Covered a million times on here before and i have done a search as well..

But basically my new r33 gtr skyline's injectors are leaking from around 3 of them, 2 being at the top of the injector and the other from the bottem..

One of the ones that leaks from the top (nearest to front of engine) just pours out constantly..

Whats the best solution to curing this? car is stock with stock injectors.

Should i just take it to an injector specialist in bunbury (although i dont any) can anyone reccomend anyone? so they can clean and put new seals on (hoping that they are not cracked) and clean them...

Or should i just buy later injectors off a r34 gtr???

GTR injectors will always leak eventually. If you bought new ones, take them back for a refund. If you bought second hand ones, then buyer beware. If you buy another set of GTR injectors, they will ALSO leak eventually. They all do, there is no way to fix them.

Before ditching them, though, check the top and bottom seals to be sure it is the injectors fault. Usually they leak from the small holes near the top on the side when the car is running. They will not leak when the car is not running.

They would leak when engine is off due to fuel pressure left in the pressure side of the fuel system.

Once the pressure has escaped it should stop. If it's definately not the orings and it is the injectors, might be a good time to get some new injectors (bigger) and a tune to suit?

If you turn the key to the on position and you start getting leaks, then try replacing the o-rings first. Replace both top and bottom. You can get these from any injector cleaning place or mobile guy or from Nissan at approx $1 each I think (I don't know exact price as I buy them in bags of 200)

If the injectors leak from the small holes on the side near the top, then they are fubar and you will need to buy new ones.

For a basic street car, just get some siemens ~500cc and a Nistune or something equivalent. If you are after something more serious, talk to your tuner or mechanic more about the size they recommend and the brand they recommend.

Just turned the key to the on position (without the engine running) and straight away fuel on 3 of the injectors started to leak fom the top down does this mean it will be the o rings then?

If its right at the top near the rail then yeah, probably o-rings. If you're not sure, just change them anyway because they're cheap and its an easy job. Search the DIY - i did a write up. Interestingly, i had to remove my rail recently and just pulling it out and reinstalling it was enough to kill 2 orings FFFUUUUU.... Probably should have pulled all the injectors out of the rail and re-lubed them.

Well today my injectors coem from america..

Anyway used the guide on here to fit em all is well on idle..

As soon as i just drive normally it has a miss like its trying or should i say nearly running on 5 cylinders, put your foot down and that goes away although on full boost boost it does leave a cloud of black smoke which it didnt used to do...

Anyway my question is does this mean one or more of the new to me std gtr injectors aint flowing enough??

Should i just take em all of again and get em flo tested or could this be somat else?

Note it didnt miss like this when the old leaking injectors were in...

What boost are you running? Are the replacement injectors new or used?

Black smoke = rich mixture, which you'd expect on a stock ECU, especially if you've raised the boost.

I also think so.

Just tried this out then and i can hear a leak coming from the first injector, I cant really tell weather it's coming from the top or bottom though.

I cant visually see or smell fuel but just a leaking air sound?

      SAUNSW - World Time Attack Challenge - 5 & 6 September

      By Keeper · Posted

      Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!

      Not in any way aroused by any of those, except maybe the big AMGs. And that would break my never a Euro, ever, rule.
