Ok guyz.... please bare with me......

 

I have det above 16 PSI with all the upgrades internally and externally ( pls check my rides, as many things to list).

 

I believe this is either fuel related or air related, after messaging JD.

 

So...... Would this be something i require to eliminate det with the mods I have??

 

FPR is really not my tech thang.......

 

Cheerz people....

No mate,your fuel pressure should be fine using a stock fpr.They are good for 700hp.It may be worth swapping yours with a known good one though.You could get the car on a dyno to see what its doing also.

Got a new FPR and the other one (cannot remember the name.....lol) from Z centre last year Jim.

Just on a side note matey, not started the old girl for well over 8 weeks, cause off the shite weather, but........ started her today and she fired up after 3-4 turns, a little tap from the lifters for a few seconds, then nothing..... no smoke, no noise, nothing.......... only a great roar from the zorsts............

 

I was a little apprehensive, but, and it is a big but..... i knew from your skill and knowledge, noone comes close to your 300zx experience. I am so glad you rebuilt my 300zx engine buddy!!!!!

Even if i do not require a FPR, they do look ubber cool in a good looking engine compartment, or is it a complete waste of time and money.

I would like to get 1 just for the looks to complement my engine bay, or will this just add to complications in engine management.

Do you have a fuel pressure gauge, that will tell you if it's a pressure issue. Sounds like you're jumping the gun a bit to be honest.

 

Is your chip generic or did you have a mapping session with JD? Has it always detted above 16psi or recently started?

I have an adjustable FPR on my car , fairly pointless but it was put on by the previous owner to be used as a fuel pressure gauge. (And to look cool!) So you could get one for that purpose :)

No FP gauge at the moment, but i do have new "Zcentre" FPR and FD. I do have a specific chip from JD, but with no mapping session. It has detted above 16psi before and after the engine rebuild, so no issues with engine rebuild.

I have spoken to JD and he advised on either fuel or air, so i thought if i get the adjustable FPR in place then at least JD can adjust as required on the fuel side if necessary, albeit when i do get to JD for the mapping/set-up.

Thanks for the input guyz......
