Rebuilding my motor and wanting to up the power to high 200rwkw. I am looking at getting some bigger injectors but i was wondering what these would do to my fuel economy as my car is a daily driver.

Questions are;

What i really want to know is it posible to have 280odd rwkw and still get any where near the 500km out of a tank that i get on long trips and 420 odd around town.

What size injectors?

I am also not sure of what turbo to run i was thinking about the GT30 just not sure how laggy these are ?

Is it possible to have these sort of figures and have something that has a bit of grunt down low cause i dont want to be waiting till 4500rpm till it comes on boost.

And last but not least are these cheap IC that just jap is selling able to flow these figures that i want .

If anyone is able to help with any of these questions or ideas that can get me to 280- 300 rwkws it would be great. :confused:

pwer only comes from the fuel you burn, so more power = more fuel consumption.

the bigger injectors by themselves would not change your economy, everything else unchanged, they would just be open for a shorter time and let the same amount of fuel through. However, your economy is greatly controlled by your right foot, go easy on the accelerator, and it'll be heaps cheaper to run....

280-300rwkw hey... that's plenty of power.. you mite need to consider going tuff internals like forged pistons and other things.

but yeah.. more powa more fuel.. your engine will always go thirsty after every grunt of powa.

750cc is recomended for 300rwkw.. and 044 fuel pump . aftermarket computer and alot of other things but most importantly.. DOH-- alot of DOH involve.

good luck.

    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat 
    • I saw your intro update, are you sure you've actually had a starter motor failure? You mention it could be the alarm causing it. I'm assuming you've got a no start issue, but what are the exact symptoms, as there could be a few reasons it has stopped wanting to start.
