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 ;)

    • 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!
