Yep it fits in the bracket with the assistance of cable ties or better, hose clamps. A bit of nitrile rubber sheet around the pump body will keep the noise down, swap the gts pickup for the GTR one, being very careful to not damage the circlips that hold it in place. Also swap the harness over (two screws). If your GTR pump comes with the anti drain-back valve install that too, otherwise you'll need to prime it EVERY time you crank the motor - a real PITA.

If this info sounds confusing - don't worry. It will make perfect sense when you have all the bits out of the car. Definitely worth doing as a first mod if you're looking to power up.

Overall a very easy job.

thanks

in terms of specs, is it worth doing ? i mean, can the r32 pump deffo flow more fuel than the r33 gts-t ?

I'm no stranger to 'modding' have had several turbo cars in the past, mr2 turbo, gti-r, 200sx, just this is my first skyline ... :)

thanks

Hi tangO, Standard GTR pump is 190 litres per hour and supports 420 bhp at standard pressure (that's ~265 rwkw)

Standard GTST pump is 135 litres per hour and supports 300 bhp at standard pressure (that's ~175 rwkw)

Hope that helps :D

  • 2 years later...

Since we are on the topic of fuel pumps.

Is it ideal to ground the fuel pump so it runs constant 14volts all the time?

Whats the story with this?

What happens if we dont run constant 14volts?

Im just about to install a walbro one..

Sorry for the hijack.. just curious as it may apply to you also??

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
