Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Nismo fuel pumps are only 275lph or something silly. Sure they bolt in but thats about it. 450lph walbro pump will also cost ~150 bucks less IIRC. If the R33gtst fuel pump mount setup is similar to the R32gtst it's a peice of piss to modify it to fit, though getting to the tank may be harder due to 33's being less likely to combust in a rear end accident.

You could probably easily go smaller injectors (720cc?) and shave off a hundred bucks. Also make sure you buy side feed injectors to suite your fuel rail, with the right size holes etc.

Really need a FPR? Making 300kw's here without one, but maybe there's different stuff on the GTR fuel system?

I wouldn't double the tuning, maybe add only 50%, for flex. You're basically getting two tunes in there. That's assuming you have no issues however, which can quickly add up unfortunately. I mean, best case, just a 98 tune, 500 bucks maybe. Worst case, things to wrong, flex tune, 2000 bucks isn't out of the question, so be ware.

you're also just missing little stuff. Turbo gaskets, new studs, fittings for Ethanol sensor and the like can add up to a few hundred bucks

You'll need to figure out how you're going to get the car to the tuner aswell, Everything you need to do is easy enough to DIY at home (and... satisfying to do, i'd recommend it), but with bigger injectors the car will be undrivable unless you can get the tune adjusted for the injectors. Not sure how easy haltec is to modify

Not compatible? So Walbro over Bosch 040?

If you say so. You've done it recently.

yeah, the Walbro pump is E85 ready and as Pete said flows more than nismo pumps.

It can be fitted in tank too (just like mine)

Yeah, budget for at minimum 2k in tuning costs with eflex

R33 fuel tank is completely different to R32, just FYI.

Not sure how simple it is to mount a walbro/040 in tank in an R33

well as long is its not mounted to the tank floor it'd be easy enough :woot:

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
