93-94 vg30e injectors

Anyone know who's got the best price for the 93-94 vg fuel injectors?

Rock Auto has brand new Bosch injectors on close-out right now for $38 each (U.S.), don't think that price would be beatable anywhere. They're normally $100 each. Might want to jump on that.

Thanks James, I found a set of 6 reman JECS injectors that comes with flow chart for $160 U.S. How are the Bosch compared to the JECS? Both sound like good deals.

I think rather than comparing JECS vs Bosch, you should be comparing used vs. new.

JECS makes the OEM injectors (at least for the VE, I'd assume they made the VG too). However, in your case, all that means is your $160 injectors are used OEM ones. That's not really saying much. "Reman" injectors are just used injectors that have been cleaned and tested for proper spec ohm-wise.

Our injectors almost universally fail electrically rather than being clogged or whatever. This means you're not really getting much benefit from rebuilt injectors in my opinion, as the most likely reason they would fail is not addressed at all by cleaning them. So if you're going with used injectors there's not really any point of paying for rebuilt (cleaned) injectors. Just get used ones at junkyards or something.

If I had to choose between 100% brand new Bosch injectors, or used OEM injectors for only $70 difference, I'd choose the new ones all day everyday.

Thanks for the info James92.

I can't remember if i've asked *you* this, or someone else, but is there a problem with mixing brands of fuel injectors? I'm thinking they all should spray the same, right?

For 160hp n/a stock purposes, I'd think you'd notice zero difference by mixing different brands of injectors. I'm sure if you flow tested them all, you might could pick out some differences - but whether or not that'd be a "problem" in a real world installed-in-the-car-and-driving-it-around scenario? Slim chance.
