hey guys,

i currently have a dying fuel pump.. really need to replace it as its causing abit of strife. I was wondering if i should get another stock one or replace it with an aftermarket one, if aftermarket - any recommendations?

My car is currently running on stock boost (~0.5bar) and only has a turboback exhaust for now (maybe more mods later)..

get an aftermarket one, stock ones(unless u buy them new from nissan($$$), will probably die sooner than later. i got a walbro gss 342 in my car and it more than does the job well on 1 bar boost and goin strong

I've bought injectors and 3, genuine Bosch 044 pumps from these blokes, they do express post and you will find prices hard to beat.

They sell a Walbro GSS342 for $132 - Free postage.

However I'd just get an Bosch 040 myself.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
