Tomei Fuel Pump - Where To Buy

[Trav33]

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?

[andz]

you're right, i cant seem to find them in aus

tried nismo.com.au (UAS), modyourcar, justjap etc

im looking at them and the Nismo one as well

Nengun delivers the best price

if you dont mind waiting for 3 weeks

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

I thought nengun were meant to be efficient with their orders? I've just ordered some small bits and pieces from them...

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.

[pkblade]

That's cos you prob won't get it at 100yen=$1 more like 90-95yen to the dollar. Total cost would be closer to $330.

Xe.com has the currency exchange of : 1.00 JPY = 0.0100254 AUD at the moment.

[Cubes]

1.00 JPY = 0.0100254 AUD, thats crazy.

What can I buy.................

[Trav33]

Cubes, you can buy me a Tomei fuel pump...

Greenline quoted me 39233 yen, including freight, so thats almost $400 AUD.

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

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.
