Four rotor question (pic)

What are the bolts above the PP intakes? At least they look like bolts, could be injectors.

If your talking about the ones with the black lines ran to them, they would be the oil injection. Btw, that looks like a 12A 4 rotor.

Looks like the Scoot 4-rotor. They used 12AT rotor housings, which have oil injectors.

That sounds like an F1 car. I think I need to rethink my rebuild plans.

No. It's an FD with the rear end from an Infiniti M45.
