Fuel Injector *WIRES*

Dont think I should have made a new thread about this but... Does anybody know where I can get some new wires/connectors for all six injectors?

i know another 3rd genner got some from deatscheworks (sp???) when he got injectors from them, because he got the 93-94 style injectors for his 89 VG (they also had to put adapters in his fuel rail, since he didn't procure a 93-94 fuel rail which would have made life easier).

i thought the 93-94 injectors worked fine in the 89-92 fuel rail? could have sworn that greeny had a video of doing. i could be wrong, more than likely wrong.

no, the 89-92 and 93-94 rails are quite different. without an adapter the 93-94 injectors will not seal up in the bottom of the 89-92 fuel rail cups (i tried it w/ some spare parts) and you will just GUSH fuel into the cylinders and mess everything up.

now, PHYSICALLY, the 93-94 VG, all VE, and all VQ30DE injectors are the same. It's just that they have different flowrates for the VG (180cc) and VE/VQ (259cc)

(It occurs to me that a bad, intermittent injector electrical connection could be a cause of injector failure!)

If you are looking for replacement injector connectors, be aware that the common Bosch "EV1" injector connector doesn't appear to have the correct, "offset" middle pin that our 3rd gen maxima's OEM JECS injectors have, so they won't work.

I did source some connectors matching our JECS injectors, which can be cut off and soldered onto our maxima harness from this $21 (plus shipping) harness of three connectors, from courtesy parts here:

This 1990-1992 300ZX harness also has the "new and improved" connector, which eliminates the leak-prone rubber sealing boots in favor of weatherpack type seals (one individual seal per wire built right into the back of the connector.)
