The reason those screws are so hard to get off with a Phillip's head is that they're not actually Phillip's, they're JIS (Japanese industrial standard). Learned this the hard way.
Btw, you guys are awesome. I watch all of your videos, they are very informative and detailed. Where I once had cold feet embarking on such projects, I feel confident with you guys in my corner. Thanx! I hope I don’t destroy my Z so wish me luck.
Nice job I’m really enjoying these videos! I hope you continue to make more content goin more in-depth with it. Not that all of us need it but it definitely makes the video more interesting! Keep up the good work
When re installed did you have to shave plenum for injector one? Every where I’ve looked says you have to. Seen a comment above said you didn’t but you hadn’t put the plenum back on. Awesome videos! Getting ready to do this to mine, have an 89 300zx tt JDM rhd.
@@ZBruhzchannel thank you! You wouldn’t happen to have a video of that anywhere? Super nervous about shaving the plenum. I have bad luck and feel like I’ll start shaving it and my rear hatch glass will explode or something 😂
@@aarongraybeal5503 I don't but there are write ups on twin turbo.net it's very simple. I shaved mine in a half moon shape to keep it uniform and clean. I wish I shaved all I've them but I was in a crunch to get this done
its not a phillips that is a problem. those are jIC screws and use a JIC screwdriver. im sure the screws are still tough to get out, but you are less likely to stip them if you use the correct screwdrive....
Nice vid. One question. Why the used engine oil on the o-rings? I use Dow Corning 111. It works well for me, and it's not supposed to break down rubber over time like oil tends to do.
What did you torque too? Had mine done a few years ago. Got the motor torn apart again, to do more maintaince and almost all the injectors retainers are loose. How can i keep this from happening again?
nice video what brand injectors are those I bought my z last year and looks like I may have the same ones. all I remember the guy that sold me the car was that he put new 740cc.
Wow $81 for qty6 injectors ? Are you familiar with these specific ones? I Need to get a set myself and before I do so just want to make sure that the ones I get are going to last.
No not at all. The plenum is off as we speak. If you want to do the swap of injectors while the plenum is still in the car then you will need to shave the plenum
Yeah I just put everything back on only to find that fuel injector #1 connector is being partially blocked by plenum. So I can’t connect the connection to the fuel injector. 1990 NA 300.
I had one issue so far, it was the third day driving the car one injector was causing a miss fire. Luckly it was cylinder 1 so easy pop out and replace. When you get them in the mail just ohm them out before install
Hey zbro’s, I’m about to change my fuel injectors and I was wondering about the egr valve: why is it a good idea to delete it and will the engine pass a smog check after the delete?
Deleting the egr just makes your car run cleaner since the system can get clogged over the years. I don't know if it will pass smog without it, up here we don't get tested on antique cars
Awesome video! My plenum is currently off for injector replacement , I have an early style engine, can I use the new style fuel rail/injectors or do I need to get an adapter kit and use the early style fuel rail ??
Thank you for the support! To my knowledge you can use an early style fuel rail with new style injectors via injector kit to a early style engine. But I don't know if you can use a new style fuel rail on an early style engine. I would do some research on twinturbo.net to see if that is a possibility.
@@ZBruhzchannel how have they been working out ? Because I’m rebuilding a 1993 and k need injectors I ordered the new wire harness with the new style injectors , and I need to get some but they are very pricey at the moment I’m looking for the best deal for my buck
this is a helpful video man! do you know if this adapter set will work on a vg30e maxima engine as well? i have the feeling that at least 1 or 2 injectors are on thier way out since it doesnt run 100% smooth and the spark plugs on cylinder 4 and 6 look like they run a bit lean.
@@ZBruhzchannel so you did end up splicing instead or trying to re pin it? asking because i just did this and she wont start and im not sure if i wired it wrong with the old harness or if my Cas harness has stopped working.

Good luck with your build and just take your time! Lable everything
can't wait to start on all of these things, just ordered all of the oem stuff for the 120k kit from z shack!
Awesome!!!
Goated with these step by step vids for the z🐐 not enough z32 content on the tube !
Nice guide Z-bro! It is time for me to upgrade to an early style! 370cc compare to 555cc huge difference!
Nice job I’m really enjoying these videos! I hope you continue to make more content goin more in-depth with it. Not that all of us need it but it definitely makes the video more interesting! Keep up the good work

Not a problem man!
Extremely helpful vid! And the timing of you making this couldn’t have been any better for me! THANKS! 🔥
You're welcome

I've always just used oil and never have had an issue

Tbh I just make them tight by feel. The fsm should have torque specs
whats a good decently priced brand for oem fuel injectors

Those are AUS I believe
Wow $81 for qty6 injectors ? Are you familiar with these specific ones? I Need to get a set myself and before I do so just want to make sure that the ones I get are going to last.
Unfortunately the deal is over due to it being an overstock item
Did you have to grind away some of the plenum to get the injector 1 to fit? I heard that's a thing.
No not at all. The plenum is off as we speak. If you want to do the swap of injectors while the plenum is still in the car then you will need to shave the plenum

how these injectorrs have worked in you z so farI? I need ito replace the injectors in my 300zx too
Great, had a hiccup with one due to pinched oring, besides that they have been good so far
How are those fuel injectors hanging in from parts geek ??
I had one that stopped working about 1 month in swapped it out and the car has been running great since! About 3,000 miles on them now.

@arturocastillo7362 each time I've ordered a set two of them are good for about a week or so then they let go. I'd ordered 8 to be safe haha
Where’s episode 1/2
Would this be an upgrade for the 1990 TT?
I wanted to get bigger flow fuel injectors, can I use any brand ?
Can I swap it the lates fuel rail in to a early engines vg30dett fue rail..?

I would contact z1 motorsports to see if it is compatible or not
@@ZBruhzchannel thanks, i send them a pm over thier instagram. 👌
@@99Lezard99 I would call for sure instead. They aren't really responsive on social media
@@ZBruhzchannel im from germany tho. 😅
@@99Lezard99 I see, I then would just email customer service!
which injectors capacity is best for non turbo z32 ?
270cc
Does anyone know if code 51 means the injectors are bad or is there anything else that can trip it
What brand injector did you go with?
Beck/Arnly
No need to buy a new harness?
Nope, just new plug connectors to splice in
@@ZBruhzchannel thanks man thats going to definitely save me some cash lol
