Hi everyone,

I am looking into upgrading the fuel pump for my R33 GTST. I don't want a Walbro or Bosch as I just want a direct swap so don't have to muck around with it.. I know it would be easy to do but I'd prefer a more factory style setup.. less chance of problems as far as I'm concerned.

I am just after some experiences with installing the Nismo or Tomei pumps.

Are they particularly noisy? one more than the other if anyone knows?

I am steering towards the Nismo but thought I would get some feedback first.

Thanks

Thanks guys

Paul - GTR33, are you meaning a second hand one or new? I haven't priced a new one, second hand I'd rather not risk my engine on it, plus you could save a bit of money but it's still a 10 yr old pump and maybe on its way out.. would like to know your opinion though

Trident - let me know what you think of it after a drive.

thanks again

I was under the impression that the tomei/nismo fuel pump was the same pump.

Anyway I have a nismo pump in an R32gtst, it is noiser than stock but cant hear it with the music on. Not bearly as loud as a gtr or bosch one though

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • 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.
