just put a hks 2535 in my rb25det and im bout to get in tuned with a power fc.

haven't hot the cash atm to put bigger injectors in so im going the band-aid solution-fuel pressure regulator.

Do i need to buy a malpassi or a sard fpr or could i get away with a lesser brand fpr like a velocity or monza???

The sard and malpassi cost 3 times as much, are they worth it???

I was just going to post somethin bout fuel pressure regulators... that was..

Should i go the Sard ver the Nizmo bolt on item ? I have the extra fitting on the fuel rail i have on my car allready with a stock fuel pressure reg (rigged up the FPR with the fitting)

Is the Nizmo item any good ? would it do the same job as the Sard ? or should i just go with the Sard ??

And as for you reflex, you should stick with quality when looking at fuel pressure regulators. Do NOT buy crap. get a sard or a nizmo or a SX or get bigger injectors.

So anyone know what i should get ???

the nismo one is just as good its prob better as you dont need any extra fittings and doesnt not need to be mounted off the fuel rail like the sard reg. I bought a sard regulator and the fittings, they are a well known brand for fuel systems, and you should never take the cheaper way out with your fuel system. If your fuel system dies your engine is gone!

just looked at the nengun website and the nismo fpr is $156 delivered.

its a complete replacable unit for the stock fpr.

this is its description:

Replaces the factory fuel regulator and will allow adjustment of the fuel pressure to 10Ka/L/h with a flow rate of 250m/second.

is this suitable for my application???

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
