hey guys would just like to know what i can upgrade my pump to without doing any major modifications. for example could i pretty much plug and play a 32 gtr or 33 gtst pump where the stock r32 gtst pump is? or is there abit of modifying? also would i have to run gtr injectors or after market ones if i ran one of these pumps?

my car is just absolutely stock and fuel pump could be one of the reasons of my power cut out issues so want to rule it out plus might aswell get something abit better.

i just want something a tad better then stock without having to modify anything. let us know what way would be best.

Personally, I wouldn't bother. For what you are running maybe a bosch 040 would be the best recommendation.. That is if you really have a problem with your pump. Have you had it on a dyno and seen what the fuel pressure sits at on load? Have you beefed up the voltage at the fuel pump (relay switched direct feed wiring)? Do the real easy things first before you swap parts out, work smart, not hard. Always start with diagnostics.

I wouldn't know about any others, mine came with a gtr pump and now has a bosch 044 intank. Noisy beastie and could be too much overkill for what you need. Used a walbro in my brothers eb-xr8 that is still going well after three years but would hesitate before putting one on any car I own.

A bosch 040 isn't a straight swap either - you will have to do some bending and or cutting of the pump bracket. If you want a straight swap the nismo ones will fit straight in, or a GTR pump (i think). I ended up using a walbro one which fit onto the original fuel pump/cradle - not perfectly, but without permanently modifiying anything.

If you do end up deciding on an 040 though, I have a brand new, unopened, one for sale...

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • 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
