Hi guys!!

Just wondering if anyone out there could tell me exactly how to replace my injectors. I'm putting standard ones back in. My car is running like crap an was told they need to be replaced. I am female and do not know a lot so any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you. :)

Unplug the wiring and then unbolt the fuel rial and remove the fuel lines and pull them out. A bit of fuel will spill out when disconnected. They just sit there held in by the fuel rail. You might have to remove the manifold if it is in the way. You will need to get the same size that is in there all ready. If you have aftermarket ones and you put stock ones back in without a tune it will run even more crap. Make sure the plugs for the wiring is the same. If they are aftermarket they could of been cut and modified.

It's not a hard job but if you don't know much about engines I would give it to someone to fix.

The old VL injectors had rubber hose on the feed, not sure about the R31 injectors but the VL ones looked like a pain to change without the common fuel rail.

It's not something you want to get wrong...

      $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.

      Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.

      I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.

      I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.

      Silly question, as I bet you've checked already, but the motor turns over by hand yes? I suspect Neil has a spare starter, though if not, I believe I have a spare R33 (or two) starter.
