hi I have a 89 r32 gtr.

Like it says in the tittle i am chassing around 300 to 350 kw at the wheels. I have 2860r-5 turbos and wanted a descent fuel set up to support them. I have just purchased sard 800cc injectors and was wondering what fuel pump to use. At this satge I don't really want to make/ buy a surge tank but i am more after a good intank fuel pump. I have being doing a bit of research, though it has all conflicted each other.

What are the Bosch 040 good for or a 044 mounted in the tank (hp/kw wise) Or can somebody give me another option. I don't want the pump to be maxed out at the kw I am chasing

Cheers

Thanks to all the people who have replied to this.

Is the Bosch 040 good for 600hp or 400hp? I don't want the pump to be maxing out at around 350kw. Is any body using the 040 in a gtr with similar power figures to what I am chasing?

Cheers

according to the specs (4.7L/m) that nismo state for the gtr pump it will out flow a 044 but what it doesn't say is if that is free flow or with pressure.

i just put a 044 intank (R33) and you can barely tell the difference noise wise between it and the stock pump, i used 3 pieces of 25mm fuel resistant PVC tubing opened up and wrapped around the pump and the arm it mounts too.

will nismo in tank support 380awkw?

Put it this way. Twin RS's at anything up to 2 bar on a 2.8 litre stroker and im fine (Fuel pressure gauge in cabin to confirm). Your turbo's are smaller so you will be sweet!

yep, no question, nismo pump is the easy winner. it mounts properly in the stock cradle too which is a problem with other pumps. if they are not mounted correctly the pick-up can be too high resulting in fuel starvation. and the nismo pumps are 276 litres per hour, rated at 3bar (ie stock base pressure).

hmm deff sound like the best in tank option for no dicking around, need to source one now...

i got a bucket of dead walbros... want some spares.....

And my walbro is relagated to lift pump duties upto my surge/044 setup as it couldnt maintain flow above ~50psi rail pressure.

I'd be interested to know what setup a Walbro makes 380awkw with :cheers:

Snowman was/is using a stock R34 GTR pump for 380rwkw, so anything aftermarket is gonig to meet that easily enough

    • 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
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
    • It's been quite the ordeal but hey, at least you figured it out.
    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow
