is it worth it?

Probably no, GTR injectors (444cc) are the better choice ($200-$300 for a set), they are top feed and just bolt straight in, and just require a resistor pack because they are low impedance

No it is not worth it. When you highflow an injector, most of the time the spray pattern goes to shit and it can mean death for your engine....especially when you start pushing the hp.

It's an extremely stupid idea and the cost of new injectors is not that bad. What's the cost of a new engine?

And I don't think RB20 injectors are able to be highflowed anyway.

rb20 injectors cant be done properly, we get CREATD to do ours (R33) spray pattern is the same as stock so there is no issues there. Of course highlflows have there place, but not in all.

Got any more detailed info of that Trent? (r33 items?).

Not saying i don't believe you, but have you got any spray pattern photo's under various pressure's from base, +10 & +20?

Not that i would use them, just for everyone else to see a bit more indepth information to help with decisions :action-smiley-069:

i'm pretty sure if you wanted to buy some (speaking to prospective customers) CREATD would show you in real time in the test machine like they did for me, i was 100% against highflows until i saw their work...

There are time and places high flows should not be used i and i whole heartedly agree but for guys on a tight budget where 250-270rwkw is the target on a highflow or chinese turbo i cant see a problem, unless the person selling them is pushing them as "the only" solution.

To me running the best brand injectors then using a cheap ecu to control them defeats the purpose, in fact using a decent ecu with highflow injectors yeilds better results.

I suppose what im saying is that everything is relative. Relative to budget, application and execution.

Its too easy to get hung up on the one particular thing, when really the whole setup should be considered more important.

Well ye real time - but not everyone is in the Northern burbs of Melbourne :action-smiley-069:

Would help to dispel a bit of conjecture on the topic.

Perhaps if someone uses CREATD they could get some further pictoral information to add to a "high-flow injectors 101" style of thread about the topic?

Just gets other users from interstate/overseas some useful information to their decision in the overall scheme of their setup/budget.

Try it and see how you go.

Don't point the finger when your engine goes bang.

We test, flow and clean injectors every day, injectors are made to a tolerant, there designed for there intended purpose not to be modified.

When you drill and change the design of the injector the pin-til end can get damaged which will upset your spray pattern = fuel mixture into cylinder.

We have seen a lot of "hi-flowed" injectors that when RETESTED fail.....

yep and ive seen lots of brand new siemens injectors perform terribly.... as i've said everything is relative.

ive been running hi flowed injectors done by my mate for 2yrs now, just shaved and recapped rb25 injectors 350rwhp 20psi and 60,000kms later 9ltrs/100km on highway.. never had a drama..one thing tuner said figures change slighty on idle cause the spray pattern is never the same.. but u get that who cares :D

lol, then why do yo need to highflow the injectors?

Oblivion makes 351 hp at the wheels on stockos. Plenty left in them too.

      Please do not connect it to your manifold. If you do, as GTS suggested please record the lot in 4K with good mics attached.   On the factory Skyline, there's a upside down pipe that allows it to breathe, looks like this

      🚨 Need Advice! Overcharged for Engineering Report 🚨

      By Shoota_77 · Posted

      For me I'd need some serious justification for why it has blown out.  Have you questioned him on it?  To be honest if you didn't question him right from the get-go on the first invoice that was already way over the initial quote and then you've (presumably) then paid another $1375 on top of the first invoice, then you're pushing shit uphill to get a favourable result now... It was years ago I last got an engineer out but it was around $450-$550 per visit.  That was just to inspect each progress point he gave me for the project.  Is he just doing progress inspections or is he providing engineering diagrams, technical assistance, etc??  If he's not, he's a filthy rip off merchant.  If the $3100 is the final sign off then you need to cop it on the chin, pay it and move on.  If it's not, piss him off and get a new one.  Not many Jeeps I'd value at $10K full stop let alone just engineering fees on a written off, half actual value WOVR Jeep....

      Oh, yes. If you connected it to the manifold your first drive would be very eventful. Very shit. Very interesting. Perhaps take a video if you feel the need to see. Terminating the breather at the top of the bellhousing is normal/stock. Some gearbox lubes (hello Redline Shockproof) like to foam up a bit and require the breather to be extended up higher, so you don't get spots of smurf jizz staining the floor under your car. Mine is thus right up behind the head. Make sure you fit a u-bend at the top so it points back downward so that dirt and schmutz has a harder time getting into it.

      V36 2008 Coupe Wiring Differences with Android Screen

      By Duncan · Posted

      It doesn't really answer your question...but is the head unit full android or just android auto, are you happy with how quickly it boots and responds, and do you have a link?  If we can identify good Android alternatives it will really help people stuck with Japanese screens. Did it have a separate reverse camera input so you would replace the factory one, or are you just going without now...that would be a pretty big steps back. And finally, do you have a picture of the "wire" that you can't plug in? Most likely it is some sort of aerial that is not too important eg japanese traffic or am radio or something if you haven't noticed a functionality issue
