It's not the end of the world... it might cause the injector to come loose if the engine is running rough, but most Z32 owners have experienced broken injector clips and dealt with it until the injector went bad.

so the plastic tip of the injector just helps hold it in ? i think ive read in thesse forums that my style injectors (90-93 mine being 93) are common to breaking. so i should just put the injectors back in and wait for then to fail and replace. even with it being crack is fine

My mistake, I thought you were referring to the connector plastic being broken. The plastic cap being broken isn't the end of the world, either, though.
