Personally i'd stay away from the 040...while it flows well and supports the power easily...the filter design lets it down and in some cases has been known to clog up and cause premature failure...

Don't you mean the bosch 023....

I have one... they are MAD!!!

You have to be careful when installing them because they can suck to the bottom of the tank and then obviously not pump any petrol.

Make sure you cover the positive lead on the pump well aswell, mine was earthing out on the tank.

If u really must go aftermarket.. then go for something direct fit like tomei or nismo.. anything bosch isnt a direct fit and u gotta modify the cradle somehow. even if its an easy mod, its still a mod that u dont have to do with direct fitment pumps

where can i find the 044 internal pump and im after a genuine

Dude 023 is the 044 internal....

You wont find any thing under 044 internal. They are called an 023.

Search for BOSCH 023 in ebay there is one on there at the moment.

I paid $180 for mine plus postage but that was when no one really used them as every one goes by what people say on forums and every one said 040 intank or 044 external. Now there is a fair demand for them price has gone up.

023s are exactly the same as 044 but they are an intank version.

Also MAKE SURE YOU TANK IS CLEAN and you have a good fuel filter.

I clogged mine up with crap due to dirty tank and had to clean it out, made the pump go really load and not push the pressure, was fine after I cleaned it tho.

I ended up getting a piece of mesh (like you would use in your front bumper) folding it over in a half circle like thing and hose clamping that to the bottom of them pump, I then covered that in petrol filter like material, stocking may do but I am not sure if the petrol would eat away at it? That helped a lot but this was only as my fuel filter had never been replaced and I had a dirty tank. Bosch 040 would also have this problem, its only because they have a not very fine metal mesh filter on the bottom and fine dirt etc can get in.

Nismo/HKS/Tomei

Doesn't matter in what order they all do the same thing and are all much better options than the bosch.

You pay for piece of mind that these things are built to perform! :D

Yeah, all depends on how much money you have to spend but yes a bosch 023 will do the trick but if you can pay double then you can get a nice brand name one with a good filter on the back of it and a new cradle and you can also tell all your mates how awesome you are.

I also heard that you can run a bosch 044 with a hose coming off it with the sock/filter thing on the end of the hose and put that in your tank. Not sure if this is true but might be worth looking into.

044 intank with a nice fine filter to prevent any junk getting sucked thru the pump.

very easy DYI whisper quiet and efficient up past 350rwkws on the standard lines.

still runs fine with less the 5ltrs of fuel in the tank.

i want to know from all the people in this thread that have said go the tomei or nismo,

how many of you are running 350rwkws?

any of you?

haha if you find that telling your mates how awesome you are makes your pump work better that's fine but I find that everyone who runs one of the "name" brands always end up justifying their purchase. I've read quite a few threads where people have had their Boschs fail on them and so chose to buy a Tomei because of this. If your spending the money to make your car do 250-350 awkw what's an extra 200 bucks to make sure it gets the fuel it needs??

do you have 350rwkws with a nismo, tomei etc

theres lots of 200rwkw keyboard warriors on here that say you must have a nismo pump cause there so easy to install.

bla bla bla. they flow 276lph bla bla.

simple question who has 350rwkws with a tomei or nismo pump?

im just curious cause i have never heard of any one pushing one that hard.

    • My whp was 418whp and 518hp crank on 98 octane fuel. So decent numbers. 
    • Found a issue, after driving through torrential rain, the drivers side roof drain is blocked and some water ended up in the boot I've parked it up, stripped out the boot, and dried it out with a towel Initial fix was poking a big long cable tie down the drain to unblock it, then poured some hot water and detergent into it to flush out what I could, which now has it working, but I'm assuming it needs a good old fashioned proper "rogering" of the drain holes  Next step is waiting for the trombone cleaner that I just ordered from FleaBay next week Luckily nothing made it into the interior and it is all drying out nicely and the roof drains are working well enough for now I found the same issue with my old NB when I first got that, a couple of broken down leaves and some dirt was enough to block the drains, I did have a trombone cleaner back then, but I cannot find it anywhere, although, going of other times when I buy something to replace something I cannot find, the old one will probably turn up any minute now
    • Will look into the helical front diff thanks.  Sounds like everyone just says keep the rear as is. 👍🏻
    • R33 NA comes as rb25de or rb20e, so either of those, or r34 rb20de
    • I think the figures are pretty accurate as all my other cars are around the right hp readings as have done on multiple dynoes. However they are rwd cars so might mean the difference.    I am running every possible hks part also and a str exhaust … all new ecu. The mod list is endless. 😂 I’m ready for stroker and big turbo if I go that route.
