate a pump without lines

Maybe alter the search parameters to "hydrolock, Deutschwerks" and you should get some hits.

Same goes with Five-O Motorsport... I made the mistake of buying a set, recently just spent a kidney new injectors.

However being a RB20DET, and with your power goal in mind.. Stock 444cc GT-R injectors would be tits.. drop in, wire up resistor pack, rescale and off you go

I have a set of Deatschwerks 550s in my car now - have had them for about 5 years and they seem ok. However I believe they are just "remanufactured" Nismos or something and when I upgrade I will be getting IDs or Bosch or whatever they are.

DW, Five-O, ANSU, all they do is get a JECS injector and grind off the 4x hole tip which helps with the spray pattern. They then carefully enlarge the remaining single hole to increase overall flow.

I've had a look at both side feeds, and I actually own a set of Five-O and how they're produced are identical... If you look carefully you can see grind marks.... it's sad.

I have them and a pump in my old rb20 in the 32.

They seem fine, im running an rb25 turbo at 14psi and Nistune as well.

182.8 kw safe (a little rich) tune.

The best thing about them is the ease of install, they just go in like Nissan parts, no fking around.

You wont need to worry about correct resistance like if you get gtr injectors.

You get a test flow chart and spec sheet for your tuner.

So... cheap, maybe crap quality like others have said, but ok for small goals, and very easy to install.

It all comes down to the old questions of your goals and budget.

Soo much miss information here.

DW are not jecs not even remotley close. They are bosch.

They do not have re-drilled single holes and do provide a accurate spray pattern.

However this may be true with other brands mentioned.

My Dw have been perfect so far.

I had no difficulty installing.

Tuner had no probs what so ever, neither has running idle through to Wot.

Jecs left , Dw right.... ahh bit more than a hory regrind n drill hah

    • For DBA, check out their guide table here. https://dba.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Direct_Replacement-Guide-2021.2.pdf   Additionally they have some other guides and info on how to make sure you choose the right pad.
    • Sorry, just assumed that talk of coloured pads meant EBC red/green/yellow/shit stuff. I don't know the DBA pads, but it's a reasonable bet that they will be OK. DBA make good stuff generally. Those 4000 series rotors I linked to are very good. I may well replace the RDA rotors I have with those when required.
    • The average previous owner for these cars were basically S-chassis owners in the US. Teenagers or teenager-adjacent. I often tell people that neglect is easier to fix than something that was actively "repaired" by previous owners.
    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
