About to place the Order for the RB20. Question, Can the PFC drive low impedance injectors? I know the R32 RB20 is High impedance. I have a set of low impedance 660cc injecotors that I am goin to use. Do I need to add inline resistors to use them? And Thanks for pointing me to the PFC for the RB20 guys.

Whatever happened to the Yanks building tough 10sec untubbed RS Camaros??? We seem to be getting a lot of posts about RB engines...can i guess, RB20 in an S13 (240SX)...all good though!

As for the Apexi Power Fc for the RB20DET, i think you will find that new they are harder to find then other PFcs intended for other RB engines. 2nd hand they are rarer again.

And you are right, the Power Fc requires injectors of the same impedence as factory, so yeh you need high impedence injectors if you are to use the PFc. I have just finished wiring in a resistor pack off a GTR to allow me to use low impedence GTR injectors in my RB20, and was surprised how easy it was to wire up. If only i coudl find a Power Fc for Aus$1,000.

You can run a RWD PFC with low impedance injectors - only need the resitor pack wired in (have got it in my ECR33 - low buck GTR 444cc injectors are used w/std GTR rail). Turns out a hell of a lot cheaper than buying side feed injectors.

roy, you are joking aren't you??? surely brent from nengun can get you one for ~$1000

About 12months ago when i tried him he wasnt able to help me out, perhaps if i dropped him a line every 2-3 months, or tried again he could help me out...i dont know.

For the time being though i dont really need an ECU, and if i do go down the aftermarket path in the future, i now want something that can hold different MAPs with the click of a button... so not really looking for a PFc now.

Oh...and the best place for part numbers is www.meggala.com.au he does a good job of collecting tidbits of info for us Nissan owners, other then that im not really able to help you

      And 90% of the time those people turn out to be wrong anyway. But they still treat themselves as a victim...

      I used the radium thing, makes the whole parallel assembly a lot more compact compared to any other way of doing it

      Racetronix also sells those ethanol content sensor bypass blocks. Adapter, Flex-Fuel E85 Sensor High-Flow Bypass, In-line No Sensor (ADF-FLEX-NS): Adapters - Flex Fuel | Racetronix Ethanol content sensor are originally designed to be on the feed line. These bypass blocks are meant to be ran in the feed line and not return. The continental ethanol content sensors have a 3/8" ID and not 5/16". This is why they are ran on the return line directly in conjunction with a low threshold sampling value VS in the feed with one of these blocks.    Haha we think alike, I used both original feed/return for 8AN feed, and one of the Hicas lines as a 6AN return. I also capped off and left the other Hicas line as a spare.

      R32 gtst speedo out by 10kph

      Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.

      Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
