as topic suggests, just have a few questions regarding the install of my 80lb siemens injectors.

1) first of all if you look at pics "install" and "install1"... is this how it is meant to be installed???

2) second of all the seals or o-rings... the set came with metal ones with a small rubber ring. when i replace the existing rubber ones with them there seems to be just metal to metal contact and no a tight fit/seal, also the when i use the metal ones provided the bolt the is meant to be used to reinforce the rail and injectors is not long enough as the injector stick out more. please refer to pics "seals" and "seals1"

can someone confirm that it is ok to use the existing rubber ones as the injector fit fine into them and they seem to seal everything much better, also the injector are able to go further in and the rail can be bolted down.

3) third.. if you look at pic "Fuel rail" there are holes on either side and one on top in the middle. am i correct to assume the the one on top is the inlet for fuel and i block off one of the side ones and use other for the fpr, or do i block of the top and use the sides as inlet and for fpr OR does is not matter how i go about it.

thanks in advance for your help

the injector bosses that go into the manifold should have o rings. the injectors should have o rings to. was it from "clean injection" off ebay? i got that kit. ps. you need to use a good sealing washer on the -6 fittings in the rail, as mine leaked.

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.

      Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
