I just found the 425cc injectors arent fitting corectly in the rails I have.
Heres my new injectors(bought off ebay a bit ago) The blue are the new ones, the red was in the rails below.
Here are the rails:
What rails do I have, are they the correct NA ones? Did I get incorrect injectors
If somebody has rails I can use for sure I will buy them RIGHT NOW.
For reference:

As I recall, the 92-94 NA rails are the most desirable.

I got a full set of rails + injectors + pressure reg at the local j/y for $25

I get them at the JY also, I sell them for $40/set and $10 to ship them. Not too bad if you figure it this way:
$25 for the parts
$15 to go to the JY and pull them
$10 to get them left at your door.
Of course if you live near a JY (I am 40 miles from mine) or if you need to get a lot of stuff, it is wiser to make the trip yourself.

yeah I will be getting yours, the yard here is 40 miles away too and since my car is currently in pieces thats a no go.
Can anybody I.D. the rails I have though?

I checked the numbers on the rails in the pics you posted, they are 92/94 na rails! Could you have gotten the wrong injectors? I am sending your Paypal payment back untill we find out what you need.

The part number for the injectors is 16611-AA101. Subaruparts.com didn't bring anything up though... I don't know how complete their parts database is.

My previous injector thread

NICO - I should have listened to your heads up.
I guess I need to find rails from a 91 NA auto to utilize these injectors.
WTB: 91 AUTO NA RAILS!

The 90-91 n/a rails are the same for auto or manual, I have a set here I can send you if you are sure this is what you need.

According to reddevils post its what I need, so I will take them. Would you like these rails in exchange?

I don't want to trade, I only have one set of 90/91's and five sets of 92/94's.
It's 2:30 am where I am in the east, time to get some

the rials you have will take sti 550cc injectors, the injectors you got are australia japan injectors i have a set but in yellow wit the rials.
the australia japan injectors i still have not seen a rial in north america subaru uses. even useing the rials from japan are diffrent, they wont bolt up to any north american intake manifold.

I got paypal'd for the 90-91's but the post from NICO says they will not work, I'll pack them up but will not ship them until I hear from you just to be sure these are what you want.

Those blue injectors should work with the 90-91 rails.

sweet. I would love to get this underway. Now if deadbolt would get a usable vf39 center section in stock I can get that fixed up. Then its just a FCD install and a front mount away from even lower gas mileage! ! W00t !

For reference:

correct me if I'm wrong, but the blue ones look like EJ20g injectors... pretty sure you need EJ20G rails to fit them ,they are longer than any other side feed. The red ones are regular NA injectors and the rails they came out of will fit any late model side feed subaru injector (like out of a US WRX) or most side feed Nissan injectors. Your blue injectors, without the right rails are going to be pretty much ueseless to you as those injecotrs and rails are harder to come by in the states.

270 cc NA on left, 430 cc on right.

that's a 90-91 manual NA injector, which should fit the same rail as a turbo rail. If you have the same injector and it fit those rails, then his blue injectors should fit the turbo rails. Those injectors don't look like they fit the same rail from the photo, but I assume they do since you posted it, unless you were trying to illustrate something else?

I am saying that the 430 cc injectors fit the same rails as the 270 cc injectors.
