When you turn the key to the ON position can you hear the fuel pump priming?

priming as in that buzzin sound it does? ugh i didnt take notice when turned the key. but i tried just then and i didnt hear the buzzin it makes :blink: does that mean my fuel pump is buggered..

would anyone have an old fuel pump they are not using so i can borrow and try it in my car to see if thats the problem. if it is im happy to buy it off you so i can drive my baby to get a better pump

It could be the pump or it could be the relay. best to get an auto elec to check it out unless you can find a spare pump easy.

where abouts is the relay located for the fuel pump? i cant find it.

by the sounds of it you fuel pump might have gone mate.....time for a upgrade me thinks :)

there are a few aftermarket ones around.....

r34 has a different wiring stuff thingo (sorry don't know how to explain it properly) wiring socket maybe? but if the dude gives you the wiring stuff as well just need to tap it on your standard one.

are you talking about the whole assembly how the harness is different? or the pump itself? but in any case. a r34 gtr pump will fit , yes or no? lol dont wana be buying something i'll never use

^^ Agreed & going to give you more power potential too.

Also if you get a second hand pump, don't be surprised if you have to pull that bugger out again only 12 months (or 12 minutes) later because it was already nearly worn out.

either pumps are decent upgrades.....i got mine off Habi-bay and it seems to be working well so far....has supported 250 rwkw without any probs

how much does it cost to get a pump fitted? for example the bosche 040 and anyone you recommend?

Most workshops will charge you per labour hour which is normally around the $80 mark.....i had my fuel pump and boost controller fitted for i think $80 and a dyno run to see if it all worked fine and to tune the EBC.....all and all it came up to $80 as it took them roughly 1 hour to do lol...

Call and find what workshops will charge you mate.....

workshops up north: pitlane performance, smooth garage, boostworx, morepowa, fours n more, boosting oz

search them up and call em mate

    • Why not? Since mines been built, I've used low boost maybe 5 times.
    • Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.
    • Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task
    • Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.
    • I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
