hey fellas putting a r33 gtr pump in my gtst abd just wondering. where the lugs go onto the pump, the positive has a rubber boot around it and the negative doesnt.. just wondering what would happen if the positive one did not seal properly? would there be a risk of explosion ?? reson being is the gtr pump has a slightl different mounting point so it does not seal up 100%

anyone give me confirmation that its ok for them not to be 100% insulated??

thanks, awaiting reply before i do anything else

hmmm, anyone else?

also the fking rubber mount doesnt match up with the gtr pump so now im stuffed with no car to go anywhere. spewing hard!

also there is a thing on top of the pump that the gtst one didnt have, whats that for? and also a threaded hole underneath the pump too

am i missing anything else? like a pressure relief valve or something??

try and adapt the rubber if you can if not then you might have to remove it. as long as the pump is mounted in there ok and the wires cannot short out in anyway then you should be ok.

Dont worry about the round thing on your current pump because if you have a fuel reg it will be okay anyway

Where's the dedication !!!? :P

As mentioned there would have to be a crossing of wires. The spark would take a fair amount more then 12v to jump from the + to the body. That said, i don't think normal heatshrink is fuel proof ... im sure it wouldn't hurt leaving em exposed.

well heres an update, the workshop installed the pump for me. and damn its loud. can hear it when turning the ignition to ON and when pressing the accelerator very loud inside and out. and whn on idle u can hear it humming inside the car only

is this normal? or have they not used a proper rubber mount on the bottom of the fuel pump??

its pretty loud and im not really happy

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
