Need injectors. Why the big diff in $$$?
I noticed that my injectors were leaking while I pressure tested the system (replacing the FPR and FPD). I called Mazdaformance. They said they could be ordered from Mazda for $250 each. While
http://www.rx7trix.com/store/customer/home.php?cat=74
wants $125 each for Nippondenso.
Will I get what I pay for (as they say) if I buy the ones from rx7trix?
Does anyone have any ideas why the prices could be so different?
Does anyone have any other suggestions for replacements?

Mazdaformance has a much smaller parts mark-up than other dealers, they are great guys to deal with. I would definitely suspect the rx7trix injectors of being used or remanufactured as well.

Maybe call them and finding out from them would be a better idea than all of us guessing why they are so much cheaper.
I'm sure they will tell you if they are used or rebuild versus brand new.

So Jason, $125 is a reasonable price for a new injector? Is there any difference (performance etc) that would in any way justify $250?
I am trying new O-rings first and hoping that the leak was from them. I am not too sophisticated with this stuff. I can't really tell if fuel was dripping from the center or the sides. If this doesn't work I'll really have to consider the $125's.
