I tried searching the forums for this but all I could find was people selling their GTR pumps so thought id try asking here.

My car will be receiving some new turbos and a PFC soon, and the next step I will be looking at is upgrading the fuel system.

Ive got injectors sorted, but dont know which way to go with a pump.

I want a straight swap so no messing around, and the nismo items etc from places like greenline seem to want around $500 so I think they're out of the question.

I think ive read a bosch 044 pump is direct replacment and can handle around 550hp, is this true or is it an external pump? where would be the cheapest place in brisbane to source one?

My last option was a walbro pump but know nothing of model numbers or fitting details, but people claim to buy these for around $150 or am I reading US websites or something? ;)

I'd get a Tomei or Nismo pump - fits straight in & has the flow you'd be after but your looking at about $400-500. The Bosch 044 is cheaper but depends if mucking around with it whether its worth it. I personally went with the Tomei.

Its a GTR so surely a extra hundred bucks is worth it to get a straight replacement.

Cheers,

If you're getting a workshop to do the work, Jap name brands work out to about the same as a Bosch after messing around with filters, and wiring in new plugs etc. I used a Nismo and it dropped in easy as.

As Penfold said - it's a GTR - you don't make many (reliable) performance enhancements for under $500 dollars on these cars.

i wouldnt be mucking around with bosch pumps unless you need huge fuel flow for 700hp...

get the nismo direct fot pump.... you will pay nearly the same for after market bosch by the time you fit it and it wont fit as nice....

cheers...

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/

      Yeah, I guess its pretty easy to get to if this doesn't work. Just wait till next oil change and pull it out. I am going to have to do the oil pan gasket soon and thought I'd just replace it while I was there.  Thanks

      All that matters is you're safe and you were able to type that post. Hopefully heaps of parts you can recover for the next shell.
