My first question is why?
your engine already puts out more power than the '88 non-turbo VG. the injectors are (my guess here) probably the same size or a tad smaller than yours.

so why would you want to switch to injectors from a less powerful engine?

wasn't trying to be rude.. just straightforward.

Max injectors flow 220. I've heard up to 270 on some tests, but stock are rated at 220.

Z32 NA injectors are 300 or 330. TTZ injectors are around 350. good for 400hp on a Z car, so should do more than you need.

dunno the exact stuff on getting them installed, but they're not TOO bad. I know a couple people using them on 3rd gens.

also look at Q45 injectors. flow is the same as TTZ injectors and price is usually the same or cheaper for 8 instead of 6.

dunno what years. I was told that by a guy who actually DID have a turbo'd VG.. his recommendation to use the Q injectors and a JWT ECU. I just haven't gotten around to that part yet.


if they'll snap into the fuel rail, the only other thing you need to do is to possibly cut the old connectors off the wiring harness and solder new ones in.

Unless youre going forced air, turbo or supercharger, or even a cam, you wont need the bigger Injectors.

If you want more fuel in order to advance timing more, just get an FPR(fuel pressure regulator), or you might be able to rewire the fuel pump, if the maximas pump allows you to rewire. More voltage to the pump means more fuel being pumped.

In other words, leave your injectors alone.

I hope you're getting the ECU with it then.. and talk to JWT about which injectors to use too. since they play with all nissans and infinitis, they'll know best about what to do.

when you've figured out which injectors your using, have them program the ECU to run with those, and then you shouldn't have to add a fuel pressure riser to give you more gas when you spray. the ECU will simply open the injectors more and dump more fuel and you'll be done.

Constructive critism. Your numbers are off, which could lead to wasted money. I'd correct you but I feel my efforts would be unappreciated, so therefore, I will let others do the research I once did. Have a fine night good sir.

No really Matt, what are you trying to prove? You have money to spend on your Max? Do you really think I have to follow your deadlines for finishing my car? You are wrong, your specs are off. This could mean the difference between his injectors saving his *** on spray, or his engine being turned into a molten mass of metal. Don't try to flex your "I'm a moderator, I'm right" bull**** on me to try to make me back off. Been there, done that before you were even here, nevermind a moderator. You seriously need to get off your power trip cuz you're making yourself look like an over egotistical dumbass.

Actually mikey, from what I've seen, your the one w/ the ego trip. I see alot of snide remarks on how you imply your knowledge but then never post the answer to the question. At least Matt tried to answer to the best of his knowledge. We all try to learn more from the boards. It's how you got yours right? Right. When I see stuff I would rather not deal with, I simply don't chime in. Simple.

Plus I can remember when YOU were asking ME turbo questions.

I'm not trying to prove ****, Mike. I stated what I thought to be correct. If I'm wrong, then please correct me so we will all know the correct numbers. You have "taunted" everyone here for months with the "I have pics of a TT Max, but I won't show them to you." "I know what SkyMax has done to his car and I won't tell you." "You are wrong and I know the correct numbers, but I won't tell you."

Please get over YOUR ego trip and answer this guys' questions so he WON'T blow up his engine that you're alluding to.

Will it benefit me? No- other than being able to give people correct information in the future. I'm going a different route and won't need injectors for the time being. when I do, I certainly won't use you for a reference when I'm shopping for more parts.

when i had an injector go, my friend (tilleys99) had injectors from a Q45. it didn't work. well, sorta. it made the car barely run and backfire out the intake!!!!!! granted i only had one injector, but he (and i) figured they were the same. anyway, just thought i'd share.

IIRC, the stock VE/VG30DE injectors are 259CC...VG30DETT is 370CC..i've also heard the Z injectors are direct fit, but you'll run rich w/o ECU compensation.

another thing to check, is if infact the N/a 300zx injectors are larger, check infiniti J30s..same motor as the Z...
also, how about 3.5L VQ injectors? VG33 pathfinder/truck?

Where did you hear the z32 injectors were a direct fit?(I've heard the same). I think 94+ z32 nismo injectors are a little different from pre 94's as they won't fit.

searched, i talked to a few people (no names come to mind)...
it could be that the 94+ are different, as i've seen on tt.net people sell 94+ injector sets...but i've also seen that they're the same for NAs (havent paid attention to the TTs)..
its really hard to say where i got my info, but if i believe it, its from a reliable source(s)(at least reliable enough for me).
another thing, i saw a picture of a TTZ/VE(i think) injector..the VE was red, the TT was silver and they looked exactly the same except for the bottom where the TT was slightly larger.

whats the deal with the 94+ motors? what makes them so much different?

also, if a friend were to be swapping in a TT motor, which year/market should he go with...i think hes looking at a 93ish JDM..

Go to twinturbo.net and do a search. It's been done at least a few times. You are not going to get your tt swap questions answered here

i hadn't planned on it (i'm also not the one looking for comprehensive swap info). i was just wondering what made the 94+ motors different from the 90-93 and if he should get a specific year/JDM-USDM.
if no one can answer, then my question goes unanswered.
if its not important enough for me to start a thread, then its not that big a deal if no one has the answer.

OK even thought this went off the track! I want to know if the VG30 Injectors are the same as the VE30DE Injectors? Will they fit?Please don't be a **** and hold secrets. O No someone might copy me if they know what I am doing There comes a point in your life where you just don't care about what people now about. I already know I will win the race to having a dependable turboed VE first

Yes indeed, it can be a punch in the nuts when you are itchin for some info you really want and it just doesn't materialize when you request it. Kind of like asking a two paragraph question and getting a answer that doesn't relate to the question:

http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....hreadid=123086

Or perhaps someone is being secretive with something as in,

"Where did you see that price for those rims?"

JDwyer2821: "ME"

http://forums.maxima.org/showthread....hreadid=122972

Yes indeed, a state can be helpful when doing a search for rims. It eliminates time that would have been wasted in the other 49.

Press on in your search and I'm sure your efforts in helping others will come back around and you will be rewarded.

Press on in your search and I'm sure your efforts in helping others will come back around and you will be rewarded.
i'm not terribly happy when i post a question AFTER using the omnipotent/omniscient(sp?) SEARCH. so you know what answered my question? i had to PM a few people, asked around to those i knew on AIM, searched some more and got names of people who might know, and i got my question answered. now when someone asks, i'll have the answer as i've done the research (whether or not they feel i'm reliable is another thing).
as far as withholding information, there are certain things i will not say..such as any mods that i've figured out very easily, but general info/maintainance stuff should be shared among all. i think bryan H and matt(and whoever else) are very justified in not telling all about their little(or big) home made mods..you dont want people doing the exact things you've done on your own..sometimes you need to be original(but that doesnt mean those who "know" shouldnt give everyone else hints, if asked)..lightening a flywheel is not a homemade mod, nor should information regarding it be withheld.
however, if i post a question after searching for the answer (both on max.org and the internet in general both not finding either a direct answer to my question or a reliable source..or several different answers) i think its reasonable to expect an answer.
it really (for lack of a better word) ****es me off when i ask a simple question like how is the flywheel balanced, and i get smartass responses (which i enjoy reading..as long as my question gets answered) and nothing constructive by those who have the answer..i mean, my question was simple..is it balanced w/the PP, w/o the PP, does it counterbalance the crank? 3 words would've made me happy, but instead, i had to drop off the car w/o knowing and had to make a separate trip to provide the machine shop with the info, big hassle, hopefully it'll be worth it.

thats enough ranting for now...

now, can anyone tell me how correct i am in assuming the VE/DOHC VG injectors are the same (259CC) and the TT injectors are larger(370CC)? anyone know anything about the larger VG motors (VG33E), or VQs(VQ35DE) fitting? fitment is different from having them work correctly (ecu programming will obviously be needed for any that're larger than stock).
