Whoever's fuel system that is in the picture- You have to be very carefull putting hose clamps on pushlock hose/fittings.... it will cut the inside if the hose and lift the hose off the barbs either side of the clamp.... it's more likely to leak putting the hose clamp on!

It's not cheap, but aeroquip starlight hose and fittings have been designed for all sorts of ethanol/race fuels... awsome stuff!

The silly old man did the clamps on the hose thing. I have already removed them and will shove them up his ass at the earlieast opportunity.

just what i was gonna say, bosch do them @ 12v not 14

also you other blokes like marko, you sure you are not getting confused with 040 & 044?

sometimes people do that :P

"Each Bosch 044 inline fuel pump provides 300LPH of flow and operate at 72.5 PSI"

thats a company website trying to sell pumps... they have written that information themselves, and it contradicts the numbers provided by bosch on their website (www.bosch.com.au)

They look stainless..... they're gonna hurt- sharp edges and all! ha ha ha

On the bosch website.....but yes as stated above at 12v

I would expect around 220 (maaaaaybe 240Lph) at 14V

Sounds about right, assuming that flow/voltage are fairly directly proportional you are looking at 245l/hr at 5bar.

I would say most street cars are running about 1.5bar plus 3bar base so would push flow up to 260l/hr... So enough to feed 720cc injectors :P

u are right just had a look - shouldnt always believe what i read :P

Even if it were true marko i would still take the pierburg on noise factor alone. You can hardly hear these things, unlike the swarm of hornets unleashed every time you turn the bosch on.

i luv that sound, like having squealing race brakes or BIG cams :P

My 044 mounted in the tank only ever makes an audible sound when priming...otherwise you can hardly hear it while the car's running

your ecu will have the factory fuel pump controler enabled, so below ~1500rpm the fuel pump voltage/current drops to keep noise down, turn it off and you will be able to hear it again.

You're starting to sound like an old man

"Turn that down you young hooligans"

lol

Thats right, when i had one 044 intank you could hear it but it wasnt as bad as people make it out to be...

...the 2 hanging under the car are a different story

Sound like one? He frickin is one!

Oh and I forgot to mention the Pierburg pumps are a pull/push pump so no prime pump required if you don't need a surge tank

Ah internet sarcasm strikes again lol

The old man stole my seat at superlap and i didnt have the guts to tell off a pensioner :)

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
