R32 GTS-T -- Why use 2 fuel pressure regulators

Why is it Nissan have used 2 fuel pressure regulators on the R32 GTS-T (I'm unsure if they also did it on the R33)

One fuel pressure reg. is at the back of the fuel rail near the firewall. This one receives the fuel and passes it on to the injector rail.

The other is at the front of the fuel rail towards the front of the car that feeds the fuel to the return to tank fuel line.

Is there any reason or benefit from this setup or does it simple help hold fuel pressure in the rail and prevent the fuel pump from working as hard as often??

That's the first time I've ever heard or there being two. I'm not sure where you saw that but I have never seen it. I know that when you add and aftermarket one, you leave that standard one on as a backup device to prevent total loss in case of new reg failure.

I also noticed this when I put my new injectors in.

My back one wasn't even connected, the hose going to it was all split and stuffed, so I replaced it when I put the new injectors in

I wonder if thats why my car an so lean..........................

You'd think a decent mechanic would pic something like that up hey.

When I swapped the injectors, I found 4 vacuum hoses with leaks in them/or not connected

      I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though

      $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.
