k i got a gt3582R, 620cc injectors and all the other goodies to make the power im looking for reliably (300+kw) but my walbro 255L/H in tank pump is obviously not going to b up to the task. Ive put it in a position in the tank though which is so good i dont want to remove it for a larger replacement.

So my first question is, what power will this pump run out of huff? 260kw?

And who sells decent surge tanks, does anyone sell the custom fabricated surge tanks on here?

Thanks

Chris.

Yea coz the pick up is in a good spot, understand now?

no I don't understand because the nismo comes on a factory pump bracket that puts the pickup exactly where it needs to be, and where the factory pickup is anyway. Look up pictures of it and you will see what i mean.

I too had a walboro 255lph, and it would not use it for anything over 270rwkw.

ok thanks mate, didnt kno they had their own bracket too. ill check it out thanks

still curious though, does anyone know of any "off the shelf" good looking surge tanks, really dont like those dome looking generic ones u can buy.

ive got a question loosely related.

mafia or nismoid, did you hook the walbro to the standard wiring/running standard voltage and have no issues?

theres been some talk of these pumps not flowing to their spec capacity because of voltage drop, and needing to be hooked up to direct voltage or whatever.

just asking so i know what to expect if i go with a walbro myself.

cool. do you recommend these pumps? they come with filter sock thing. so its pretty much like straight swap for standard minus the bracket.

I installed a walbro a couple of days ago, we used the standard braket, and sat it in the rubber boot in which the standard pump is located. Then we modded (so easy) the standard pickup line to fit the bottom of the walbro so it went back into the same place in the tank...

Didnt have any dramas... I lie, the plastic srew ring on the top of the tank was a bitch to get back on... Couldnt locate the thread.

Other then that, easy install

I'm running a walbro 255 currently... thought I was sitting at around 270 rwkw (old tune, not retuned yet since engine rebuild) but mph at wsid the other week suggests closer to 300 rwkw (12.7 @ 116.7 mhp with alot of traction issues on street tyres so mph should of been higher and time alot quicker lol)

I have the same turbo, 550 injectors and a sard FPR.... but I have no fuel issues what so ever at the moment, only at 15psi till tune though....

I'm replacing mine with a 044 but I'm aiming for 350rwkw + , also I have 740 injectors on standby :)

Well if you had traction issues, are skethy on the MPH then its really not a good judge.

I went 111mph with just 220rwkw back in the day... but that doesnt give much gauge on where the pump is at ;)

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
