Bigger lines are usually for carbie-fed cars - ie those without any fuel pressure. With the hammer down on a carb'd car you can quickly empty out a 3/8" fuel line which is why many big HP carb'd cars run 1/2" lines or even bigger. But as Steve said, I've never heard of 600hp or even higher fuel injected cars needing bigger lines.

There was a 1000 hp GTR on Prestige Motorsport's mailing list recently and there is no mention of bigger fuel lines, just 2 044 pumps and 1000cc injectors. It's possible that he's running 2 fuel lines, or maybe the "HKS fuel delivery" is a bigger fuel line, but it's not very specific.

I got some prices today from Repco Autoparts.

Bosch 910 (200L/hr) = $382.99

Bosch 975 (228L/hr) = $517.99

Bosch 984 (228L/hr) = $506.99

Bosch 044 (330L/hr) = $1113.99

I'm looking for an intank pump that can handle ~285rwkw (~200L/hr). I can order a Nismo 17042-RRS40 (246L/hr) delivered from www.greenline.jp for ~$370.

Can anyone suggest some places where I can find these pumps cheaper? As im looking to buy/fit 1 like asap.

Tony, do UAS re-use the old bracket or do they make their own up? And is that $440 installed and including extra fittings? If so that's a very good price for the pump, if you minus 1 hour's labour and ~$50 of fittings.

I'm seriously thinking of making my own bracket, and then give the plans out to anyone else interested in fitting a Bosch pump. I just need some motivation on the weekend, at a time where my fuel gauge is below the empty line.

woa! and to think people wouldn't part with $200 for my perfectly good 910.. silly people. Ended up giving up and just installing it myself :)

I have heard you can get the 910 for under $250 new, but this seems to be "I can get for $xxx, i give you $xxx for your pump".. not sure of the details of exactly where these people were talking about or whether they were full of crap.

The 910 is a 1-2 hour job, which might save you $200 in labour costs. It might be all you need depending on your HP goals. Its an easy job trust me - i'm not an expert.. but worked it all out fine. ..this is basically the install of the 910..its that easy:

044 seems to be a bit more involved, mainly because of the size of the friggin thing...

So the 910 fits straight into the standard bracket im assuming?

What extra parts are needed to make it all "work" ? From what I can see it looks like i'll just need a large clamp to fix it to the standard bracket ? and then connect all the standard parts back to it?

I want to get it all done and hooked up (will pay some if i have to) but at the momemt im getting no where.

Its not a straight fit, but with a hose clamp (as shown) it will be held very tightly into position. The only slightly difficult part was just figuring out a way to get the sock/filter back onto the new pump with the different size connector. I used 2x small hose clamps and a small bit of hose (as shown) to overcome that. After that you just slot the bracket back in, manouver it into place and put it all back together.

Maybe I should right a tutorial? although i think i saw one out there actually...

This thread goes into more detail of how to actually get into the tank.... http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...&threadid=18776

p.s. JimX.. hehe.. i love that site. Just having some fun with Horus here in melb :) If you met him you might spot the likeness..hehe

    • Yeah good luck out there! Will be good to see a mighty GTST going harder than the GTRs
    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
