What Fuel Pump To Install In My R32 Gtr Making About 250kw At All 4s? Please Tell Me What Will Suit Me Guys


Recommended Posts

hi guys my fuel pump is on its way but i was thinking what fuel pump i should be after, im making about 250kw at all 4s but want to make abit more power later on, what fuel pump should i be after, someone said go for the bosch 040 internal pump but some people are saying go fopr the bosch 044 internal pump, i dont know whjat pump top go for so can yous guys please help me and tell me what i should be going for, i want a pump that can handle more power then mine,

thanks guys

cheers

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.

whats the bosch 023 worth mate, ate they better then the 040 and the 044, and are they good for a 300kw gtr,

cheers mate

i was sort of thinking of the tomei or the nismo but im not too sure as yet

how about u stick with the stock one???

im running my stock one.. makes over 300awkw... not much over.. but still slightly over :D

nar mate dont want a stock one, u will find that the stock gtr pump will giv up sooner or later, i dont really know what to get and its for my internal aswell, please let me know what is good for about 300-350awkw,

cheers

no reason why the other wont just die outta nowhere either champ.

stick with oem. 250 is piece of cake for a stocker.

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.

I've got a after market SARD in tank pump in my GTR producing over 300rwkw

Im upgrading to big single turbo and im gonna run 2 x bosch 044's

You can have my Sard pump for $300 (Only 4000kms old)

Works awesome especially with a nismo fuel regular

let us know if ya interested and i'll pull it out for ya

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.

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
