hi all ,I baught these of a fellow well known sau member as Nismo 740cc for Rb25..

took my car to the tuners yesterday and even at 100% duty cycle the car was leaning out bad,

in fact on initial start up instead of running rich the a/f ratio went right to 18:+,

eventually at around 11pm we had had enough of trying to work out what was going on(had osc scope to get verification of inj duty)

today removed the injectors and tuner said he is certain they are not 740cc,but closer to 270,(are these na silvia jobs ?)

he was refering to the fact that they spray holes were smaller than the std 370 injector spray holes..

the numbers on the injectors are side:a46-00 other side:0f554922 have a jecs filter on them.but no jecs moulded in the plastic..

i want to confirm what they are b4 i approach the guy i got them from ...cheers..

You don't say what ecu you have and whether it is set up for the different injectors. The 554 is Nismo code for 740cc. Maybe you have not got enough fuel supply and they are running at 100% duty cycle to try to compensate. But I'm no tuner.

hey ,thanks for the reply,my setup is :

Hks 2835 pro s

some huge bosch pump,tuner says its flows more than an 044 sorry dont have more info on on it..but he regularly uses this pump..

z32 ecu with type 2 nistune,

ebay spec fmic,

but i`m quite relieved that they are the 740 `s..

ok i removed the fuel rail and found that the new o rings (small ones) are squashed and in some cases split,

also the lil green spacer thing after the oring is squashed,the guy i had flow test them supplied new orings and pintle caps,

the caps were not the 4 pronged ones normally on these and told me i had to trim them flush with the end of the injectors,

when fitting them we they were hard to push in and didnt feel "right" to me,cap looked like then ends had been chewed off!

was told to just use the metal covers and pull them down buy doing them up this way.slowly and evenly..

there was no signs of leaking (we did check for them more than once)but surely this couldnt have been helping matters ?

You had them flow tested? What were the results?

yeah took them to a local repco workshop and they only tested for spray pattern..

they said they couldnt give me a cc report with the bench they had.

so my next step will be to send one off to someone that can test them properly.

After informing this fellow of the results he was adamant that they are 740cc,no surprise there i guess,

so wanting to give him the benefit of the very small virtually non existant doubt, i went back to the efi place and got them to do a side by side comparison,

to my disappointment it only backed everything we already have done to verify that they are in fact around 270cc,

the result was the factory 370cc injector flowed more than the red tops in question,

calculation from this result showed that the red top inj only flowed 260cc,which is spot on for a sr20de injector,

http://nissans15.com/spec.htm

there is also a video of todays comparison test and full details of the process from tuning to the test today posted by my tuner:

i am reluctant to post the link publicly on here atm as it names the person in question,he has fallen silent since i informed him of the second test today,

but I still want to give him a chance to rectify the situation first.

prior to falling silent he was saying he purchased these new and could not have sent me the wrong ones,as these were the only side feed inj he had,

so its tough and i dont like haveing to do this.what choice do i have,

I believe the evidence is clear that i have been ripped off either intentionally or by mistake,

either way I should be refunded my money on the price of the original purchase at the very least.

the video will be removed if he decides to do the right thing by me here.

if by chance anyone would like to see my tuners post on this matter pm me and i will provide the link,

i would appreciate any informed opinion on this matter.

end rant.

yeah it certainly seems that way,the funny thing is though he always peddals stuff on here,

and lots of it,so its really caught me by surprise.

and yes the duty cycle is off the charts,100% +,

we knew something was up at first start up with these inj as the the injector scaler had to be upped instead of lowered,

just to get the car to idle without being very lean.

like 18:1 lean,crazy.even with the std ecu instead of flooding the engine with fuel it was really lean.

    • After 23 years of owning a Skyline, finally had the latch go.  Followed this guide,  works like a dream again. Great Guide 👍
    • Hi all,   I’ve got the biggest lot of problems with my R33 GTS-T   It was a freshly rebuilt 25th anniversary RB25DET (plastic cas, neo cams) probably 6 years ago now   The engine was running so well but I fkd up badly and trusted someone I’d known for 10 years that was well known around Plazmaman for his welding and fab work. I added a lovely photo of some of his previous work. Not sure why my car was worked on by whoever did this shit     I’m normally someone who would never open myself up to something like this, I still can’t believe I did it. Trusting him literally fkd it all up for me. Everything has been a struggle, like it’s almost been 6 years that’s how much I’ve just on and off been trying to work it all out.    All I wanted was a car that danced down low, like full boost from around 3~3500rpm to redline, don’t really care what power it puts down (if it ever does) but I just wanted it to be quick to get on it.    He recommended the turbo to get, I picked Hypergear but he told me to get the front 4” with a T4 and 0.68 rear housing.    I was expecting all these beautiful welds, tidy fab work and paid for it to be ready to go to a tuner when I got it back.    I got a car back that was an absolute mess, I actually couldn’t believe it was my car anymore. I don’t think you could even call what he did welds, they’re disgusting.    So I stripped everything he touched off it and with every bolt I loosened it just got worse and worse.    I covered it and literally built and finished another car in the meantime but now it’s getting to the point where I really want my Skyline back.   Its a struggle because I paid him to do all this shit because I didn’t know how to and now I’ve had to try and figure it all out omg    Please excuse the bird shit horrible welds, I’ve got my show pony car and am so beyond dealing with this car I don’t even really care at this point.    If someone told me about what he did to my car I wouldn’t have believed them but it happened to me. It was unbelievable. He went missing, my car went missing, it came back missing parts, the straight af chassis rails bore the scars of being dragged up a trailer backwards, even the sandwich plate was bent. Everything was leaking and open to whatever fell into it, rounded off/ missing bolts, power steering oil and coolant everywhere, no gaskets, parts stolen off it, even managed to damage the sump pan.   Promised me he’d finish the car, knew what it meant to me, I paid him thousands and thousands just for him to trash it. He told me he was fully licensed and insured, come to find out he’d cancelled his ABN, so obviously no insurance. I had laid up insurance on the car and would’ve been covered but I was scared they would’ve written it off or because the business was no longer trading I’d still be liable.    He was supposed to:  New fully custom mild steam pipe exhaust manifold with turbo location moved from factory position to high forward mount. (I don’t know if it is a mild steam pipe, I’ve got a funny feeling the waste gate isn’t in a very good position and I don’t think the outlets off each cylinder are equal) 4” custom stainless steel dump with external gate (he re-plumbed it) Cut and shut OEM intake manifold with throttle reposition (I ended up doing the throttle reposition) Box in pod filter (left out) New 100cel catalytic converter (pretty sure it’s there but unsure if it’s 100cel) Front mount intercooler piping fabricated to suit (all smashed up and rusty holes where he was supposed to make it look standard where fmic piping passes through. I don’t even think my front bar is going to fit 🙄) Custom 5” intake pipe from pod to turbo (didn’t come with it so had to do something to make it work with the Z32 afm)   Engine: Full cylinder head service & machining  Brand new valves Precision upgraded spring kit Engine block honed New bearings  New piston rings  New ARP conrod bolt kit New ARP head studs Cometic head gasket VRS kit   ATR43SS2 ball bearing turbo 0.68 rear housing  Turbosmart 45mm external wastegate (got delivered to the fab bloke, I’ve got no idea what spring is in it, I’m assuming the one that came pre installed) Walbro 260 fuel pump  Nismo 740cc injectors (tested to 880) Spitfire coil packs GCG FMIC RB25DET manual 5 speed 4:11 rear diff   I’ve got an Apexi Power FC in it atm, I was hoping to just get it to operating temp to make sure everything was okay before towing to a tuner but it’s over-fuelling too much. I don’t think that’s going to happen so i think I’m going to get either a Link G4 or Haltech for it. What do you guys recommend? I can’t work out the power FC so just gonna give up on that one     It’s got an exhaust leak coming from somewhere I can’t see 🙄    The fuel pressure was steady but now it like drops from 40 to 20psi randomly (noticed this yesterday)    I’ll attach pics of the shit he put on my car and the engine bay now as it sits    I really just need some help, I need a tuner in Sydney I can trust, I’d like to be with the car while it’s being tuned if possible, I know it looks terrible but unfortunately I’ve just got to put up with it for now and fix the cosmetic stuff later   Do you guys think the manifolds are going to be okay? Or do I throw the exhaust manifold and try again?   I don’t even think these combinations are going to work tbh   I know everything I fitted was rated to be able to take at least 400kW but most rated higher    If you’ve gotten this far I really really appreciate it 🙏 I don’t mind if you trash me or the car, I made a rookie error and f**k I’ve paid for it. As you’ll see 🙄  
    • From everything I’ve heard you’ll be waiting a long time for  the parts to arrive 
    • Have you looked at the workshop manual?
    • Hmm. I've gotten pretty good outcomes from talking to them about things that I've had go wrong or ideas for improvement. Have had a lot to say about the R32 FUCAs, and they have sent out some replacement parts for those, gratis, on a couple of occasions. Mind you, I have bought a couple hundreds of $ of replacement rod ends for them too!
