Injector Tips

[Kurruptt]

Hey guys I am looking at new injectors for my RB26 R33 V-spec skyline I have found some on eBay which are Deatschwerks 1000cc.

I have attached the specs to this post in a picture from ebay. I see a lot of people using id1000s etc but these are more affordable and don't want to spend a heap if I can avoid it.

Any experience with these? Fitting ok? Performance wise?

Thanks so much for your help!

Perhaps the Ebay bloke would be the man to ask, seeing he is selling them?

lol.

I think Johnny used these, he posted in the top feed thread recently.

He's asking for gtr which should be the bosch top feeds I guess?

I don't know they might be cheap but if you add the time and cost to ship them over, you are probably better off getting them locally through Scotty.

Something goes wrong then it's another 2-3 weeks wait and USPS is bloody expensive already

If you get them locally you will at least have a peace of mind that you will get local support and if something is wrong or missing you will get your part quickly

The new Bosch 1000cc injectors have a great spray pattern, and are very easy to control.....easily our favourite injector.

I considered Deatschworks at one point and then found a bunch of reports of poor reliability on the net. That was enough to turn me off.

DW top feeds I cannot comment, however they look like remanufactured Bosch Top Feeds or similar.

DW side feeds are absolute garbage, I initially had good experience with them on the SR platform but on a RB they're just a load of horse droppings. I'm led to believe that the inlet port design of a SR vs A RB is slightly different so the atmomisation characteristics are different.

Anyhow stick to local stuff, you'll end up swearing less

Thanks guys, enough said. This is my first GTR modding experience and I have looked at what other people use and I don't have an unlimited budget sadly....

I appreciate all your help

Considering the fuel pump, injectors and turbo are the critical parts to a high performance car, these are the parts you should be spending big on. Skimping will only end in tears, and retunes are so damn expensive these days, almost the cost of the local injectors you should have bought.

You haven't asked what I can do decent Xspurts for, or how good my after sales service is, you just went to ebay and expected the first cheap injector would do the job. But you will obviously get no help from Ebay sellers, and returning them when they aren't up to the task is expensive or impossible.

It's your coin at the end of the day, just offering our hard earned knowledge as we have all been in your position before.

Been using Deatschwerks 440cc high impedance top-feeds (Bosch EV14) for two years now, starts first crank cold or hot, idles better than stock, and runs smooth to redline.
