I believe its quite close if not the same as the Nismo pump, given they have supported 380rwkw before.

although its anyone's guess after 10 years as most people have fuel pump issues once you get to the '10 year' or so with any skyline. :)

Well yes and no mate. For mild mods you should be totally fine...

However it always pays to get the car onto a dyno, check AFR's & fuel pressure just to be sure it is indeed all A-OK.

I mean it should be, but nothing is ever certain when dealing with 10yr+ old pumps. Often people change then just for piece of mind as Nismo pumps are only $300 or so

Also nismo speclist here states Nismo fuel pump, flowing 4.6 l/min at 3 bar pressure, has 25% more flow than factory pump. This gives us a figure of 4.6/1.25 = 3.68 l/min, or 220.8 l/hour.

standard 34 GTR pump is no where near a nismo pump. nismo pumps are 276l/ph (same across 32/33/34). standard GTR pump are 195/lph (again same across 32/33/34). You can get a bit more out of them with a direct power feed as they flow a bit more at higher voltage but they are a long way from a nismo (flows 50% more).

If the GTR factory pump can make 380rwkw/20psi (Snowmans car did, everyone assumed aftermarket pump, which it turned out not to be).

It can't be flowing 195L/ph.

My point was it would most certainly appear that what is on the Japanese spec sheet is perhaps not what is going on in reality.

Someone have both handy? Would make for an interesting test! :merli:

^ Now that's the kinda shit I'm talking about.

70psi its flowing ~235L/hr. 40ltr/hr extra @ 70psi is hardly just a "bit more" via voltage :)

Clearly the Nissan OEM is spec'd down with ~250L/ph @ base pressure.

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
