Well bit of a pain today went to fit injectors and the bloke forgot to put in the extra adapters for is200's so got to wait for them to arrive now!!!

The red bits I guess, fuel rail spacers to make them fit as they are German injectors


Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 04-01-2021

No I got the red parts but the connector is to low so you can't get the injector to fit as it hits the head or inlet manifold I'm getting him to email me a pic


Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - toxo - 04-01-2021

Ah right, are they meant to come with little metal standoffs that go on the end? I've seen people using those as injector adaptors before, small bit of alu done on a lathe

One problem i can see though is where the fuel rail bolts on the inlet manifold covers the holes very slightly and will not screw in ive messaged IKE to see what the score is with this if its just a manufacturing fault because after it costing £500 i shouldnt need to do any modifying heres a pic so you can see
