So yeah - I'm actually stuck and need everyone's thoughts and opinions!

Long story short, I know RB25DET NEO plenums like to take 3/4 height top feed injectors, which are approximately 52~55cm o-ring to o-ring in distance. Most will just get a set of 1000cc Bosch injectors OR modified Bosch 1250cc injectors that are of that length. I wanted more fuel supply, so opted for the non-modified Bosch 1550cc (1650cc often advertised) injectors.

These injectors are 1/2 height, and are approximately 40mm o-ring to o-ring in distance, with the correct extension you can make these the same height as your typical 3/4 height Bosch 1000cc or XSpurt 1000cc injector. Below is the same injector now with the extension, giving you that 3/4 height.

Theoretically they now should just bolt up and off you go right? Many sites from various countries tend to advertise 1/2 height injectors with extensions (making them 3/4 height injectors) as direct fit - however here's the fun part, you actually can't even get the injector to go all the way into the injector seat on the RB25DET NEO intake manifold.

They simply just don't work! Problem is, as they are so short before the hard plastic that keeps the o-ring captive doesn't even touch the injector seating area of the intake manifold because the injector plug ends up touching the intake manifold. Being the person that at times thinks outside the box, I went on and installed a bunch of 14mmx5.5mm injector buffers from a GT-R thinking that would solve the problem.

Well - it kind of did, now there's a bit of space and the injectors are somewhat sealing well... but yes, now the connectors won't even go on! because there's simply not enough room. So I am really intrigued how these different suppliers are all listing these injectors as direct fit - when clearly they won't? (noting all the injectors are 1/2 height with either full height or 3/4 height extensions)

So the question, how did you guys with 2000/2200cc Bosch CNG or ID1050/1300/1700 injectors get them on? considering they are all 1/2 height and all require to be extended? I would assume all the plugs would hit the same region and would disrupt how the injector would be seated. And FWIW, I'm using a Plazmaman rail (still, doesn't affect how the connects sit and/or hit the intake).

(yes I even changed extenders so they're identical to the Xspurt kit, I sourced my injectors elsewhere though) 

Also you can't really rotate the plugs upwards because the injectors no longer will seal properly.

My ultimate last option is to go install a R33 intake manifold on my R34 NEO motor (which I don't want to do).

Thanks all!

Funny you said that, I was tempted to grind a bit off the injector connectors so they can clear the top area of the intake manifold.

I more curious to hear/see how guys with NEO motors fit those old 2000/2200 gaysex injectors back in the days as they're all 1/2 height also and 100% would have the same issues.

Some digging around it seems guys with BRZ/86 FA20DI N/A motors actually have the same issue but ID have come up with a solution for them.

I am pretty sure it won't fit inside the RB25 NEO intake manifold

These are my photos, which shows an identical injector setup as per Injector Online.

So you can see that the connector hits the intake manifold, and yes it's possible to turn some of them to allow the injector to be seated in however that means some injectors won't be perpendicular to the manifold (big no no). To make things more fun you also won't be able to get the connectors on lol.

The best and probably only option I have is some form of 14mm to 14mm (male to female) injector seat as such.

I've simulated this using the 1/2 to full length extension (hole is too small I know haha)

Hmmm, this shows size difference on the xspurt webpage.

 

I asked Scotty about this so hopefully he has some info that will help out

Unfortunately you can't get high capacity unmodified injectors in 3/4 height. If you look closely at those tips of the Xspurt 3/4 height they have been milled off.

I've spent decent coin on these unmodified Bosch 1550cc injectors and I do want to run them.

I'm still super curious how people with ID1050/1300/1700X injectors are getting them to fit on NEO motors and also how people with the Bosch 2000/2200 CNG injectors got them to fit. There seems to be zero guides or images for these setups.

My very last options are to either go back to a R33 intake manifold (gay) or buy a Hypertune (over priced) or equivalent plenum such as Otaku Garage/Madcat (China dim sim sui mai spec). 

It would be good to know how much meat is on the manifold before it breaks through to the coolant gallery. You might be able to make enough clearance for the plug by removing aluminum.

Die grinder?

 

I would just go full retard with a die grinder       Grind everything. The manifold. The plug. The injector. Grindr.  make it fit in the hole.

Ben!  Look at your PMs, goddammnit.

I had a close look at a Neo turbo and R33 lower inlet manifold sections and they are quite different in the injector mount area particularly at the manifold face . The Neo puts the injector tip closer to the head than the R33s and doesn't have the recess around the injector tip area at the top of the manifold ports .

Also the ribbed water log is further outwards from the manifold face on the Neo manifold . I'd say this is why the injectors sit deeper into the manifold on the Neo .

I think the sad truth is that unless you can fettle enough out of the manifold without finding air or water to get clearance those short EV14 injectors may not be usable .

Next question may be will the full length injectors work and are they available in a suitable size unmodified ? 

Bad news - after a few e-mails back and forth with Injector Online they too agree that what they have listed is incorrect and they are removing it soon.

TL;DR Do no try and fit 1/2 Height Injectors to a R34 GT-t NEO Intake Manifold, they WILL NOT WORK!

There are plenty of INCORRECT listings all over the web.

Whats your plan now Johnny?

Might slap on the R33 RB25 intake manifold onto the motor OR hope someone knocks on my door takes the car/motor/spare parts and gives me a stock 335i F30 BMW.

There may be a slight fix depending on how much material you can mill off the manifold face of the Neo lower section .

I had a look at the face and a problem is the lack of material around the front water inlet . This would limit how much you can machine off without enlarging this water passage .

If you are prepared to work around this and reset the injector height in the mounting hole it may just be enough to clear everything for your short EV14s .

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
