I have a r33gtst that is booked for a tune tomorrow.

I have all the supporting mods like r34 highflow, power fc etc.

My goal is about 240 atw

I bought a 1000cc topfeed xspurt injector kit from scottynm35 and even though i assumed they were too big, i was told that they are a much more modern design, can flow well at all power levels and therefore would be suitable for my application.

however the tuner tells me they are way too big and will not be suitable for my goals, he told me he can safely run the stock injectors by upping the fuel pressure with my aftermarket fuel reg.

What do you guys think?

Thanks

Strictly speaking, they are too large.  You'll only need ~1ms pulse width to idle on petrol and you therefore have very little ability to tune the idle mixtures.  But it will work.  Idle may be slightly fluffy, or it could be perfect.

On E85 it would be easier.

But what you were told by others than your tuner is true.  They will work, and they will allow you to go E85 later very easily.

I shudder in horror at the thought of jacking up the fuel pressure to achieve 240 rwkW on factory injectors.

Run the 1000ccs, technology has already advanced so far over the last 10 years, they'll be fine
Upping fuel pressure with stock injectors will only lift the headroom by so much over the 200rwkw, works fine but stresses your fuel pump and affects injector lag time anyway

My main concern is, will the car run perfectly on the 1000cc injectors? i dont want it to not idle well or run just "fine".
I will speak to the tuner later today about it, but its looking like i will just cancel and wait a bit longer.
it definitely did not seem right to just up the fuel pressure on the stock injectors. The thing is the tuner is very reputable among the skyline and silvia community and i have heard nothing but good things about him.

If your tuner is smart, and say in the event those milled X-Spurts (I don't have experience tuning them) don't idle well on 98RON, you can drop the fuel pressure to say 2.5bar with the vac hose off on idle (then connect it back once you've finished setting the FPR).

This means now you can run higher pulsewidths and have the correct amount of fuel injected to maintain the idle and AFR of your choosing and you have plenty of headroom for the future.

I've got 1000cc IDs....no issues on idle.  I'm pretty sure there about about 1,000 others on here who'll tell you the same.

Keep the IDs, get a new tuner.

Called up chequered tuning and they said it would be no problem, so going for a tune with them. :-)

i was told the new injectors dont have filters though. Does anyone know where i can get some? (Dont know much about injectors)

Very good plan :)

 

Trent is good, he will sort it out. Seen several maps most of which are very good.

Seen big tuning shops in Sydney with tunes that could be done by a 2 year old holding the number 8 key.

    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.

    • Hence why I've only modified my car into a pure daily. Everything has to remain reliable & roadworthy, while providing value and grin factor. It also must not be handcrafted to the extent that the car will be immovable if something breaks because you cannot get or make a replacement to at least limp around with.
    • Nah, I definitely do that kind of stuff with my car. I do drive it around as a daily! It's just that mindset about building a car to actually still use/retain it's function as a car is rare. If you modify your car into a weekender, IMO you've ruined 5/7ths of the fun. It should remain fun to do daily errands in.
