injector sound?my first skyline , so im new too these motors, sorry if this is a dumbass question,  Bought this  R33 rb25det today, it was a fair price and the guy has spent alot of money on parts ( pistons, injectors , new turbo , rods, acl bearing , seals, basically alot of stuff upgraded )  he says the sound is just the injectors because they are bigger then normal ? but what do you guys think?? He did say the car had been sitting in the shed for a couple of month, as he wasnt able too drive manual anymore because of his legs ( was a old man )  ...  so it does 100% need a tune, but the car boost HARD and it drives nice other then the rough idle when i come too a stop ( im guessing it needs the tune or the BOV is messing with it ? ) .... so i dont know if this sound is even anything i should be worried about?  please let me know what you guys thinkk, thanks fellas

Video of sound * ---- > injector sound?

are you sure man?? maybe if u put head phones on you will hear the constant face toned ticking . rattling, sounds like its from that big silver manifold? chamber ? .. do all rb25 motors do that if they have bigger injectors put in?
i mean he says too me that its the injectors and nothing wrong with the car besides needing a tune for sitting in the shed for a while.. so ye..thanks anyway for ur help dude

ok thanks fellas i guess ill stop stressing over it then. and ben it seems too idle pretty rough when coming too a step, or giving it a squirt, almost like its choking? but doesn't completely stall, just bit low on idle. would tune not fix this? since it been off the road for a while maybe its not firing right? i dunno i just brain storming ideas.. or do u think it could be because there is a bov on it, ive read that could f**k with the idle at low rpm.. cheers

      I drive the Tiguan much harder than the Skyline in all conditions, because it just grips and hooks, unlike the R33 shit box

      The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.

      When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.

      Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.

      This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
