  • Nismo vs Tomei

    Anyone familiar with the tomei and/or nismo FPRs? I'm planning out some upgrades for the winter, so please post you input on both. Injectors/fuel rail would be chosen according to the manufacturer.

        Here's what I know:

        Nismo FPR range: 28.4 - 85.2 psi
        Tomei FPR range: 29 - 87

        About the same. The Tomei fuel rail is available for both Jecs and Denso injectors, and can be setup for dual feed. Though the standard rail can be drilled out to accept the larger Denso injectors. Nismo I don't beleive has a rail of thier own.

          Nismo doesn't have their own rail, their injectors are designed to fit the stock rail.

          If you want to use Denso/Sard plugs then you will have to go with a Tomei rail, and use a Tomei FPR for best/easiest results.

          Both Nismo and Tomei make similar FPR for stock line usage, either is good.

          If you want to use the Tomei rail, you should use Tomei FPR #3 with Earls stainless lines. Thats the setup I have on my car at the moment.

                    I guess it's worth it but...i'm not doing the crazy upgrades like you, just some bolt ons! but yea i know, good things come in time. I shouldn't have believed him when he said..."about 10 days, and I won't give it back until it's 120% perfect."

                    as soon as it gets back from that shop it's going into Nissan for some brake upgrades, bigger then I expected, can't wait!

                      fueling system

                      When you get your car back I'll have to poke and find out how our fueling system is going. To be honnest I don't even know much about your build. I don't remember seeing a thread?! So I guess you went with the dual feed into the rail and single center return from the rail correct? Are you running earls to the fuel tank? to a surge tank? or just to the splitter where the earls meets the OEM lines? Also, looking at a tomei diagram of their setup, I see they have the FPR on the return line and the gauge on the incoming line?
                      ( I'm a noob at this fuel stuff atm lol). I'd like to see pictures if you don't mind

                      By the way did you decide for the brake pads? nismo S-tune ?

                        Yes, the fuel lines are on both ends of the rail with the center line.
                        The Earls just go to the OEM line to the tank. I'll send you pics when I get it back!

                        I will be going with the Nismo S Tune pads...on BCNR33 GTR Brembos and possibly Project Mu rotors.
                        That will probably go on the car by the end of the month. Then I will post a thread in the project car forum

                        My build is jsut basic bolts ons and the brakes. After that I will do the clutch and probably leave it at that with the exception of some suspension parts.
