R32 Gtr Long Term Love, Now Project

[r32-25t]

Been a bit slack the last couple of weeks but have been doing a lot of parts gathering and here is the result of my collecting so far, after working out the fuel system wasn't going to be up to the job I decided to go all out

[r32-25t]

First thing to get fitted was the kit the tank hat belongs to 

It comes with a baffle to help prevent the fuel surge that's common in these cars

with a bit of wiggling it slides into the tank and clips in where the original pump does

and holds two walbro 450 pumps that will be staged and the pump and hat assembly ready to go in to the tank, the kit also comes with a new sender for the gauge

And here it is once it's all fitted and ready to goand all the crap thats no longer needed

[Duncan]

that is an awesome setup....solves so many annoying problems.  are you happy with how will the new baffle/mount fits into the tank's original plastic holders to stop everything moving?

[r32-25t]

There's is a little bit of movement once it's all clipped in but nothing to be concerned about, I had to remove it back out of the clip when I dropped a nut while installing it and there's no way it's coming out by itself

A big problem I found when using the -8 version (also can be optioned with -6) is you need to do some trimming 

[Duncan]

Good to know.....and I'm not surprised there are space problems with -8, there is f**k all space between the top of the tank and the boot 

[r32-25t]

I don't think I'll need to trim much and so far the cover fits back on but will se once everything is in and plumbed

Holy moly, it's getting serious.

[Piggaz]

-8 FTW.

-6 return lines are too small!

[Anfanee]

Can the cover still go over the top with the -8?

[r32-25t]

Yeah it does 

[WantGTR]

This looks like a great setup. well done. What rail is that?

[r32-25t]

It's a hypertune one, had the option of polished or black and decided I'd like to have it blend in a bit

[r32-25t]

Speaking of the rail I fitted that yesterday but first I fitted the new injectors which are a 1250cc with the stainless internals all 6 fitted into the rail and ready go into the car and fitted to the engine 

[r32-25t]

Which also required a new fuel press regulatorso I went with an ever reliable turbosmart one 

and mounted in the car, it was nice of Nissan to supply a bolt hole in the perfect spot 

[r32-25t]

Went shopping today

[r32-25t]

Spent quite a bit of time over the last couple of days doing the fuel lines from front to back, it starts as a -8 from the tank and runs to the engine bay into the fuel filter, where it then splits into twin -6 and heads up to either end of the fuel railthen comes out of the center of the rail to the pressure regulator I used the port where the pcv use to be for the vacuum signal and the original port for the pressure reg now only does the the map sensor 

[r32-25t]

Had to trim a little bit to get the hoses on to the top hat and also ran all new wiring for the 2 fuel pumps and fuel gauge and after the cover was put back on with all the wiring tapped up it looks like it was done by Nissan
