So just done ffp on my neo (greddy style) along with the fuel rail so I bought a sard fpr it’s a knock off. Trying to set it a at 43psi without vacuum but it won’t raise or lower fuel pressure. It’s static at about 39psi ? I have it setup like so :

tank>filter>fuel rail>fpr>return to tank. 

Anything i have missed or is it just a bad fpr? I know it’s a knockoff but it’s new and it should work?

What fuel pump do you have?

What size is the return line?

Is there any kinks in the return line?

What size is the outlet of the reg?

Knock off regs is just asking for trouble. It’s kind of important.

Shouldn't use a knock-off for something so important, such as an item related to fuel delivery.

Trust me.. I only speak from experience 

Lol true.. I still have one fuel damper if that would even matter? the damper is about 3/4 inch after the return port on the fpr.

new fpr still not arrived so I went to have a look again.

You havent got fuel going in the out port of the reg? Not sure if it would make a difference or not

Nah the outport is returning to tank. also tried another fpr and gauge and still can’t adjust either way !! wtf I’m f**king annoyed to say the least....

Replace the pump since you have one and eliminate that as a problem. If your new fpr still doesn't show 43 psi get an adapter for your stocker and use that.

yeah I think I will swap the pump out. if no success I will get the stock fpr and try a gauge on it. 

Car was running fine before I changed the plenum. It’s sat for a couple months whilst doing so maybe the battery is weak I’ll check to voltage for the battery and the pump. What should the pump be getting do you know ?

It adjusts down and needle doesn’t fluctuate. Gets to 3 bar and doesn’t get any higher and fluctuates. what’s a good brand fpr? Malpassi any good? 

Nissan

Or if you want to spend more money  - Turbosmart or Tomei (but beware - lots of Tomei knock-offs around.

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
