hi all,

just wanting to know what differences there may be between the nismo fuel pump and walbro fuel pump for a R33 GTST?

i see that i alot of members are using walbro fuel pumps but im curiuos to know is there a difference in they way they perform or is it just the fact that it says nismo thats why its so much more expensive?

any info please, even if there are links which i couldnt find

thanks

chris

walbro costs about 160, flows 255lph uses standard cradle, standard filter, standard wiring and requires about of soldering and mucking around to make it fit in the standard cradle, not bad if you get a genuine one but its probably worth paying the little extra for the bosch

tomei costs about 429,i think theres a few places that sell them cheaper in the 390s, flows 248lph, comes with its own cradle, wiring, and filter its simply pull in pull out, very reliable designed to run of the 12v instead of the 14v the walbro uses, i find it better than walbro i had but pretty pricey

hope that helps

You can also look at the HKS pump kit which I think is 240L/H. The Aus Distributor has them on sale until the end of the month for $400 I think. You can email them to find out at [email protected]

I thought the HKS fuel pump was closer to 250L/hour which is good for 550HP at the engine. Bonus of the HKS pump is that it comes as a BOLT IN kit with strainer and new fuel tank seal. I put one in my R34 a few years ago and haven't looked back since.

Here's a pic of the HKS kit.

Cheers

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
