380 - 440 injectors
Does the standard cap just bolt down on to the 440s as they are a totally different shape? (see pics)
Also that damage on the top of the 440, will it cause any issues?
Standard 380
440 with damage
Cap made to fit 380
Car is MY93 WRX not sure what model the injectors came off.

depending on what they are as i can t really tell from the pic, they look like they are off a later scooby, the grey injectors you have have no lip around the top of the injector the yellow ones do. This lip prevents them from sitting all the way down the cup on the rail even with the adapter kit. This is the problem i had anyway i think mine where off a version 5 or 6 and i tried fitting them to a version 3 rail. be careful as if they dont fit and leak fuel into the bores this can cause hydraulic lock in the engine and could cause massive damage

Strange, I have never read about anyone having problems like that before and have read quite a few posts about swapping injectors for background.
Mine are Ph.1 rails and 380s and the ones I bought are Ph.2 yellow 440s by the looks of it. So theres no way these can be fitted to my rail?

Yeah thats the kit I was going to get, but that just sorts out the lower part to fit to the fuel rails. My concern is with the cap/top of the injector and weather the standard cap will actually bolt this injector down?

included with the kit is little spacers
you need to take the little rubber bit out of the alloy support mate.
you have phase 1 rails, you need a phase 2 fitting kit.
i have an early classic, and have side feed 500ccblue injectors fitted
phase 2 flow better than phase 1.

if you closer at the pic mate, you can see it comes with spacers and slightly longer bolts.
i've fitted lots of these, and never had a problem mate.
a little tip for you too.
do one at a time, and blow throught the fuel feed hose, to make sure you have a good seal before moving to the next.

awsome cheers mate! You dont think that damage is a problem do you? As you can see the circular ring at the top isnt exactly circular now?
