Yeppers, some oem pumps are well capable of doing the job. Many z32's making 500+hp on stock pumps, however they are getting old, so a new OEM pump is always recommended :)

That's pretty impressive Dean. Are u running a relay on the factory wiring?

Have u tested the pump to see how much more it has got and what it could potentially support in terms of kw?

It was a full factory setup, factory wiring, like it had never been opened.

I've got twin nismos now so I can't compare....

Why did u upgrade your pump? Making more power or for safety factor?

I think I've hit a wall as I cannot source submersible fuel hose with an ID to accommodate the fuel pump inlet which is 15mm. I tried pirtek, gates, speed flow, earls and purple pig.

Gates stock submersible hose in 2 sizes and these only run up to 9.5mm.

Does anyone have any ideas on the best way to mate my fuel sock to the fuel pump? Fuel pump is a push hose fitting and the fuel sock has a female push fitting with an ID of 24mm. The generic fuel hose does infact work in terms of size for ID and OD, however, the outer skin will disintegrate as it sits in the fuel tank.

If I have no other option, I may run speedflow -10 push hose as EFI Performance suggested this and apparently does not break down in fuel (even though speedflow stated to me that it is not rated for fuel submersion.

When I bought my car the previous owner said it had a bosch 044

Had it tuned running 340rwkw no fuel supple issues what so-ever, even went drags 3 times etc

Upgraded last month to a walbro e85 pump only to find it had a stock pump in the tank lol

Its amazing what flow these OEM pumps can support. I might test mine in a bucket and see how many litres it flows over 1 minute...what is the best way to test this though, direct to the battery?

Marko, just cut off some hose off a fire truck. She'll be right mate ;)

how about some seasoned bong hose? Loool

I want to do back2back flow testing with the OEM pump and pierburg. I reconnected the OEM pump but the trigger switches it off after 5 sec.. can I connect the pump to the battery direct as I want to measure flow into a bucket over a period of 1 minute so that I can calculate LPH.

Update time.

I decided to flow test my OEM pump direct from the battery and was very surprised by the results.

Over a period of 30seconds, it flowed 2.7ltrs which equates to 324LPH.

The pump even ran low and started blowing bubbles as I couldn't fill up the 2 ltr bottle it was sitting in quick enough.

Am I getting a higher voltage / power supply from the battery, rather than the fuel pump harness located in the boot? How can the pump flow at such a rate?

Off the return, that way the fpr will hold it at the correct pressure/restriction. It should be a reasonable indication of the flow as long as there are no other restrictions. Eg. Blocked fuel filter crimped line ect.

just wondering

are stock 34GTT pumps enough to use as lift pumps for a surge tanks with two 044s. This is for 350kw+ on e85

or would using the Deatschwerks 300lph as a lift and two 044s be overkill/enough?

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
