Going by some quick research, so long as you have quad pintle injectors like HKS/Nismo/Apexi then you should have zero problems with idle and fuel economy. It seems the RX7 and SARD injectors are the non-DOHC friendly types and thus you get what you pay for. It seems people with SR20s have had no problems with 740cc quad pintles!

joel mate rx7 ones are fine the spray is pretty much a stream as you say but this is due to the pinttle cap hole being to narrow you need to use toyota ones and drill them out slightly but the patter is quite narrow as opposed to your nismo quad pinttle varieties, but 550cc is small so the differences will be quite small....Also some of the earlier rx7 injectors will actually require you to bore the hole in your head slightly larger so be carefull what you buy if you go down that route. Personally i could never pay the ridiculous prices asked for by the jap brand injectors its bloody daylight robbery.. i use holley injectors in my car (110lbs= 1180cc Units), cause they are cheap, never fail, and alot of the product range is designed for methonol so the seals are alot higher grade but you will not get you your misty spray with these they are pretty savage but very effective!!!!

the rochesters are the same as the holly design they have holes that seperate the spray to give a finer spray pattern but are still single needle or pintle design i will post a pic of the design!!!

Hi Joel, I have a set of 555cc nismo injectors in my RB20. I actually had them checked for flow before i installed them and the results showed that they all flowed Exactly the same amount - 600cc. So yeah, im happy with them but i can't comment on fuel economy as i had a bigger turbo and stuff put on at the same time :D

Generally bigger turbo's under normal driving conditions result in better fuel economy as you tend to be on boost less.

Note the normal driving conditions. :D

Has the fuel consumption changed dramatically even with the mods or?!?

Fuel consumption has got a lot better now that i'm running the stock ecu chipped, especially for highway cruising compared with the microtech that i previously had.

I am lucky to get 300km/h to a tank now with 550cc injectors and GT30 turbo, and thats driving to work and back everyday when my car rarely sees over 80km/h or 4000rpm

One shot at "300km/h" per tank... nice effort mate :P

LOL above

Hey I have YELLOW 555s

Can the colour give an indication on what injectors i may have cause i have no idea

Cheers :D

Well they won't be nismo ones because they are pink, so i dunno....

    • Every time I have to buy new tyres I question what actual difference it makes between running $40 tyres and $300 tyres and whether it's worth it. Because that's a massive difference to the wallet. But then I did go to a driving training at some point which also included emergency braking and swerving in the wet. In part I think it was meant to show people how bad it gets. Funnily enough what I took away from it is that I can go much harder than I thought in my car. I presume mostly because of decent tyres. Some of the other cars there were shocking to behold. And a bit scary that cheap tyres are probably a lot more common on the road than decent ones  
    • I'm pretty sure that is just straight AI generated word soup, where did you receive that ad (facebook)? They misspell Pirelli twice, no human eyes looked at that before it was posted. Incidentally, I am running the chinese pirellis on my V37 and they are.....OK....I didn't go looking for them, they were just what the shop had in stock in the tall size that car needs. LIke any brand, you really can't trust the brand's reputation to apply to every product they produce. Pirelli make good and crap tyres, all with the same logo stamped on them, and all with an attempt at price premium due to the brand
    • Welcome.  It's unfortunate,  but a lot of these vehicles just haven't had regular and thorough maintenance for a long while. Once its back up to scratch, it should provide fun and fairly trouble free motoring.  Keep us updated with what you're doing with it.
    • Ya thankfully I've been able to drive it, it's pretty fun however I noticed yesterday while driving to work that my left side of the car is very wobbly, like any bump I go over it jolts the whole vehicle and pulls the steering wheel, I kicked the wheel a few times once I got home and it's a very distinct metal on metal clunk, so I guess I need to take a look at my suspension, maybe it's a control arm bushing or tie rod
