hmmm i got 294 hp running a HKS 2535 pumping out 17 psi on my R33 would there be a problem?

they said they max out at like 400hp so it sounds like you would be sweet

i'v got one on the way and i would only be pushing like hopefully 260rwhp when im finished getting everything i need so i should be sweet to hey

my mates soarer made 440rwhp on dyno with one walbro 255 and no problem in past 3 years.

In america the yanks (mostly supras and gto's, etc) absolutely love the walbros and dont even bother with bosch, these are big hp and big budget cars, they use like 4 walbros intank rather than going bosch or anything else. These guys run big workshops and swear by walbro on every car so why the bad name around here? Dont buy cheap ebay copy shit ones and you might be suprised :(

i used to love the walbro's but after having a spate of them unable to crack 200rwkw latley (last november) i have been sworn against them, 3 were bought from a large victorian speed shop and the other 2 from tweak it (probably all the same batch)

fitting 040's fixed the issue on all 5 cars.

Most people here on Okinawa run Walbro's with no problems. I have twin walbro's in tank and have had no problems for over a year now, and I ran a single one at over 400rwhp a couple of years prior to that. That pump is still in the tank along with another one. There has been a rash of the fake ones popping up though. A lot of reputable dealers get them to distribute and don't even know they are fakes from what I've heard.

      Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By sonicii · Posted

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together
