I got mine done at;

Expert Injector Clean

3/56 Smith road

Springvale, vic

Cleaned, new seals, flow tested. $30 each injector. 6 injectors = $198 incl gst

Wow bit much. Got mine cleaned and flow tested with seals fir $20 each.

Nah haven't...I get my shit done at Petroject...who are now Logicar...standard sort of price ~$35 inc. GST for reconditioning and flow testing.

Note that there is a difference between simply cleaning injectors (some mechanical workshops will just run injector cleaner through them or ultrasonically clean) and reconditioning them with new seals/filters/O-rings.

Resurrecting an old thread just in case anyone else is googling the same.

I just had a set of injectors flow tested by Injectorsonline in Springvale VIC, good quick service at the right price, recommended. Worked great by post, too.

I got a quote from someone else at almost $40 each to test and service, which doesn't really make sense with a second hand set...

It does if you're buying top shelf injectors - basically renders the injectors new, all things equal.

Did injectorsonline replace o rings, filters and end caps?

Injectors online is same as expert Injector clean isn't it.....same address.

also here's a

Tip for fresh players...only ask for an injector test...as its only about 8$ each and quite often they don't need cleaning...I mean I had 6 tested and only one needed to be cleaned...all up cost me about 60$..If you ask them to clean them all they will whether they need it or not.and charge accordingly...I mean why pay to clean injectors that aren't dirty...

Spot on Artz, I was after just a flow test, not cleaning. I'm sure the price would have been different for a full clean.

Birds, I got them to visually inspect the supplied o-rings, all good.

If you're putting new injectors in, I'd be replacing the o-rings since they cheap as chips and even ones which look good could be on the verge of breaking down...

The time/effort involved to replace them once they're in the car is too much :P

As Simon said...O rings are like timing belts...they can look as good after 10km as they do 100,000. Considering they are like 50 cents each, it's worth doing for the peace of mind IMO. Hopefully you don't have any issues.

Always rmemeber too people, if you're installing your own injectors, put a rubber safe lubricant like Vaseline on the O rings so they seat properly in the rail and manifold.

you have plenty of vaseline laying around birds? :touch:

I didn't think Vaso was safe to use on rubberz... KY's the go. :P

Considering that the clean and test is half the price of new injectors in some cases, I know which way I would be going... Xspurt 1000's please. :)

    • Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.
    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.
