Hey Guys,

I think i've decided to upgrade to a Tomei fuel pump, because its a 30 minute bolt in job, and because its meant to be one of the quieter pumps. Nengun have the, for approx $360, but i cant find anyone else who sells them. None for sale on ebay either!

Any suggestions on what other suppliers sell them?

Anyone got comments on the Tomei fuel pump?

Haven't checked if it's the same one as on Nengun but ask > Greenline < for a quote.

Sent an email to them, will see what they say.

There website shows 27k yen, which works out to be about $270 + freight on top i guess... seems too cheap.

Other options are Walbro for about $170, Bosch 040 for about $220 and Bosch 044 for about $260.

These are the cheapest prices i have seen on the forum for these fuel pumps.

Please dont slam me if you can get better prices, just post up your price.

Walbro=heard too many negative comments, including the need to direct wire them.

Bosch=bit more stuffing around to install

Nismo/Tomei=direct bolt in, and meant to be a bit quieter from what ive heard

Pffft I've had my Walbro for a year and a half, I had a expert(Boostworx) install mine, didn't hear them give me any negitive comments back and mine is all good! never had a problem with it and you know what ITS QUIET!!!! Walbro FTW on price and install!

In relation to importing stuff from Japan neither Nengun, Greenline or Perfectrun will use the currency rate as shown by Xe.com (despite the fact that Greenline provide a link to this website). Interestingly Nengun use an exchange rate that is more favourable to us (in Australia) than Greenline do and delivery from Nengun is also slightly cheaper despite both companies using EMS.

My suggestion would be to convert Nengun's prices to Yen, compare prices with Greenline and Perfectrun and if the later two have cheaper prices ask Nengun to price match. With Nenguns better exchange rate and slightly cheaper postage that should work out the cheapest you can get stuff. Then you just have to wait as Nengun usually take a bit longer than Greenline to deliver (I've never ordered stuff from Perfectrun so I can't comment on their delivery times).

Oh - I'm getting a NISMO fuel pump.

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
