Hello All,

I'm building an RB26/30 with 1000cc injectors. Till what whp will I be ok with a single in tank 340LPH Aeromotive Fuel Pump?

My tuner recommends I get two Bosch 044's instead however, these don't come with an in tank option, which would mean I'd have to look into a surge tank, which I don't currently want to do.

Can I run an Aeromotive in tank 340 LPH in series with an external bosch 044 and get best of both worlds?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Have you got a chart showing how much your pump's flow drops off with increase in pressure? Quite a few people have experience with the limits of a single intank Nismo but it will be different for your pump. Have you got it directly wired with a heavier cable from the battery via relay? What is your power target? You can put 044s intank if you want. You could put a surge tank under the car if you don't want one in the boot but if you're not going to track it don't bother.

You can put 2 x 044's in the tank if you want too but space is normally the issue, we are weighing up this option with mine at the moment and leaning towards twin Aeromotives because they are smaller and quiet, newer etc.....

My single 044 ran out of flow at around 360rwkw (480rwhp) on E85 and didnt leave much buffer room incase a filter gets semi blocked etc (which i have recently experienced).

I am not much of a guru with this sort of thing, just going through it at the moment with my car and learning as i go :)

Or run the newer model walbro 415 lph e85 compatible intake fuel pump

Good for easy 400+kw at wheels

This.

You will run out of injector before you run out of pump if you go this route.

I'm not sure yet because this will replace the factory fuel pump on my G37. Will have to check how it's wired but I do remember seeing a relay box under my hood with fuel pump written on it.

Also, is this on 98 or E85?

98 RON

Oh wow, and that's a very high flowing pump. Looks like I'm going to rock two of them then. Do you keep me posted with your learning please. The thing is, it's never been done on a G37 before, so I'm not sure how everything will play out. Let's see.

My tuner recommended me against Walbro, is the 415lph any good?

This.

You will run out of injector before you run out of pump if you go this route.

Guess I'll have to look into it then. Thanks for all your help fellas

I haven't seen the G37 fuel pump assembly, but if it's the same as the 350z/V35 ones only the Walbro 342 style pumps will fit in the factory housing. I would go for the Deatschwerks 300L in that case.

There are a few twin pump housings around for them, but perhaps you could modify the stock housing to fit the new Walbro 400L E85 pump? If your tuner doesn't like them, he is a year behind the times...

Nismo/ tomei will flow around 400rwkw on pump depending on who's tuning the car

The walbro's 400s seem to be the sh!t now, I've been running 2 of them in a surge tank with e85 for about 3000km and no issues so far. They are quiet as hell too

As for putting one in the tank, I don't think they are an easy fit like the 044s.. If my memory is correct Piggaz tried putting one in but opted for a 044 as it was less hassle

I went with 2 bosch 044's in an almost identical setup to Paul aka Piggaz set up. the fuel system should have landed me somewhere in the 1500 mark once completed, for rail, pumps, tank, lines, injectors and new reg. Not too expensive for peace of mind mate.

i like to shop around Joey ;) I have only the fuel rail and reg to purchase. 600 for bosch 2000cc, 300 for pumps, 330 for the tank and fittings. I may just pip the 1500 mark, but not by much mang

You're definitely getting some great deals man.

May I ask where you guys normally install your surge tanks? Another reason I stayed away from it was that many told me you get a lot of fuel smell in cabin?

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
