Gtr Fuel Pump In A Gtst?

[anthonymcgrath]

fitted gtr fuel pump over wkend (well a mate did and I looked on!) ...it didn't quite fit the bracket but its nowt a couple of thick cable ties didn't sort out to hold it in place. The pump is working fine and the car feels a bit more responsive too but the pump seems to sound a little more whiny - its more evident when in the car than outside it strangely.

Has anyone else fitted a gtr fuel pump and can they vouch for it being a little louder?

-cheers I thought it sounded a bit whinier - at first it was a little irritating but I've grown to ignore it - just turn music up a little Mark, I fitted one as I were told it would certainly help when it comes to remap/pfc time this wkend coming (woohoo!) ..I'm not sure what power they can supply but it cant be worse than the last one. The thing I have noticed is that the car certainly boosts alot better than it did previously - it did nowt but hesitate when I floored it but it seems really strong now right thru the rev range - theres still a bit of hesitation (need to gap plugs to 0.8mm) but its definitely improved the car

I had to put one in my 32 and squeezed a GTR pump into GTSt sender bracket and man does it sing like. "GNEEYAWAHH" vibrating like crazy in the sender bracket.

I bought some fuel resistant rubber to insulate it against the sender and it worked great. Checked on it 3 weeks later to make sure all was ok and the rubber has swollen and become flakey so I removed the rubber immediately. Maybe the rubber wasn't actually fuel resistant? I'm not sure? I don't work for Mythbusters so I wouldn't know but it cetainly shut the pump up!

I have lived with it for about 3 years now and your right, you get used to it, it sounds tough too at lights when it's competing with your exhaust for noise honours.
