rb20 injectors are 14ohms, gtr injectors are 4 ohms hence 10 ohm is needed

I=V/R

12V / 14 ohm approx 10 ohm resistor + injector (4 ohms)

= 0.857A

P=VI

12V X 0.857A

=10.3 Watts

same as everyone else, 10W and 10 Ohm

Thanks for that mate.

How did you guys go about getting the car to run with these injectors? On the first page it sais the car may not run at all, I have a re tune booked but wanted to install these before the tune but if the car wont run with them then its gonna be kind of hard to get the car to the tuner?

edit : also i have a safc 1 installed already so is there something i can do here to make it run well enough to get it to the tuner? im trying to save a bit of cash by doing some things my self but the next tune is just for the bigger fuel pump, i wanted to get the gtr injectors in and maybe even my z32 AFM as i wont have the money to get these done by the tuner on the day.

You will almost certainly have to trailer the car there, if it runs it will be horribly rich and no doubt foul the plugs and stall multiple times, I wouldn't bother trying to drive it. If you change the AFM as well then forget about it, definitely will not run.

This is prob a stupid question, but why can't you just replace the standard injector resistor on the rb20 with the rb26 one?

You can, but most people sell them for $100, so if you can do it yourself for $10 why not?

Also the standard one doesn't use a resistor as they are normal impedance.

Its just that i saw this ebay auction which lead me to believe that the rb20 did have a resistor. Just out of curiosity what actually is this part?

hey mate ive just acquired some 33gtr injectors to go into my rb20 what resisters did you use? as i want to make one as well.

10W 10ohm from Jaycar, cost like $11 for 6 of them

Have since found a better range of boxes to house them at Altronics

As for getting the car to run I have NIStune and a Tuners license so I can get it running well enough to get to the tuners, will be a couple more weeks till I kick it in the guts though (pipes to be welded).

Its a resistor for something else and not to the injectors as it only has 2 wires

    • I've watched some vids and the technique seems to be to butt the sheets up to one another and use MIG to spot weld and slowly fill in the spots until its eventually all sealed. No runs as you would normally do, as there's too much heat generated that way. Yeah my stick welds are terrible these days because its been so long since i've done any of it. I expect to be spending many hours practicing
    • I have personally seen a Tomei USA RB26 cam that didn't even fit the head. Kind of nuts to me that it was even possible for that to happen but such is life.  There's two UP Garages in the US. One is a US branch of the Japanese company which sells things they brought over at tremendous markup. The other is University Place Garage/Fairlady Motors which is a shop best known for putting VCAM in RBs and trying to convince people to stop putting in 800hp of turbo on a 2.5L motor.
    • Gasless MIG is not exactly suited to what I would call "delicate" or "attractive" welding. So I would rule it out for sheet metal rust repair type stuff, unless you're only doing it in hidden places. I'm thinking about getting myself a gasless MIG for "hack together" type work. Noting that my welding experience is very very low, and quite a long time ago. So I'm also looking for "simple", but I'm not expecting "excellent". I'm not even sure that proper MIG is the best for sheet metal work. I get the feeling that the degree of control and the minimisation of heat input that you get from TIG is probably what you really want. And then you have to get good at doing it before the welds won't look like a monkey flinging a handful of shit anyway. You're probably SOL for an easy and cheap way to get from where you are to where you want to be. Much like myself.
    • Any recommendations for what would be the easiest welding type to start on, for sheet metal rust repairs and maybe some exhaust piping too? Seems like MIG is the most common. Would gasless MIG be ok to learn on and do some simple jobs? I have a stick welder which has a Lift TIG setting, but i'm more interested in getting whatever's easiest to do, and most suitable, rather than using what i have.
    • Is the UP Garage in the US of Ayyeee even the real UP Garage?
