2x good call

Don't know steve, I'd only be guessing.

Maybe speak to a few more tuners and go by the majority.

get a tomei FPR cause they look like the stock 1 and fit in the same position un like the other ones that u have 2 attach 2 the engine bay and have 2 run hoses which u may get defected 4

Nismo fpr bolts directly onto the stock fuel rail like the original one and half the price of the Tomei.

Any idea what one would be best? they are both from Sliding Performance

im sure they both are good and both look stock, but why have them sent from interstate when u can buy them here in sa??

by the way there is nothing wrong with your modified plenum, if i can get 300+rwkw from mine which is the same im sure u can aswell

truth is you dont need a FPR til around 350 rwkw... ive seen a few cars making that power, reliably, with the stock nissan reg!!

what you need is bigger injectors, a good pump and a tune :no: Steve: in your case, go get some S15 injectors then tune the PFC and you'll be laughing.

yeah S15 480cc are plug and play

was going to buy a set but decided on deatschwerks, for the price

ordered 450cc (sneaky sneaky lol) they said no stock, how about 550's for same price

lol

now Simon, I dont agree with "what you need is bigger injectors, a good pump and a tune".

it always comes down to budget. if someone cant afford the Minimum $500 for 480cc+ injectors, then a $165 Nismo FPR isnt a bad thing. Using aftermarket ecu or piggybacks, the fpr can be made to work Well with a larger fuel pump, etc.

Ive been happy with each tune Ive paid for since having the FPR. 120awkw original plus fuel pump/fpr/safc went to 140awkw, added stuff retuned to 160awkw tune, then 190rwkw tune x 2

next tune stock FPR will go back on, as I'll have the injectors and the Pfc. so it wont be needed.

but yeah I argue those who say FPRs are shit. they have their place IMO.

bill @ ATS told me stock inj. on a R33 are good for 230kw dont know if RB20 are the same cc im guessing possibly not

hey just got my car tuned yesterday i hav a s1 r33 gtst: ase FMIC, HKS 3.5" cat back, 500hp walbro fp, and pod. running 11 psi and i made 221.1rwkw. No remap or nothing, guys at turbo tune were suprised considering the mods and so was i :)

i have proven that you can make good power with FPR and pump.... mine made 283 rwkw on STOCK INJECTORS with a malpassi rising rate. even now in its current trim it makes 265 rwkw, still stock injectors and less boost to keep it reliable.

that said tho.. more pressure in the rail puts more strain on various parts, such as the pump, o rings, injectors themselves etc... the risk of failure is higher.

So ive decided to upgrade my injectors and back the fuel pressure off a bit. and aim to make the same power (adding cams to but thats a different story)

Did you check your injector cycle under load? Were they maxing out? Once you go past 80% injector cycle, it's usually time for an upgrade. At 283kw with STD injectors I reckon you must have been coming close.

Thats a risk Im willing to take with the 31, as it'll be driven mostly on the track. (only take it out on the street rarely)

I dont want to spend any more cash on it anyways :thumbsup: I just want to drive the f**ker.

yeah they were pretty close to 100% tho not quite hitting it... I certainly didnt want to run this much boost and on maxed out injectors.. so we wound the boost down and retuned for 265 rwkw... still heaps of head room with the injectors.

however the rail pressure is higher, i'm going to chuck a set of S15 injectors in there and then still run the FPR but only have the railpressure slightly more then stock.

Yeah I'm still at the experimental stage with fuel pressure so not sure how much I should be running in the SARD rail yet.

My setup as of this week will be

660 sard injectors

gt2871r 56T

Power fc

bosch 040

z32 afm

at the moment getting a very responsive 200.1rwkw on 8psi with no tune afr's are 10:1 across the board. Hoping for a responsive 240-250ish on 17psi with a fat torquey midrange.

i heard years ago FPR's can create an uneven spray from the injectors, can you shed some light simon?

i call BS on the un even spray... irs more or less due to the fact that a FPR change means that you have to retune it, cause the FPR is spraying more fuel in per given time on the injector... so the injector timing needs to be brought back.

    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.        
    • Sharing results from recent Liberty Walk R35 GTR, since they are still considered as somesort of a V36 Skyline. We do them turbos too. This are high flowed SS-1 models with ball bearing conversion done.  Car have managed to pull 485awkws @ 20Psi so far pushing limitations of factory built engine. The build list for R35 GTR enthusiasts as follow : HyperGear high flowed stock turbos in SS1 (G25-660 specs) Custom titanium intake pipes. Vspec performance titanium front pipes. Vspec performance 4" titanium exhaust. Upgrade fuel pumps. 1200cc injectors. Ignition coilpacks Hks intake plenum. Hks intercooler piping. Greddy intercooler. Greddy bovs. Top-secret coolant reservoir. Emtron ecu. Straight E85. Built gear box.  
    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
