Fuel pumps provide fuel, thats it.

How the fuel is used/power gained is controlled by the ECU/Turbo/boost etc.

Fuel pumps dont make power, the simply provide the means to make power.

You could put a 1000hp pump in there, wont make a difference

Cheers.

fuel pump and injectors arnt suppose to give u power,

they are a supporting mod so eg.. you upgrade your tubo and wound more boost into it, the new injectors and pump can supply sufficent fuel to your motor

where as i think your stock one will max out at 170kw

Crap! I was planning on getting a bosch fuel pump...thought it was gonna be good for my stock turbo/ECU setup, guess it's just gonna have to be part of the plan leading up to a proper dyno run+ECU tune.

Thanks for dashing my huge power hopes you smartarses

oh, and you can't tune the stock ECU unless you visit one of the R32 Stock ECU tuners - I think there is about 2 in australia.

You can't just rock up to any dyno operator and say "tune my ECU thanks" and come out with 1000hp.

They'll see you coming and take your money..

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
