Any thoughts about refurbished injectors? These are about 1/2 price of new injectors. LRparts.net are a reputable supplier I think.

I would say get new.
If you bought kits they would have to be installed into the bodies and tested again.
So probably not many $$$ to be saved.

98% of all Land Rovers built are still on the road.
The other 2% made it home.
Cost difference between Britpart and Genuine seals: £2.04. Knowing that your brakes won't fail at any moment: Priceless.

After a week or so of looking around I decided to bite the bullet and go with the reconditioned injectors from LR Direct. They advised they sell 100s of these and have never had a return and these are reconditioned Bosch injectors, so quality should be good. I hope both are true.
The saving was about $400. Hopefully that is the last of the parts.

Ok the engine rebuild is progressing. Block sorted (honed, new set of pistons, bearings etc), head is ok (new injectors), injector pump tested and ok, new coolant pump, clutch kit etc.
The next question is what to do about the turbo. It seemed ok, maybe needs new seals.
Do I spend a couple of hundred on a refurb with new core (CHRA) seals and gaskets, buy a new Britpart turbo ERR4802 for about $650 delivered, a new Garrett for about $900? Or go to the trouble of adapting a TD04 MHI turbo?
Remembering this D1 is mostly for my teen son. Thanks.

I have had success with an ebay chra, mybe I was lucky.
The other option is a hybrid chra from a reputable company.
The replacement chra with included manifold housing are not quite the same as oem, but do work.
Unless you had a mitsi turbo already I would not bother trying to source and fit.
Cheers,
Tony

I haven’t picked up the old ones. But I get a bond refund when they arrive.
