to all of those people supporting the 255lph walboro pump - they are shit. You need to get the Walboro 255lhp HP version. The high pressure version handles pressure a lot better than the standard 255 one. The standard one is for a NA car.

And I Don't care what you all say - I have one, and I have seen what they do. As soon as you up the boost beyond 10psi, you are playing with fire. The pump can't handle pressures above 50psi very well at all.

Standard fuel rail pressure - 42psi + Boost (10psi) = 52psi.

As soon as this pump reaches 55psi - 60psi, the flow drops dramatically.

Have a look at the Blue line on this flow chart -

I picked up a brand new genuine Bosch 044 pump off ebay for $204.50 + delivery. Going to mount it externally in the boot and draw through the standard intank pump which my mechanic assures me is fine.

So are you saying my mechanic is a liar? personally I would take his word over some random on the internet - no offence :)

Does your mechanic deal with much performance stuff? When it comes to performance some mechanics dont know there arse from their elbow, all they know is servicing etc etc standard stuff.

Talk to a performance workshop or fuel systems shop. Theyll tell you the same thing.

He has a 10 sec RB30DETT powered VH that he built himself, does that qualify? I also went to school with him and he is a very close friend :)

I had the same thoughts as you when he first told me to mount it externally, he assures me it will be fine. Either way, he's putting it in so if it doesn't work he can redo it .

I dont understand why people insist on fitting fuel pumps in the boot, its illegal for a reason, people do die from cars catching on fire. Ever wonder why there isnt one car that is complied that has the fuel pump in the boot?

its because the mechanic is lazy...... simple as that.

My walbro one is already installed, so i cant check if there/where any numbers on the side. .

however on the box, it says..

So can anyone confirm which model i got?

cheers

Edit: found it:

Cool i got the HP version!! the GSS-342.

Hey champ,

16 is not really a good air/fuel ratio! in fact thats really really lean. I would suggest a fuel filter change, injector clean, and possibly a fuel pressure reg and DEFINATELY a fuel pump. There are a few around 040 bosch, walbro or nismo or gt0r pumps. it really depends what your power goal is. A re-map of your ecu or a piggyback fuel computer like a SAFC1/2 or a Neo will help harness those ponies.

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
