ok great, I've heard very good things about them from several tuners, however, it's frustrating that I can't use the injectors I've bought already!

Does anyone know anything about the DW 1500s? I'm getting a bit lost between what's made by Bosch and what build in conjunction with Bosch/DW/ID.. Anyone clear this up?

Cheers

And what happens when the 1500cc injectors can't be scaled correctly? I think you should be looking at your ecu selection before shelling out for new injectors again.

The 1500's have just been released, they are based on the stainless 1300's that ID contracted Bosch to make. If you plan to keep running the Wolf, perhaps asking Aznew to swap the 1400's for ev14 1000's is a better option? They will run a little better down low I imagine.

I was thinking that may be the case Scott. I will quite possibly downsize to 1000s however of course, the stainless internals is what I wanted in the first place and if the only choices are xspurt 1400s or ID1300s, it doesn't leave me too many options.

Now that you have told me about the 1500s just being released, I will steer clear of those at the moment too.

I will definitely upgrade the ecu in time but the problem I have is that I live overseas 8 months of the year and only have a short time to get it sorted.. a better ecu will have to be next time round.

Are the EV14 1000s fairly good at withstanding ethanol?

The only thing I was told about the EV14 1000's is that if they are left sitting for a while you may get issues with ethanol, but driving all the time shouldnt have any problems

The 1300cc Stainless injectors are the ones designed to cope 100% with ethanol, but you pay the price. 1000's should be fine unless the car sits for weeks on end etc

That is the case with the EV14's that started life as a Bosch 550cc that was de-capped/hi-flowed to 1000cc like the ID1000's.

The "New" EV14 1000cc injector from Bosch is stainless and designed specifically to run ethanol etc.

Ok cool. Cheers for the info everyone. Looks like I will have to flush the system with unleaded before letting it sit regardless.

If I run the 1000s I hope I can get enough out of them. Would hate to go through the whole conversion process to find I don't make a power gain because I run out of injector..

Ahh right. Yeah I have seen a little bit on the new proper 1000cc's.

Wish these were around when I'd bought mine but ill live

Me too, I have ID1000's in my car at the moment, I've seen the spray pattern difference between the ID1000 and the new Bosch 1000's....and the new ones are much better

      Rear suspension upgrades

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      People like Johnny Dose Bro might be laughing at my post because I accidentally added 100mm to my numbers. 350-355 is indeed the lower limit. 450 is off-road Skyline spec.

      What is the "compromise" that you think will happen? Are you thinking that something will get damaged? The only things you have to be concerned about with spherical jointed suspension arms are; Arguments with the constabulary wrt their legality (they are likely to be illegal for road use without an engineering certificatation, and that may not be possible to obtain). A lot more NVH transmitted through to the passengers (which is hardly a concern for those with a preference for good handling, anyway). Greatly increased inspection and maintenance requirements (see above points, both).   It is extremely necessary to ask what car you are talking about. Your discussion on strut tops, for example, would be completely wrong for an R chassis, but be correct for an S chassis. R32s have specific problems that R33/4 do not have. Etc. I have hardened rubber bushes on upper rear control arms and traction rods. Adjustable length so as to be able to set both camber and bump steer. You cannot contemplate doing just the control arms and not the traction arms. And whatever bushing you have in one you should have in the other so that they have similar characteristics. Otherwise you can get increased oddness of behaviour as one bushing flexes and the other doesn't, changing the alignment between them. I have stock lower rear arms with urethane bushes. I may make changes here, these are are driven by the R32's geometry problems, so I won't discuss them here unless it proves necessary. I have spherical joints in the front caster rods. I have experienced absolutely no negatives and only positives from doing so. They are massively better than any other option. I have sphericals in the FUCAs, but this is driven largely by the (again) R32 specific problems with the motion of those arms. I just have to deal with the increased maintenance required. Given how much better the front end behaves with the sphericals in there.....I'd probably be tempted to go away from my preference (which is not to have sphericals on a road car, for 2 of the 3 reasons in the bulleted list above), just to gain those improvements. And so my preference for not using sphericals (in general) on a road car should be obvious. I use them judiciously, though, as required to solve particular problems.

      Misfire/stalling issues

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Easiest way to know is to break out the multimeter and measure it when cold, then measure all the resistances again once it gets hot enough to misfire. Both the original ignitor and the J Replace version. Factory service manual will have the spec for the terminal measurements.
