thought id share my new surge tank with everyone, it houses a 044 inside it which will keep it quiet and take up less space. will be mounting it up soon!

will be using the standard 260RS fuel pump as lift pump & the 044 as the main pump. both will have the direct feed from the battery.

044 is a dinosaur pump, there are much better flowing intanks around now, and for less coin.

Ditch the stock pump, it is too old. A new (genuine) Walbro is under a hundred.

Seems the pump will take up most of the space - how much fuel will it hold?

I'm using the 044 cause I already had 2 sitting here, walbro's aeromotive's ect aren't the be all end all pumps. 044 is proven to work for what I need so why get a over kill pump? I stumbled across a comparison test done by a us tunning shop

They sent all the raved about pumps for independent testing and the results show that 044 isnt as bad as u may think

got a walbro intank pump custom surge and the old tested tried and proven 044 powers mine along fine on e85. just make sure you hard wire them with a trigger relay still so they get correct voltage for maximum flow

That's the plan mate, the 8g wire has already been run through the car to the back. Just have to connect it all up and fit the tank! Should all b sorted by sunday, how much power u makin on e85 on the single 044

Edited by GTR260

338rwkw on 17 psi bit more to come sorting out boost control see if I can get to hold 19 should easy see 350

Nice, is that with standard rail pressure? Or have u bumped it up a bit?

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
