So I've been asked by a few of you what makes this pump E85 compaible unlike others, here are two reasons;

A lot of pumps mainly BOSCH unit's are used with E85 today, in most cases there life cycle will be around 500hrs (w/ E85), these Walbro's have an expected lify cycle of 3000 hours (6x more)!

Secondly, if a pump design has exposed electrical terminals it is certailny not to be used with E85 fuel.

There are more but that's the two main ones.

Would there be issues getting the pump now at 280hp then down the track it wouldn't need changing when the car is doing around 400hp?

Hey!

I don't see any issues with that, only thing is in the short term the pump would be overkill for your set-up.

It would still function correctly.

Just ordered one via the paypal button, however on the pec's online website it is 199? Why is 220 a SAU special but cheaper on your website??

Thanks

Thanks for your purchase.

We had not yet updated the site for new Walbro pricing, but we have done so now for the E85 unit. $210 + delivery online.

dam i should have got it from you.
would have saved myself 20 bucks.
ah well.. :(
next time.

So anyone got any proof of this pump holding over 500hp would really like to know as i'm going to be borderline 500hp after my new setup goes on

Jem reckon 350kw is borderline for the pump so i'm real curious

Cheers

      Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.

      I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>

      I used to do that (sills with rubber jack block).. ... then I got side skirts, and there's no way for the jack to actually work there, the jack pad itself on the jack is too big. Is the answer to use a... smaller (?) jack? Hmmm.

      I have too much trauma from every skyline I've ever seen having crushed jack points/pinch welds lol.    Yep, works 100%, it's what I use when I'm using the quick jack. Don't know why I can't also bring myself to do the same thing when I'm using a jack. I blame the skyline PTSD.
