Highing flowing Injectors Good or Bad??


Recommended Posts

darrinspencer, I dont think I understand what you were hoping to achieve with this thread.

All replies have been along the same line, dont trust a salesman, dont trust highflows, and dont trust anyone telling you you can get 590cc out of stock injectors with a drill to within 1cc. To top it off, they slam denso injectors? (are the stock ones denso aswell?) - yet you then say words to the effect that 'these guys know what they are doing'.

If you truely believed that, why even ask others opinions????? Like I said, I sort of fail to see what you were hoping to achieve with this thread? Am I missing something?

sounds pretty sus, ah well if i was u i'd get a set of nismo 740cc injectors brand new from nengun, i got them for $994 delivered...there higher cc if u wanna do bigger upgrades, they're new, and not dodgy...just my opinion...

cheers...ben.

I think he was after first hand experience.

Exactly Adam

I was after first hand experience

Not a bunch of guys who have never tried it or seen them used with a opinion

Steve- Does not matter where you go a salesman will always tell you his product is better or the best way to do the job. Is a Ford better then a Holden, ask the salesman, he will tell you.

I wanted some first hand experience, I am not a injector expect and by the answers in this thread, either is anyone else.

Even though this isnt a first hand experience, the place I am looking at getting my injectors high flowed, and where i get all my work done, currently has a R33 gtst with highflowed injectors.

The results were apparently quite good. I dont have the exact figures, but I was told by my mate who works there that after getting them done they were able to make more power and with less injector duty. This car regularly competes at various track days here in melb, and is daily driven.

I was also told the method of highflowing was drilling them out by a thou.

darrinspencer, there is no way in hell that they will get the injectors within 1cc - if they are liing about that, what else.

but hey, its your car.

Oh, and I think B-man had some high flows in his car - lost his ringlands, it may be worth asking him what he thought of them. He is running aftermarket injectors now.

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
