Does Walbro Make A Direct Fit Fuel Pump?

[tek_01]

ah yeah never knew the tomei's come with the rubber seal. i bought the seal for the 33 for about $14 from nissan and the ring/lid thing for about $35

I just did the fuel pump on my series 1 r33. I did not see a rubber ring which i expected to find somewhere. I assum it sits between the black screw off ring and the white Plug underneath it which has the fuel lines and connectors on it?

Should there have been a rubber ring here.

The only rubber was the seal that sat around the inside of the hole. I just tightened the black screw on\off ring down and the fuel system seems to pressurise fine..

Another pump i've heard is really good is the Nippon Denso High Flow Fuel Pump, i've searched everywhere for one and manged only to find Tweakit.net who are very very over priced, also a workshop in melbourne Chasers sell them around $300 i think... apparently the tomei and HKS pumps are based on this denso pump (not 100% sure)

This is the link to the pump, not sure if anyones used them but apparently they hold big HP and are direct fit (not like tomei)

It's the rubber seal that sat around the edge of the hole when you removed the white plastic unit.

1st time i took mine apart, mine didn't move so i didin't see what the big deal was.

....2nd time (1 hr later as car wouldn't start ) it popped out with the plastic unit.

Went back in ok though.

Cheers man,

I was visualising a big O-Ring like seal somewhere. Mine is correct then.. .

Another thing, If I mounted a walbro pump in the same position on the bracket as the stock pump, will i still be able to drive the tank down till the fuel light comes on.

I noticed the walbro filter\pickup is only about 1/3rd the size of the original and sits at right angle to the pump which makes it hard to get it to face down deeper into the tank when pushin the pump back into position. I am pretty sure i got it facing down the right way.

Put the stock filter onto the walbro pump.

Just FYI I am slightly under 1/8 of a tank on the stock gauge and still going. I am planning to drive it down as far as possible, Hoping to see the fuel light, this will confirm how far u can drive your fuel down using the walbro pump and filter.
