I am the process of changing my valles springs on my FJ20E as they are not under control at 19psi lol which youd expect from an NA engine running this boost.

After the springs are installed Id like to change to methanol fuel but need your help.

I have 550cc injectors running 98 ron. Since gas vs methanol is 12:1 vs 6:1, does this mean I need 1000cc injectors or even bigger since Im chasing more like 25 psi? What size would you recommend (take into consideration 2L, 25 psi and power Im after written below)?

What fuel pumps are methanol-tolerant and what size would I need to get approx 400-450rwhp? Is the 044 applicable here?

Also do I need special injectors (methanol tolerant) or are all injectors already meth tolerant?

What type of fuel hose should be used for this application?

Anyother help greatly appreciated like where to get the methanol on the gold coast.

This will be mostly a track and drag car but I think I will run two fuel systems so I can run 98 on the street (keeping it legal).

Cheers

using such large injectors(depending on your ecu)might be a bit of a felcher to tune....opening the injector one step might be too rich or going the other way too lean....consider running higher pressure with smaller injectors to over come this as you may find your mixtures to be a little messy at times

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
