I never ran the single Walbro (I modified the pump housing to fit a Tomei gtr pump) because I listened to the heresay in the forced induction section. I have since changed my tune with regards to them. For all but the highest pressure setups Walbro's work and fit perfectly. Any more flow will require a complete fuel system upgrade.

Save your cash and time and fit what works, but you will still need to rewire the power to the pump with a relay.

I think Cam was hoping to save a buck and run the factory pump. Of course if it cant supply the fuel he needs there will be another tune on the cards which will negate any savings.

I don't think we did this on mine. Seems to be running ok? Am I going to hit fuel cut down the track?

Actually no, I wanted to see what we could get out of a plug and play ECU with stock fuelling.

I'm thinking slightly differently and thinking I should do injectors and fuel pump before the tune.

Is the pump body in the M35 the same as the V35/G35/350Z?

The filter is the same....the body ain't....we have a return system.

Not a bad idea to do injectors and fuel pump first....IMO there is no way you will max out the standard fuel system with the stock turbo/boost even with dump exhaust and SP ect!

Probably, but my plan is to get the supporting mods in place then do the turbo. But if it can be tuned to stop maxing out the injectors at least i know i dont have to hurry.

Is our pump body the same as anything?

Just curious. Thanks for the info.

Where did you get your injectors from Scotty? Much difficulty making them fit? (I gather the Xspurt's aren't drop in, where as the Deschworks are).

I havent tried them, only the newer Bosch/ID/Xspurts are going to give you the smooth idle though. Be wary of other large injectors. I think I can get the Xspurts for around $100 each from the wholesaler, Injectors online.

Any reason you went from ID's to Xspurts?

They are the same thing, all based off bosch bodys and flow matched apparently. Mine idles better now than with the 610's in the rail. They drop in if you remove the spacers but you will have to wire/crimp the new plugs in.

Ryan, looking at this pump the sock pickup is the same as Walbro, as is the power plug. Perhaps this deatschwerks IS going to fit ok... Buy it and try?

Another (interim) option is to replace the stock pressure reg with an adjustable one. I bought one for $60 & put it in today. The OEM pump is now supplying more fuel courtesy of higher pressures & I had to back the AFR's off a fair bit across the mid range. And at the top end they look pretty good now instead of a bit lean.

I haven't had enough time to tune it properly, but looking very promising so far.

Cheers Scotty. Thats what I was thinking, it looks the same as the Walbro, so does the Aeromotive, hence the question. Might organise that shortly.

Are the $60 ebay FPRs any good or do you need to spend the couple of hundred to get a Sard etc?

Be careful running much higher than stock pressure, the pump flows less and will only supply a dribble at over 80psi. What boost are you running?

Stock boost atm. Static pressure is about 52psi, but it's a rising rate FPR so should increase to about 65psi at my current boost level. I won't up the boost to more than about 16psi anyway, so this setup with stock pump & injectors could do me until I need a new turbo (providing AFR's are able to adjusted to cope with the extra 3 psi when the time comes).

Sard would be better I think, but I didn't really know if this would work out as good as it did, so I didn't want an expensive item sitting in the shed unused. Having said that, I was impressed with the feel of mine, very solidly cut from billet aluminium. The hose clamps were crap tho...

You don't always need to buy name brands to achieve a good result.... and sometimes you do. It's just knowing when :happy:

There's a heap of fake sard regs around so be careful. I'm using an SX reg and it's been fine.

Rising rate regs usually increase the fuel pressure double the boost so you could be up there, do you have a gauge in the dash?

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
