CA18DET question, already searched

[sjbsuperman1425]

Alright, i've been doing some research and im ALMOST ready to put my motor in and get it out of the driveway for once! I just have a few questions. so here it goes. and BTW i did read the forums, just want a for sure clean cut answer please

I have a Walbro 255lph Fuel Pump, stock injectors, stock fuel rail and FPR, and a 300zx fuel filter with a FMIC. how much PSI can i push and still be ok?

How much power do you think i will put down with this setup and the MAX PSI i can push safely?

i just dont want to get my car running then BLOW the motor. I have an oil pressure and boost gauge as well so i can monitor stuff. I know what im doing a little bit, but am still new the these Engines. Thanks Guys!

Get an adjustable FPR. A NISMO unit will work fine. If you're on the stock turbo you'll make 200 whp if you're lucky. On an SR T25 you can probably make 220-230 whp on the stock injectors.

You won't want to push more than 12psi out of the stock T25... looses its "umph" after that

i do too and my car has been driving great...she purrrs like a beast and doesnt hesitate or crap out i used to have a fuel leak thinking its too much for stock fuel system but ended up my line was too long and it didnt hold on the collar of the hardline

you should be fine

I agree with the above statements. Are you planning on just staying with that mildly modded setup or are you going to upgrade as you budget allows? The reason is that injectors can be found for pretty cheap if you are going to get them flow tested and serviced. Even when I get my new injectors, I plan on doing that so that I have a close to perfectly matched set. Just food for thought.

i plan on building the whole motor. New pistons, camshafts, etc. as my budget allows. I do plan on doing new injectors soon but then i'd have to get my ECU tuned right?
