I might be able to get a limited quantity of Bosch 044 or 984 fuel pumps. Not sure on final pricing yet but they should be around $350 for the 044 and around $250 for the 984. I was originally going to get the 984, but since it's so cheap to get the 044 I'm tending towards that instead now.

Anyway I was just wondering if there would be anyone interested in these at this price. If so please reply here. Please note that this is going to be a one-off! Once I have my pump that's it. The only reason I'm posting it here is because I may be able to order several at once, but they will more than likely have to be the same type. So tell me (in public please, no pm's because it becomes difficult to maintain a tally) which pump you want, and I'll probably get whatever the majority wants (but if there's not much in it, I'll go for the 044).

The reason why it's a one-off is because I have a friend who deals with Bosch but not in their car parts, and Bosch don't like trading to non-auto dealers with their car parts. This is going to be a personal favour to my mate from his contact in Bosch and it won't be repeated! Escpecially since it's also a personal favour to me from him :P

It's also entirely possible for the above reason that he can only get one (for me) so please don't get offended if this offer is suddenly withdrawn. I'm only offering this to fellow enthusiasts of this forum on the off-chance I can get more than one.

Sorry guys, just got word that I can get one only direct from Bosch :D (for me, and a lot cheaper than I thought :)) However, I still may be able to help.

Firstly, the trade price for the 044 from Repco is $355, and for the 984 it's $245. So if you can, try getting finding someone who can get trade prices from Repco and all will be sweet. Or even if you work for a company that's even semi-vaguely automotive-related you should be able to fax through an order on your employer's behalf and probably get trade prices that way.

Secondly, my mate may be able to deal with Repco because his company may fall into the aforementioned category, but this would be a bit of a hassle and he'd probably want about $20 per unit for his time. So the theoretical price would be a bit more than I originally quoted, ie around $375 for the 044 and $255 for the 984.

The upside to this is if he *can* do this through Repco, there will be no time limit or rush of orders needed. I should find out by Monday if he can set up an account with Repco and get the trade prices for you. But if you can deal with Repco yourself then that'll be better, it'll save some hassles and 20 bucks.

Hope this has been helpful, and sorry about the original offer falling through! (it would have been a LOT cheaper than what I first quoted too :))

Edit: Crap! It just gets (slightly) worse and worse! I forgot about the freight cost from Repco to my mate's work, and from there to you. Dunno what that would be but it would be added to the cost. Dealing with Repco youself is definitely going to be the best way if you can swing it but even at an extra $30-40 or so it's still going to be much cheaper than retail.

      Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.

      I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
