Just picked up a 2nd hand R33 GT-R pump for my gtst, this is how it came (ignore the pFC):

1. The top feed hose above the actual pump has that little regulator/valve looking thing, which my stock pump doesn't have. What is it? Should I leave it on or just use a straight piece of hose?

2. Also seen in the pic, you'l notice there is no sock on the fuel pick-up tube. How important is it that I get one? The old piece was deteriorated and torn so I removed it. Can I buy one? Where?

:thumbsup:

Non return valve stops fuel draining back into the tank so you shouldn't have to prime before starting.

The fuel filter under the bonnet should stop crud getting to the injectors but the sock would stop it getting into the pump.

Life is better with both things in place.

I have a stock sock off a 33 GTS-t if you want it or you should be able to get a Uni one.

Just as long as it sits in the correct place for fuel pickup.

I tried it in my R31 (now with 33 GTS-t pump) and it didn't work well so I put the R31 strainer/filter on instead.

(was cutting out round corners) :/

    • 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?
