Hi guys,

How many RKW can a stock r33 GTS-T fuel pump handle?

I currently have installed on the the car:

GReddy FMIC

Splitfire coilpacks

Cold air intake system with pod filter

Straight though 3.5" exhaust

boost controller running 10 PSI

I purchased a power FC recently and I will be installing it and sending my car for tunning soon, but I was wondering, should I be looking at upgrading my fuel pump at this stage?

I am assuming from what I've read that I should be getting around 190 RKW (I will be winding boost up to 12 PSI), can the standard fuel pump handle this much?

Can the standard fuel pump handle these mods with boost wound up to 12 PSI?

CHeers guys

not sure exactly, but why spend all those $$$ and hoping for that much power without spending the extra $300 for a fuel pump ???

also when you choose to go further its already done, gtr pumps and some of the aftermaret ones aren't too expensive and can be DIY

do it for peace of mind

i made 190rwkw on 10psi in my old 33. i had similar mods only i had a safc2 instead of pfc. i had 3" zorst, hybrid fmic, r32 actuator (10psi), and safc. made 190.8rwkw on created motorsport dyno.

change ur pump and ull find the car wont lean out on top end and you should see 195-200rwkw on the stock turbo and 10-12psi of boost.

IMO i would leave the boost at 10psi and tune. see how it goes. dont wind it up to 12 as a standard turbo wont like that for too long and will eventually shit itself. if u plan on a bigger turbo soon then go on 12 and see how long it lasts.

    • I also used Knox driveshafts when I the slip yoke T56 to the 3bolted TR6060 type. I believe I was one of his first jobs as it literally changed hands when I was there, started by the old owner and finished by the new. Everyone seemed pretty great about it. So wasn't shy/seemed pretty knowledgeable when dealing with weird custom people like me.
    • Just a reminder orange park was cool back in the day   and drifting the main circuit was even cooler   f**k I miss that car  
    • We used Knox Drive shafts years ago when we were doing gravel rally, good guy but I heard it had changed hands? He's got a lot of stuff and is miles cheaper than GJ and so on. He used to have a lathe setup with a MIG torch on the tool holder so he could get the uni welds just right, quite a clever guy. I just got a driveshaft done for my sequential installation and that was through Balancing Services Australia in Preston, they did the Gibson cars in the old days. New genuine CV's, billet yoke, new centre bearing and chome moly shaft was $2k.
    • Thanks for sharing that mate, I've got a couple of spares on the shelf but all the unis are tight....will give old mate a shout. BTW are you sure it wasn't just a $400 paint job? Any detail of what they replaced (cut/reweld?)
    • Yeah I saw that about the US Q50 recently, apparently it was shown to Inifiniti dealers (probably to help with their depression about the cars they can sell). Seemed like a really obvious step to me, the platforms are very similar in many ways. Even if there aren't many people who actually put the money up it should really help with image/reputation. What hasn't been clear anywhere if that is a V38 model of if they are just going to add the trans as an option in a new model year. What they did with the Z from 370z to "Z" is just weird so I'd be surprised if they released this as a V38. Great news for me to have an option; it is far from confirmed that I can get any decent track sessions through the auto so having a manual I can swap to is great.
