It would only be worth doing (and i can sell you my 40,000km old injectors within the month once i go FI) if:

You get a piggy back and get a tune

if you stock injectors are smaller than our 288cc ones or 330cc (cant remember exactly)

if you have other mods (plenum spacer, pod, exhaust etc) that are increasing the air into engine and thus your engine needing more fuel (u will need a dyno to see how rich you are..)

Ahk awesome these are the things i need to know (im not overly knowledgeable) i do have a big pod filter on it but i don't know how much more air that would be giving her. Maybe I should do a dyno for a starting point?

Isn't your car a VQ30DD which means direct injection?

VQ35de injectors wont fit, they sit in the intake manifold - not the combustion chamber.

A Performance workshop you seek- and expect to pay a reasonable amount of money for small gains

Things like Intake/exhaust is where you should look.

^ what he said. The 300gt injectors are totally different to 350gt injectors, as the vq30dd is direct injected. The vq35de is not.

that said, there is no performance benefit at all with fitting larger injectors. In fact it will be detrimental. The only time you would need higher capacity injectors is if your current injectors can't supply enough fuel due to other mods, like turbo/supercharging.

a good quality aftermarket ecu with a custom tune will give some gains. But it is one of the poorest 'bang for you buck' performance mods, especially if you have no other mods. You would be best off starting with intake and exhaust. After you get your injectors sorted.

cool cool. i have a 2.5 inch exhaust and a larger air intake on her, probably just gonna get the injectors cleaned out by the workshop were i get my services etc and maybe run a dyno to see where i stand, would a higher flow cat give me a little more bang and as far as im aware they are not overly expensive

    • I'm firmly on the "zero compliance is good compliance" for FUCAs. I'd be looking to solid metal joints even if the primary reason for having them is because they facilitate the twist in the arm. I have never been more happy with the way the front suspension behaves than I have since I got rid of the FUCA bushes. Even the thin little (short lived) poly bushes in the Whiteline adjustables have too much compliance for my liking. It probably won't be long before I have sphericals nearly everywhere, probably including both top and bottom arms in the rear, and I'll start complaining about the increased costs for dental work. But I will be enjoying the driving more, I'm sure.
    • Plus, you'll get great experience in bedding in pads!
    • I have offset Nismo brackets so the fact the gktechs can pivot is less important to me. I have 170mm JIC arms with bushings - but they provide no adjustment and I'm not sure whiteline eccentric bushings will fit them (I don't want to ruin the bushings currently in them to find out). Ideally I want something with bushings + adjustment; hence why I'd like to find a pair of these. Unfortunately they aren't easy to find.
    • @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal!
