Hey all.

I have searched the forum but cant seem to find a definite answer to my questions.

Im gettin a bosch high flow 044 and wonderin if i should be upgrading the regulator or the injectors?

I'm only after about 250 - 300rwkw.

I've been checkin out 2 different sard regulators;

1. Sard regulator 8mm Nipple( apparently suited to my power goal and I dont have to upgrade the injectors??)

or;

2. Sard TYPE-R regulator (apparently suited for higher boost applications and larger injectors??)

Any help is appreciated.

:D

You will struggle to get 250 out of the standard injectors without at least a new rising rate regulator. (and I wouldnt really consider 300)

If you are going to spend the $ requred to build a RELIABLE 300rwkw motor the $1000 (or a bit less) for new injectors will be only a small component.

Check out some of the other threads, but you will need to strenghen the internals (rods and pistons) turbo, intercooler, ECU etc etc. your up for several thousand to do this, then you have a problem of getting traction on a gtst with that much power.

If you want a Fuel Pressure Regulator Sard TYpe R, i have one ..

PM me.!! $190

Forget the regulator and just get bigger injectors. Simple! I'd probably avoid SARD as they are single jet type and not all that ideal for DOHC heads. Nismo/Apex/HKS make quad jet designs which are much better.

They dont hold there fuel pressure.

Or just get a SX.. double the price of SARD but better then ANY fuel pressure regulator in the world.

F1 car's use SX.

Cheers

Ya, a few guys have had problems with the SARD ones on RB25s

Nismo make 740cc only, but if you have a PowerFC there wont be a problem, and they are only an extra $50 or so over Apex/HKS 550cc ones so if someday you wanna go for 300-350 you'll be all set.

You wont need a fuel reg either. Im still using my stock one.

270rwkw - nismo 740cc injectors and no problems.]

cheerss - ash

been doin some more research and am curious if a set of S15 injectors would be more suitable. Apparantly these can fit straight on. How much power are these good for?? Can they handle over 250rwkw??

Also read that I may be better off goin for a gtr fuel pump. How much power are these good for?? can they also handle over 250rwkw?? how much is a good price for a gtr fuel pump??

With these upgrades would it be necassary to upgrade the AFM?? If so, any recommendations??

:)

Hmm, I was going to go for the 700cc Sards, great price from Greenline however this is the first time I have read anything bad..

Could someone explain this Single v quad issue to DOHC's heads?

Is this an *issue* or will it run well... or are we talking go for HKS etc...

Hmm confused now. R32 GTR

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
