There wont be a difference in pressure just the flow and how well the pump and HOLD the pressure. the pressure in the fuel rail is adjusted by the fuel pressure regulator

I bought one from City Ford about 2 months ago, got it for around $210 i think. Great pump noticed my car revved better under load so I think my old pump was on its was out. Hard wired it directly to the battery for constant 13.8 V current. Definately worth buyin one I reckon :rofl:

i bought the pump but havn't installed it yet, i read somewhere (can't remember where) that u might need to replace the lines/wiring from the stock ones, is this true?

No you use the old original wiring as your control or trigger for the 30Amp relay you need to install. you then run the larger cables from the battery both + and - to the area where your pump is. The negative cable goes directly onto the neg terminal of the pump the positive goes one side of the relay contact and then from the other side of the contact to the positive side of the pump.

Your control cables or old pump supply then connects to the coil of the relay one either side of the coil so when you turn your ign on it activates the coil and completes the circuit through the relay contacts and let power flow to the new pump.....easy really :)

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
