Sorry to dig up an old thread but it's all relevant :( I'm after the same set of plugs, but I can't seem to find any. I tried Coventry's on someone else's advice but they don't have any. I also tried ringing a couple of Mazda wreckers but they had none either.

Does anyone know where I can get them from in Sydney and roughly how much I should be paying? I'll try a few more wreckers in the meantime.

Edit: I'm going to try Findapart.com.au and see what happens.

Around $80 each is around average I guess. $100 isn't too bad. $50 is the "buy it now" price.

Update on my situation: I found a Commodore wrecker that has some plugs (for $5 each) but I didn't have time to get around there today. Maybe next week.

So they're not the same as Commodore plugs? Where do you get the "2 female pins" from? When I had a look a few days ago it seemed the pins on my clip are already approximately the right size and shape, just the clip was stopping them going on. So if I just remove the old clip and push the pins in, then silicon it up, that should work?

I did mine with pins I bought from Mitre10. I am not sure if the plugs are the same as Commondore ones. Use another set of wires approximately 3" long. Connect it to the new female pins. Test the resistance between the new terminals. If ok, squeeze silicon inside the injector socket and wait for it to dry completely. Connect the 3" long wire to the standard injector loom. You can choose to remove the old injectors plug or hide it somewhere. Preferrably water prove it in a tiny plastic bag. It is important to test the connectivity or it will be too messy to clear those silicon out of the way! Good luck

Unfortunately the places im sure will have some are on holidays till the 6th so i may have to wait unless i can find some.

I doubt they are the same as RB25. I have seen those rx7 series 5 injectors. High impedance and top feed. If SR20 uses the same plugs as RB25 then they are not the same. The plug shape is slightly the same as the SARD 550cc injectors (oval). The 2 side grooves for the plug to slide in is slightly off tho.

Damn, I got off work early today and I forgot to go to the Commodore wrecker to see if they fit. I'll try to remember to go this weekend. My injectors look virtually the same as sil21jun's (but from that angle it's hard to tell if they're exactly the same).

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.

      Looking for someone with a R34 front bar

      Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
