Hi guys,

ok so on the weekend I installed a Nismo FPR on my r32. I have attached an image of how I installed it. I already had a fuel pressure gauge installed so I know what the old regulator was doing.

So anyway I turned the key on to prime the pump and it goes up to 50psi. I then start the car and it goes down to 40psi and sits there at idle.

Now here is the issue. With the standard reg when I accelerate the pressure increases as the manifold pressure does but with the nismo reg as soon as I tap the peddle pressure goes straight up to 60psi and holds there for a second or 2 then goes back to 40psi at idle. It's not linear like before. I've played with the adjustment screw but that's only for the initial pressure setting.

I took it for a drive and its fine but as soon I accelerate to goes to 60psi and when I WOT it trails from 60psi to 58, 57, 56.

So is this normal? I thought that because it has a vac line it would be linear?

Any ideas guys?

If you are only after 200rwkw, then the stock injectors will be fine with the stock reg. It sounds like the pressure is set a bit high, and the pump is on its last legs.

i hit 85% injector duty cycle on the dyno so i thought why not give them some overhead.

like i said i want a strong 200kw. the pump is only 10 months old so i hope its not that

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
