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.

    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works! 
    • So, when are you trying the new GR86 or BRZ?
    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......
