yeah 044 is external, the nismo ones i've seen for >600 so they're out. 33 GTR pump will drop straight in but i'm expecting Nissan to give some sort of shit pricing.

What trouble did you have with the 040 Abe? Hardest part of the install looks like positioning it close enough to the bottom of the tank.

sscond hand gtr pumps go for $100-$200, modify the cradle a bit, and youre sweet. can buy brand new walbro pumps for about $160 from ats, basically the same to fit as gtr pumps, minimal mods and it goes right in.

Yep I highly recommend the Walbro 255lph - had one in my S15 and my R34. The 040 I had in the S15 sucked up silt off the bottom of the tank and blocked, then failed.

Pumps with socks (like the stock pump and the Walbro) are better designed for Nissans IMHO.

Also, got camber? I have some camber arms ordered to address the problem, but it looks pretty slammed at the moment :D

haha ill take this stagea anyday!!!! http://www.discountusedcars.com.au/used-ca...ea/3483209.aspx

Anyone know roughly what a 33 GTR fuel pump is worth? Or should I just drop in a 040.

shit balls. thats crazy.

are you feeling the blue or the beige? im leaning towards the blue at the moment.

getting them to fit is f**king simple if you have a dremel and hose clamp. i was a bit confused when i did mine, but then i looked at went "ooooooh", 30 minutes later it was in the tank.

+1

i rate the walbros, very simple to install, and they do their job well. there's a lot of mixed opinions around other areas of the forum on these, but we chose it over the bosch for its similarities to the std setup. installed, tested, and proven good performer.

fuel pumps arent hard to install if your not afraid of modifying the cradle, getting a few cuts on your hands from the fiddly bits around accessing the tank, and of course inhaling petrol fumes :D

some like to go that bit further and rewire for better voltage

would look even better with some 25mm spacers ;D

only concern I'd have with the wallbro pump is whether or not it flows more than the stock gtr pump - i know this isnt much of an issue till u go over 300kw but I'm leaning towards the nismo (125% flow rate) rather than a bosch

what splits are u getting steve? type R's ?

-D

the stag has had an 040 for 4 yrs now, no issues.

the rb26 sedan has an intank gtr pump and fitting an external walbro 305lph unit - $160 good price

040's are around 190 but you can get copies for around 100

    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
