I just pulled my injectors out of my RB20DET cos a couple had leaky O-rings. Now i've notived that underneath the o-ring there's another rubber seal looking thingy (see picture). I'm wondering if these need to be replaced as well as a couple of them seem pretty shagged.

Cheers guys, Simon.

You wouldnt have had this problem if you practiced safe sex with your injectors :yes:

PSYMON having FRESHLY gone through this... i suggest the following

take your injectors to an injector specialist, get them cleaned up and reconditioned, this shouldn't cost too much, around about the $100 mark for all 6

this is a must while you've got them out, think how freaking old they are, think of all the mineral deposits and other shit going through them, you owe it to your injectors to service them while they're out of the car

and yes, those shagged rings are shagged, no two ways about it, best to get it done while they're out, save you having to take em out again

but the final most IMPORTANT THING

ALWAYS GET YOUR O RINGS FROM A NISSAN DEALER OR A WORKSHOP THAT GUARANTEES GENUINE NISSAN PARTS

aftermarket DO NOT FIT and petrol will be pissing out all over your inlet manifold... DO NOT use a/m parts for this.

it's worth it dude... i paid $30 when i swapped my injectors over for the lower O rings the complete set must be worth $70

think about what they do though man, understand that they stop fuel leaking all over your inlet manifold and thus blowing your car up

REMEMEBER THIS THOUGH

infact just to make sure, check your PM

    • 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
