Can someone please let me know if this has been installed right?

Is it ok to have that second fuel pressure regulator without a vacuum hose to it?

regulatorInstall.jpg

The lowest pressure I can get it down to is about 48psi. I also had a Walbro fuel pump installed.

I'm also still having fueling issues. Up high I can only get the AFR's to be around 12:1 -> 12.7:1, and I'm only running 11psi!!!

My mods include: FMIC, full 3" exhaust from turbo back, high flow cat, pod in cold air box, greddy profec B spec 2, and power fc.

Do I need new injectors? I don't think it should be running that lean!!! :(

from the pic its right!!!!!!!!!!

put in a gauge on the side of the fuel regulator turn up to about 55psi ..or abit higher...this may help....if still haveing prob them get injector...

you may need ur power fc retune if u go higher psi...wat duty cycle r u running??is the duty c/c very high???...........wat power r u running???

Looks likes its done right. Does it have a base psi?

I'd say it probably wouldnt be able to go below "xx" or whatever.

Personally from what ive expirianced with my car

sell the regulator. Use the stock item, nothing wrong with them.

Get rid of the walbro also and get a Bosch item.

Use injectors in conjunction with the stock reg and decent pump and you wont have one iota of issue.

UPDATE:

The fpr wasn't installed correctly. There is now a t-piece to join the vacuum line with the yellow arrow to the bit in the yellow circle as well.

The fpr wasn't doing it's job and because this wasn't installed properly the car was leaning out in the top end with only 11psi and close to 100% duty cycle on the injectors.

Ben from UAS diagnosed the problem and fixed it right up. Also retuned... Results of that will be in a different thread.

    • Yeah - My key still does the chime thing. I followed the procedure but it didn't activate on the (identical) third set of keyfob that I had. I vaguely remember the alarm saying you can only pair two keys with it. Now that I've dug it up, it appears that you very much can pair keyfobs to the alarm system. (which are the fobs I use to unlock the car). I have successfully diverted the thread and can probably not use the OEM keyfob ever again unless I use the aftermarket alarm and attempt to pair the OEM keyfob to it. Which might just work, or not :D. I definitely used the nissan method and not the aftermarket alarm method.
    • What makes it worse is that Nissan made keys in the same style, for example R34 and Stagea, but they work at different frequencies or something like that. So they look the same but the remotes are not interchangeable. I learned that from some guy selling aftermarket blank keys.
    • Does your door chime work when you have the key in the lock and open the door? I've had that disabled because it's f**king annoying and it is one thing that messes with the pairing. Because now the car doesn't detect key in ignition anymore and the slide-key-in-and-out sequence does not trigger the pairing mode anymore. The service manual has a section on the various bits involved in doing the syncing. I presume it'll be similar between Stagea and R34.
    • Agree, but meh, I think is is based more on LOLS than actually apples to apples, like, who would have thunk a turbo 4 cylinder would not beat a NA 4 cylinder  I think with just basic N/A mods, like a exhaust and tune, it would be equal to the Mini in its current form, maybe I know my current 2.5 would "chop the mini" as the midrange now has a night and day difference in power delivery compared to the tuned 2.0, by around 20kwatw and 30nm from around 2k rpm "ish"....... I'm kinda hoping that they do a N/A build, either with the MZR 2.0 or with whatever they decide to use If I recall correctly they did talk about K swapping one a while ago
    • Can't see that being a thing.
