I made 370+rwkw with a Nismo pump and Nismo 740cc injectors, as have many others.

You will be fine.

The nismo intank will be enough for you wont have any problems great pump if dont want to go external surge tank setup.

Thanks guys. Do you know what the Nismo pump is HP rated to or how many LPH it can flow in comparison to the 040?

A few that I have found on the net say they are Nismo fuel pumps for GTR's, I am assuming this will have no problem fitting one like that in my GTS-T? When installing would I need to drill out any restrictor to get the max flow out of it like I did on the Bosch, or can I just install as is?

Does anyone know where I could pick one up for a reasonable price in Melbourne, saves me waiting for one to arrive in the post

Even though you were using a 040, but is the consesus still that a Bosch 044 mounted intank will die a premature death if using E85?

Very curious as I'm running a 044 intank and I want to switch to E85 but just wondering if anyone has ran E85 since the last post and had good results :thumbsup:

Thats not to say every Bosch pump be it 040 or 044 will die using E85, I was just speculating on why mine failed but I don't know for sure. Maybe somebody who has been using these pumps for prolonged periods can share their experiences

been using 044 in e85 for 1 year now no problem.

Do you have your 044 intank? I know its meant to be an inline fuel pump but can it be installed intank? My friend has a spare one thats all and I can get it tonight, if I could do it that way at least I could use my car until the Nismo arrives

go the nismo pump brent

Cheers Hamish - I will try and source one from Japan, hopefully it doesn't take too long to get here. Any ideas of the usual delivery times from RHD?

Nup I have my nismo intank and my 044 is mounted inline externally with my surge tank.

I have just picked up a Brand new 040 tonight for an awesome price so at least now I will be able to get the car back on the road.

I am still intending on getting a Nismo pump down the track its just right now getting the car on the road ASAP was my number 1 priority.

I will drain what is left in the tank tomorrow (United fuel) just as a precaution, as the fuel pump had problems shortly after using that fuel from that particular station (i'm not blaming the fuel or the station I am just being cautious). I am also under the believe that the United blend might have a higher ethanol content then the advertised E85 as I've heard it is often around the E90 mark & the guy at the servo stated that often it is E90. Going by that theory is it possible that a 90% ethanol blend with only 10% unleaded might have seized my pump due to lack of lubrication? I might be completely wrong with what I have just said but its just a thought..

Anyhow, after putting my pump in tomorrow I shall start with a fresh batch of Caltex E-flex which will generally have a lower ethanol % and see how I go

I will report back after using it for a while and let people know whether the same thing happened or not

Brent, ID1000's, Nismo intank, 400rwkw - Trent said no issues what-so-ever.

As for United, Braeside has varied between 83-85% Ethanol over the last couple months, seems quite consistent :) My sensor has yet to read anything higher than E85

Caltex has been bang on E70 for ages, sensor never read any different except for i period during winter last year when it went into the 60's, but never seen it change from E70 since and i've been on United for about 3 tanks.

Daz: Aren't we running similar setups? why so hardcore? You didn't need to change the lines either, standard will cope fine.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
