Just about to fix up the install of my noisy GTR fuel pump into R33 GTST.

It's wierd mine is the same noise at idle and reving. You can notice it hissing very loudly at idle but once driving you cant hear it so much cause of wind noise and exhaust etc. Most say there is a dual voltage on them so at idle it is quiet. I cant see any changes to the wiring etc.

Also considering going a Tomei.

Just wondering if the both pumps should sound about the same if mounted correctly? If so I will stick to the GTR pump.

I see a lot of threads about noisy GTR pumps.

From what I can see they are virtually the same pumps (Tomei and GTR) but mounted differently?

cheers

Cheers Birnie. I have the new GTR one ready to go in though. I would have to wait for the Tomei. I had a closer look - I reckon they are actually the same pumps. Has anyone taken off the rubber on the Tomei and seen what is underneath?

Whereabouts are you now Birnie? You still coming down to Syd?

Thanks for the offer.

the tomei one in the GTR and the S13 are both noisier than stock GTR, the tomie pump in the GTR one is less noticeable though as there is more material in the car between the driver and the pump.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
