Dyno reveals lazy fuel pump. I need one!

[QuickR33Melb]

Boys and girls,

I took my car to be dynoed as it has been running like a sack of sh%# lately at JPC in Thomastown (best guys ever).

My first run revealed 120 kw@wheels for an R33 with a full 3" exhaust, new turbo, cold air intake and boost, thats not very good at all.

Anyway after cleaning plugs, coils and playing around for two hours on the car I managed 140kw@wheels.

I have a lazy fuel pump thats on its way out and the boys on the dyno said that anything higher than 140kw starts to lean the engine out.

So, I need a new fuel pump. Any ideas, prices or places in Melbourne to get one??

I don't need a 500 horsepower pump. Just something for a mildly modified skyline

theres a place in nunawadding that does bosch motorsport fuel pumps for about $200 don't know what their number is but they always advertise in fast fours or hot fours. I'll get the number later if you want.

[QuickR33Melb]

That would be great. If it completely fails on me tonight while I'm driving home from hillside I'll be one unhappy boy

[R31Nismoid]

they wont be the big motorsport ones.

I'd just chase down a second hand GTR pump.

It'll do what you want to do easily.

This is the place - hope they can help out

Thanks guys. Alot of help in a short space of time

[WazR32GTSt]

what about a VL turbo fuel pump? how do they compare to R33 ones or GTR ones? might be easier and cheaper to source than a GTR pump...

(also off topic are you coming to lunch @ nth-west meetup tomorrow Jevan?)

[JET-RB]

there's petro ject in dingley they also have bosch pumps.

Went past JPC the other day, they have some nice cars out front, are you happy with them?

[paulr33]

upi parts in moorabbin, they would have a stock gtr fuel pump, should be fine. would be better than vl turbo pump i think

[QuickR33Melb]

Warren, sorry I missed lunch I will go next time for sure. I'm having alot of people asking about JPC so here are their particulars below. I've been to a few shops and these guys are the best by far. I also have a friend that sells every conceivable part for imports so if you need anything then let me know. (he ended up supplying a GTR fuel pump for me)

They were fantastic. They know turbo cars backward. $88 for the full tune and they seriously spent 2 hours on the car.

[_turtle_]

only 88bux and they cleaned ur plugs etc? thats a pretty good price. whos the contact there?

[QuickR33Melb]

They have a very attractive young girl (on P's) working there called Nicole. She answers the phones. She'll hand you over to the right person $88.00 for full dyno tune (3 runs), cleaned and re-gapped all 6 plugs, cleaned all coils. and did some other bits and pieces
