Hi guys,

Just want to know if anyone has ran a Bosch 040 in tank fuel pump? If so, are they any good? It's gonna go in a Gtr witch will be pushing about 280 - 300 kw, or is there a better pump?

Hope u guys can help.

I know its not the help you were expecting. But it's a start.

Lol...

040 or 044 are fine in the tank and will work well for that sort of power :)

044 can run in-tank.

Both 040 and 044 will require modification to the bracket to get it to fit, it gets strapped to the bracket with a metal hose clamp.

Other options are Walbro 255L/h and Walbro 400L/h pumps which are smaller and quieter.

Also the Nismo in-tank which is a direct replacement without modification, it's a bit $$$ though compared to the others.

If going for a Walbro, look up the tutorial on here for "Fuel pump Direct Feed Rewire", they are more affected by the voltage drop problems in the OEM wiring than OEM Pumps and Bosch pumps.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
