Same here, Nismo lift, 2x044s, surge tank, twin entry rail, ID2000s, lines front to back etc etc.

My mates GTR made high 500awkw before they put a 3rd one in. Now makes 720awkw :P

Well thats a little comforting!

You should be able to fit 3 in (I've got 3 in mine), how is it currently setup?

Nismo lift into surge and both 044's mounted on the surge. I was discussing with Steve today that IF it comes to it we might have to make a bracket and mount one next to the surge. Thing is how do we merge the 3rd pump into the 2 lines? Hmm?

^^^ with any luck I will have the results on Friday arvo. The good thing about this is there will be two maps done.... 98 and E85. Same dyno, same tuner, same setup 1 day apart.

I did a 98 map and one for avgas mix same dyno about 25mins apart. dont remember injector dc tho.

Went from 420rwkw @ 19psi to 475rwkw @ 24psi. And then we picked up on the oil problem that resulted in a bent crank...

RB30 crank. Nothing special. The workshop that fitted the engine here in Tassie hooked the oil cooler lines backwards so oil was pumped to the wrong side of the filter relocation kit and things were a little starved of oil.

Thats what I said. When its marked "in" and "out".

Its a shame as the engine was going to make some good power. The engine was built and shipped here so only needed to be fitted. I was going to fit it myself but didnt have the time. I wish I made time now. lol

Its been sent back to the builder for a new crank and whatever else is needed to get it up and running again.

Next tune will be on E85. Thats why im interested to see what everyone else is doing.

If I need a 3rd 044 then so be it. :)

Ok so Paul and I were talking about this in depth tonight.

We are both concerned about max flow for big power but the empty surge tank thing is a huge concern aswel so we will test that first

We are going to take the pump off and test the flow properly, we will post up accurate results (will be on e85) as it seems no one else has this info.

There is another option from 3 or even 4 044's. I use 2 x Pierburg pumps on my GTR. out of 1 dash 6 line (my return from my reg) at 40psi I get 12.5 liters a min. The also are a sucker and a pusher so no need to have them fed by other pumps. Has seen around 610rwhp with no dramas at all. They are ethanol/methanol friendly as well.

I actually have no surge tank, but have 2 x Dash 10 lines feed into my tank with strainers connected directly to the fuel line.

Obviously if I have descent G's and under a 1/4 of a tank I will have issues but until then I can hold it flat for ages and not have a drama.

Always handy if you are towing a trailer, up a hill in the sand :)

does anyone run a low level switch in their surge? if there was a spot inch or so above pickup connected to a simple warning light might give piece of mind down the strip?

i think on circuit it would be a good idea , but just for strip i reckon u have some massive problems if u can empty ur surge in 11 secs or less

Here is a new issue. Over filling over the surge tank. Now having 2 044's feeding the engine not all the fuel is going to be used. The fuel heats up and expands..... Has anyone split a tank due to excessive pressure?

There is a thread on the pommie forum about this. The line back to my main tank from the surge is the same as the incoming return..... Maybe I should have made it a few sizes bigger!!! BAH!

i have a small tranny cooler from super shit in my return line, works well. before that the pump used to start cavitating on hot days after half an hour or so of light driving, now it takes a really really hot day for it to do it.

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
