Intrested in your 040.

How hard to put this pump into a 32 GTR, where could I get the parts and bracket required as you state that this does not come with one.

Should there be no major problems fitting it then I will take it.

Ian,

Not 100% on the 32 GTR, but here is a DIY I found for a R32 GTST.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/In...mp;hl=bosch+040

Shouldn't be too much of a difference between the two models I believe.

I used some pipe clamps and bit of rubber hosing without too many dramas, took me about an hour all up.

You can use the current bracket in your car.

More like you agreed to sell it to me then reneged at the first opportunity you got.

We had a deal mate. At no point did I say I wasn't going to buy it, just because I missed your call is a piss-poor excuse to pull out of it.

no you missed our arranged meet time at my mate's place. i don't live in the area anymore and took the morning off and waited 4 hours only for you to stand me up. i called you and sent you a text without a reply until 3 hours later.

if you decide to wake up with a hangover and not show up at the arranged time and place, then that is your problem. you are right, at no time did you say that you weren't going to buy it - however a no show on your part without notification is clearly rude and i simply assumed that you were no longer interested.

it's my fuel pump and i'll decide whom i sell it to, you wasting my morning is enough for me not to sell it to you.

Mate, you weren't there for me. You had previously stated that you would be there by coincidence on other business so don't make out that it was me that asked you to be there and I left you standing there with nothing to do. Where you were was actually nowhere at all near where I live and I had said I was happy to meet you whenever, wherever so just because I didn't make it there on the morning didn't mean I couldn't make whatever journey necessary to meet you. I have a car with free petrol so it really wouldn't of bothered me.

What seems more likely to me is that one of your mates decided he wanted to buy it, so you decided you'd renege on the deal we had made and use this as an excuse.

you agreed to be at my mate's place prior to 12:00, i get a text from you saying that you slept in at 15:00.

i had sold the gauges to Josh (Turbo 33) whom was polite enough to send me a text that he was on his way, he had come early to buy the gauges and i could have easily gone done other things had i known you weren't going to show.

how is the fact that you failing to show, return my call and replying to my text is supposed to be an indication that you still wanted the item? get real mate, i was at his place clearing out my items and had the pump waiting for you right till 13:00, you make it out that i am the rude one by selling it out under you and i do apologise for doing so, but you are equally at fault for not notifying me that you were not coming and if an alternative arrangement could be made.

you have to come to understand that i had other buyers who were on hold because i told them you were coming to get it. if our deal fell through (which was my choice to make in this case) then they would be next in line.

regardless this no longer concerns you, your actions still show that you have not matured one bit.

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • 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.
