S13 SR20DET stock fuel rail installation?

[om3ga]

This is a very simple and stupid question i know haha. I have alot of small black plastic spacers and random bolts for the fuel rail. Im trying to get a close up pic of the fuel rail and also a pic of the bolts that hold it in place, whether they are all the same length etc. Im assuming there are 3 black pastic spacers used under the fuel rail in between it and the intake manifold. Ive just been thinking about it and need to get a pic to calm myself down hahaha.

Yes. Spacers sit between the rail and the manifold. Bolts are all M8x1.25 and about 30mm long.

I just took my fuel rail off of the stock IM and put it onto a Greddy.

On the stock there should be 4 bolts an 4 spacers.

On the greddy, you only use 3 out of the 4.

Hope that helps.

That does help im installing a greddy intake manifold as well haha, Do you know the torque specs for an s13 sr intake manifold? Im not sure if its the same as the s14 sr but i dont want to break/strip anything.

i think its like 17 or 18 ft-lb i THINK

I just figured it out i was looking at the japanese s13 sr20det fsm and found its 1.8-2.1 NM which is the same as the S14 SR being 13-15 ft lbs in case anyone else needs them! Throttle body to manifold is 13-16 ft lbs!

The throttle body bolts are pretty beefy.

I just got the Greddy Manifold, and was very happy with the hardware and instructions they give you.

They gave me 2ft of vacuum hose to run from coldpipe--->IACV and about 2 ft of water hose to run from IACV to block....it looks like you can use one of the hoses the same as stock, but the other one needs to be "looped", since the IACV is mounted upside down on the greddy mani.

Everything else is pretty plug and play, man. Just dremmel off the ends of the 2 brackets that face up (you'll be able to immediately tell which ones when you got to put the rail in), and it's in the directions.

Only thing I haven't done is the throttle body bracket fix, which I hope isn't too difficult.

I can get you a custom bracket if you need it, its a clean setup and pain free ill post a picture in a sec.
