Im looking at getting upgraded injectors for my r33 gts-t and it looks like ill need top feed ones and im going with id brand, either 720? Or 850s. Thing is i dont know much about fuel rails and injector installs. Ill get a shop to fit, but can someone explain a bit about whats needed, sizes and how it fits together? I hear id need short version injectors for rb25det etc...

And with a fuel rail, id buy the rail, but does that just bolt on generally, to the oem hoses and parts etc? Do i need to buy additional parts, etc?

Thanks

Go to scottys customs website and have a look. He has a conversion kit all you need is the short injectors!

All there all done for you. You could even email him or find him on Facebook and message him about it.

He's been a great help to me but because I want the stock look I'm going Nismo 740CC

I've been following your posts for ages now! I'm using your fuel pump guide next week :)

hhahahaa sweet man!

Yeah, hit up Scotty - he has all the parts and I've measured out all the spacers for him already so he knows exactly what to supply based on what application

And whats the deal with fuel pressure regulators? Why/when is this needed?

Usually not needed. You have two main reasons to need one.

1) You are living in the early 1990s and you cannot buy bigger injectors or better engine management. The only way to get more fuel into your engine is to bump up the pressure.

2) You are fitting an aftermarket fuel rail and cannot put your OEM regulator onto it. Ergo you have to buy a reg that will fit.

For most people the OEM reg is able to flow enough return fuel for quite large fuel pump upgrades without losing control of the fuel pressure. Once you get past that point THEN you have a really good reason to buy an aftermarket reg.

How much power do you need to support? Drop in a set of S15 injectors? Would be plenty for a hi-flow turbo.

If not just go Nismo 740cc or any other drop ins you can get your hands on.

Then no need for cop-attracting fuel rail, fancy hosing or aftermarket reg to over complicate things.

This is the reason I'm going 740s :)

      Blue slip

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.

      Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?

      You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By Duncan · Posted

      yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
