hey i got a rb20det just got the ecu chiped and with my injectors apparently i have to run a ballast resistor all i know about the injectors is they came in a hks computer and injector pack they are 550cc and say denso on the side the injector impedance is about 2-3 ohms...and if i use them without the resistor it will fry the ecu?

6.8 ohm 15watt ballast resistor sound right?

also have a custom twinfeed fuel rail will the stock fuel pressure regulator be alrite?

rb20det

-fmic

-pod

-bov

-hks adjustable cam gears

-550cc injectors

- twin 10mm lines from tank (stock fuel line is used as a return)

-gtr fuel pump set up externally

-rb25det turbo high flowed with a vl .60 front cover (built to hold 22psi)

-3.5" dump 3" cat back

-q45 afm

-18psi

aim is 350rwhp but am expecting anywhere from 300rwhp up

its a r32 gts-4 should i run it on the dyno is 4wd or rwd?

also what does it have more hp in? ive had it on the dyno completely stock in rwd and get 175.4 rwhp

cheers vance

I think 10 ohm is more on the money. At least 10 Watt as well.

I don't do hp but have seen a 20 run 260rwkw as a stock short engine. It was backed off for a little longevity.

All the Nissans run with 5.5-6ohm resistor packs as do a lot of other cars that I know of. Honda, Mazda etc.

I picked up a R30 Skyline's resistor pack for next to nothing.

I did a few calcs a while back, from memory it turned out I required some where around 17w resistors.

Good 17w 6 ohm resistors are difficult to get at a reasonable price. A total of 6 worked out to nudge close to $100.

Grab an R30 or 280ZX resistor pack from the local wreckers, much cheaper and the resistors are designed for the purpose. :O

The male plug can be purchased from your local autostore for ~$2.95, the less soldering required the better.

I wouldn't be reving or driving the car if your not running a resistor pack, it WILL cause the injector drivers to fry and worse case catch fire. It 'may' be ok on idle and at low rev's but mid to high rpm and your most definitely asking for trouble.

Be safe, just dont drive it until its sorted.

IF you decide to go separate resistors here's what 'should' be used.

Remember thats in USD.

Attached below is a pic of my R30 resistor pack. Looks the same as the GTR item just with a different plug.

yeah they are out of a toyota and ive got the plugs sorted i really need to get it goin by the weekend so il see if i can get my hands on the r30 resistor pack seems like the way to go thanks heaps for all the help everyone especially cubes

cheers vance

As a rule of thumb if you're using a JECS or Denso injector and have to change the plug then the unit is of a different impedance. The best way to check is to use a multimeter and test the resistance.

hey cubes, have you got a pic of what the resistors look like without the cover on top of it?

i brought a resistor packing thinking it had covered and when it turned up i was missing them, so i want to confirm whats happening

GTS25t injectors are 11.5 ohm

Geoff, am I right to guess that RB20DET (R32) injectors are the same resistance as the R33 RB25 ones? and the only difference being the wey they feed into the engine? Ive never sat them side by side...

cheers

    • Seemed to be good when Jeff owned it but they did a shit job on my car, probably worth a think before spending 10's of thousands of dollars where they might be cutting corners
    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
    • As per title.. has anyone used so far? Keen to hear results, comparisons. In the market for a new mani for my new turbo. Any issues cracking?
