I think his name is John, cleaned my GTR injectors and got them flowing within 2% of eachother. He gave the terminals a clean as well, made sure everything was 100%

From memory it cost me less than $150, I think it was about $130

had the car in tilbrooks cause the car was leaning out.

Thought it was the fuel pump, but replaced that and

still found that i had the same problem. Then borrowed

a standard set of injectors from tillbrooks and got them

cleaned and the car still ran lean when i put them in.

So they think my computer has been chipped, but my

car was stock when i bought it so i have a problem

that no one can figure out.

That's why i got my injectors cleaned.

the fuel pressure reg is now been squished to hold pressure.

this brought the fuel map down .3. From 12.3 to 12, tilbrooks

said it wasn't the problem, its got everyone scratching their heads.

if i don't sell the car i will be putting an ajustable fuel pressure reg

on the car, will see if this makes a difference. I will also be checking

the computer for a chip. :P

i had my vl turbo ones done at mildren race engineering.

they are a bit more expensive than some places (because they charge extra for o-rings or new pintle caps) but they did the best out of the 3 places i've been to.

i had two other sets for my previous cars cleaned at other places (one near city dismantlers and one in lonsdale) and both times after the clean the cars were harder and required more cranking to start, which is apparently an indication of leaking injectors (and the puff of black smoke one of them blew after every startup confirms that).

I went through these guys to flow test, clean and re-flow test some injectors I might put into my FJ20, I requested a before and after so I could see the difference of what the clean did, they also replaced the pintle bits and o-rings and another rubber that sits near the top of the injector in the price, $25 per injector, extra if you need them to take them out of the fuel rail for you.

The only thing that disappointed me was the fact that they couldn't tell me how many cc/min the injectors are good for! Which to me seems a pretty basic thing, they do however give you details on how fast it flows a certain amount of volume, so from that you can work out the approx cc/min of the injectors based on the pressure they feed them at.

It's $20 per injector if you only want them cleaned and flow tested.

Cheers,

it was worth the money for the peace of mind i suppose, turns out they werent badly blocked or anything. the spray pattern is just hand drawn so in my case it didnt show any difference. however the flow rates were all the same after and they did vary a bit before.

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
