I run a non ethanol 400lph walbro instock R32 GTR position, has been in for almost a year now sits there corroding away... I mean dorment for months at a time as the car doesnt get used alot.

Has no problems pumping 400kw on stock pressure with id2000's

  • 4 weeks later...

I got a walbro e85 450lph pump and wired it with thicker cables via a relay to get full 14volts

Had it tuned the other day on e85 and it seemed to run out of puff at around 360-370rwkw....didn't have time to check it out yet, I'm going to double check the voltage at the pump and give the sock a clean after a few tanks of ethanol incase it get clogged of shit

Anyone had this issue? My battery is in the boot so the power cable is short, also noticed the pump is very quiet, is this normal?

Any suggestions guys?

I have the 416lph and im at 360kw so you should be able to get enough fuel with the 450lph..

I had a 20A fuse protecting mine and it blew after 1000ks so it must be pulling 20-25A, 2.5mm wiring all the way to the pump would be sufficient however I would prefer to use 4mm for the bulk of it and you should bypass the standard plug through the lid.

    • 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.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
