Ok guys, I have been doing some extensive research on fuel pump upgrades and trying to compare all the options for an RB25DET aiming 250 - 270rw/kw. I have seen many mixed comments on most of the major brands and thought to make a decent thread strictly on fuel pumps. This hopefully will help others too. 1. Please Poll your preference. 2. Please list your engine and specs (inc Fuel Pump) as well as power output. 3. Please comment on your personal experiences with various fuel pumps including: - Ease of installation - Noise level in cabin - Starting issues - 1/4 tank syndrome Regards, Sarkis

will do... ill write up a thread with Dyno and all info once i have completed the work and tune... Cheers

Hmmm could be injector related... id run a decent injector cleaner with a good batch of Shell V-Racing and down shift to 2nd while doing 60km/h going down a steep hill and let it roll while revs are up... that will open up ur injectors and clean out most crap... cause injector issues usually happen when they cold and sort them selfs out as the car warms up... happened exactly same to my SSS Let us know how you go... Good luck Regards, Sarkis

Damn those British and their Petrol I always use V-Racing or Vortex... my car seems to dislike Ultimate too Well ill be getting Adam at JEM to tune my car and i have seen some ANIMAL R33's step off his dyno... so i cant wait to do it all... Cheers

Thats a fair decent figure man... good work... you would snapped me lol glad i didnt run you hahaha... have you ran it at WSID yet? whats your 1/4 mile time?

Ahhh yes i remember... hehehe was hoping you would give it a squirt to give you a run... ur car seemed stock lol... wat sort of power figures you got at the wheels? and who did your work for you?? Cheers

yea you can use any high temp paint but for $10 and him spraying it... i wouldn't bother doing it myself... just my 2c Cheers

Currently have bout 180rw/kw and aiming for 250+rw/kw Hahaha yea that was me... were you in the White R32 heading toward cecil hills? hehehe should organise a cruse or just a friendly meet...

I would be wrapped with 250+rw/kw and wouldn't want anything more powerful for street use... mid 12's is my aim Thanks

Hey Guys, just got a quote for $10 from a radiator shop to spray an FMIC kit with black thermal paint... Wetherill Park Radiator Service Unit 24/ 274 Victoria St Wetherill Park NSW 2164 ph: (02) 9604 7798 Ask For: Chris Regards, Sarkis

Thanks for the advise Ronin ill keep it in mind, although for $50 or so, a Radiator repair shop will spray it with their thermal paint and will also aid in cooling... Cheers

Yea i was considering a GTR cooler.. but for the total cost of cooler + custom piping + fitting, might as well get a TRUST FMIC kit ($795) and get it sprayed black... Cheers

Anyone? Please advise needed... Thanks

on a related note, would it be safe pushing the stock internals around 260 - 280rw/kw? Please comment on the parts i have listed above if you guys recommend anything else... Cheers

Hahaha always the odd one out ay Paul? :laughing-smiley-014: By painting it black, it will make it LESS obvious to spot and not to mention when driving at night will be virtually invisable... Cheers

Yea thats my exact thought too.. can do the cams later on if needed... my list goes as the following: - Highflow BB turbo/Garret bolt-on - Apexi PFC + Tune - Eboost 2 (or any decent EBC) - Z32 AFM - SARD 600cc Injectors - Tomei Fuel Pump (was considering Walbro 255lt/h) - Just jap FMIC Kit (painted black) Anything that im missing? Cheers

Yea for sure, cops will pick at ANYTHING they can just to issue a fine or defect... especially with us "chocko" looking guys lol Besides it would put a huge smile on my face when i smash a supra, sti, clubsport etc off the lights and my car looks stock as Cheers

One more thing guys, you think its work upgrading the stock manifold and cams?? how much increase would they give with a decent high flow? Cheers

Will do guys, im already getting heaps of requests for the R34 SMIC even before i have taken it of hehe... should auction it Ill keep you guys informed on the cost and where to get the FMIC Kit painted thermo black... wil be in sydney area Regards, Sarkis

yea on the stock turbo the R34 SMIC was the best investment... read my thread on the R34 SMIC upgrade... http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=142510 Yes, now that im chasing more power ie. highflow turbo, injectors, fuel pump, ECU... a FMIC will be required for the 18 - 20psi boost level... im aiming for 250+rw/kw If 200rw/kw is your aim, then the R34 SMIC upgrade is the best option! Regards, Sarkis

HPC coating isnt a bad idea, but im going to call a couple radiator repair places in my area and see how much to spray the FMIC and pipping all in their thermo black paint... cheers

Well i service my car every 5000km with Royal Purple 10W40 and ALWAYS warm up my car before i drive and ALWAYS cool it of for 3 min before i turn it off.. so these precautions should maximise turbo life... I want to stick to BB highflow cause of quality, longer life as well as proven earlier spool which is what makes it more streetable... im still waiting on Trooper to PM me the specs and price for this new bolt-on Turbo from Garrett... One more thing guys, you think its work upgrading the stock manifold and cams?? how much increase would they give with a decent high flow? Cheers

I think i might call a few radiator places and see what they use... sounds like the way to go... Cheers

Yep they sure do Dave, and even less for exchanging your turbo.... thats why they have best bolt-on turbo package you will ever find, however for those who are wanting a BB highflow, GCG was thought to be the only decent place to get it done... Now i have Precision Turbocharges and have an excellent reputation with all the top performance shops in the area as well as offering a better price than GCG... all of V&E Rigoli's cars are using their turbos... Cheers
