Resistor pack doesnt need power from the battery, it drops the voltage from the ECU sees, so its just a matter of wiring the resistors between the injector and the ECU...see wiring diagram for R32 GTS/GTR.

I spliced into the wires just before each injector

The injectors need power from some where if you did it on a gtst the wires already have a power supply and the ecu earths the injectors but on a gtr the resistor pack supplys the power to the injectors and the pack requires power. At the moment I'm just taking it from the battery. Guess I'll keep my g/box for the moment but what clutchs are you guys using?

I take it you are reading off a wiring diagram. You are right. All the ECU does is open/close circuits that allow voltage to flow thru the injectors pulsing them open/closed.

If you look at the GTR resistor pack you will see that it has 7 wires. All you do is wire it in line with the existing line that branches off and feeds all 6 injectors. So the GTR resistor pack had 6 x blue wires , and one white (may have been white/black) So the white black wire of the resistor pack gets connected to the wire that supply voltage to all the injectors.

Then for each injector, you run one of the blue resistor pack wires to them in place where the original wire was.

Even if you made your own resistor pack, the principle is the same. A resistor doesnt need a voltage supply. V=IR (V=voltage, I= current, R= resistance) So by passing a voltage thru the resistor pack you are simply changing the voltage seen by the ECU.

If you connect the resistor directly to your battery that wont do anything, you need to wire it in line between the ECU->injector-> earth (i believe from memory it is earthed thru the ECU earth... if you wire it to the battery, what is switching the injector open/closed. The voltage needs to come from the ECU as it does the switching....but i think you know this already.

Where abouts are you in Melb? Im in Melb at the moment with work...

    • Nope, still smaller rear, put on the 4inch exhaust and picked up power everywhere, ended up just shy of 800rwhp.   Didn't seem to be hitting any walls either, so perhaps could have pushed for more but all maybes and the fish that got away etc etc. 
    • Races cars don't care for VIN either...
    • This could be sold and shipped to the US for many gold pieces. RMS has no say in that. Ask various Western Sydney inhabitants how it works.
    • Ha ha ha, mine loves to spend, all on the dogs (they're our kids, and her spending would likely rival that of some people raising children!) the only benefit is, her spending is tax deductible as she runs a business in the dog industry 😛 The above all means she can spend race car budget quicker than I can. 😛 That and a lot of the things I want are very expensive, and I can be a bit "you want how much for that?!" And at other times overly impulsive. Or I start the w days of research, get to day 1.5 and get really annoyed that no one will advertise actual specifics and it's just marketting BS and I go "well, now I don't want anything to do with that now!" Also I hate paying lots of money for something I can make from $50 in materials. Then I get the shits halfway through making things and wonder why others who just buy parts have more fun... 😛  
    • Their 240Z with the RB26 would be a real nice thing to have in a garage to come out for an occasional weekend cruise It's such a cool thing in so many ways Sadly, we have a blue 240Z shell that I walk past every day, just sitting outside a shed at work, it has been slowly disintegrating and falling apart into the ground for the last few years, the owner cannot be found, and I am unable to "claim it" I've been told by work and the RMS, the rust in the body is excessive though, and it has had most of the salvageable stuff, like panels, trim and switch gear stripped off it over the last year or two, work keeps threatening to put it in one of our metal scrap bins, I wish they did though, as it makes Mark sad walking past it
