you could probably get a set of 550's for that

Generally you pay $550-650 second hand and then get them cleaned $120-150.

New $900 upwards

At $720 for a set high flowed they should be as good as new if they do not have problems.

well I have heard of hiflowed injectors being checked and they had a huge difference in flow for each injectors if you can't afford the proper injectors you can't afford the up grade. raising the rail pressure will get you a higher tolerance of power I would do that b4 hi flowiing injectors or even use r x7 injectors as tony said.

there is no cheap way to get performance

btw note you said the approx flow rate is 590 cc you buy a nissan sard apexi or denso injecotr and they tell you exactly what they flow not approximates.

how big is your turbo stock injecotrs can support p 400 hp @ the fly wheel when the pressure is raised

They are 590cc each. was told they would be within 1cc of each other. I should not have used the word "approx"

The same guy told me to be aware of Sard injectors from his experience he has had too many failing to reach there specified CC rating.

The only RX7 injectors that are side feed for the rb25 are 13b S6 or cosmo or 20B primaries.

Try finding them under about $200 each!!! second hand $1200 set of 6. I have.

To use top feed rx7 injectors requires a new fuel rate etc. more cost.

I am actually seriously considering going down this path, I can apparently get it done for around $200 for all 6 injectors through a connection I have.

When I get around to having it done, after I will get them flow tested and post up the results. That way we can have some solid data on the benefits, if any.

Well, according to SK in a previous thread, proper hi-flowing costs about $200 per injector -- a little less if labour is free -- and on that basis its cheaper to buy new ones.

Haven't been able to find the thread warning against hi-flows yet (as per Megalla's post).

I seriously doubt that :( :Oops:

Wow... A member of the automotive industry putting a bad word on a competitor's service/product?!?! Well I'll be!!!!!!!!!

Bottom line is, high flows are made by attacking the injectors with a drill. Ask him for a 100% MONEY BACK guarantee of a 1cc difference across the range of injectors, to be tested by an independant source, and see what he says :)

Even new injectors have upto a 5-6cc difference across the range. You can tune this out via a programmable ECU like the PowerFC, or fit the higher flowing ones in the leaner cylinders.

If your budget can accomodate new injectors, go for it...

If not, I suggest second hand injectors of your required size and have them ultrasonically cleaned and flow tested...

If you're building an "N1" spec car like Dundan, then I guess you have no choice but to take a gamble and get your injectors drilled out, but that would be the last option on my list :spcow:

so that comment would mean that all nippon denso injectors are unreliable as the brand name SARD merly applies to the box they came in .Nearly all aftermarket japanese injectors are made by nippon denso to be resold by these companies eg.hks sard nismo etc

Thats a very good marketing tool, call everyone elses product shit and then claim 1cc difference between the products you butcher/highflow :cheers:

someday people will realize that this industry is full of fallicies and old wives tales(read:bull5hit).Unless i see or prove something with my own eyes or have the info coming from a trusted and/or reliable source it cannot be trusted. There is nothing like the self satisfaction of proving results for yourself.

The company offering to do the work are a "Advanced Performance Centre" without mentioning names

They build plenty of fast cars to PROVE their work

9.97 GSR and

Australia fastest front wheel drive CRX

Just to name a few

So I can only assume they know what they are talking about.

The very same can be said about internet forums.....

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
