My standard pump wasnt happy above ~210kw at all 4 wheels. Most people say you can get close too 300kw at the wheels before needing to replace it.

My new fuel system comprises of factory pump in tank, 2L surge tank and Bosch 044 pump. Works a treat.

The 044 isnt that noisy... it makes a small audible buzzing noise at idle, cant hear it any other times.

And the surge tank is to prevent fuel surges going around a track etc :)

Also raises my bling bling wank factor when I pop the boot with all the pretty braided hoses and earls/speedflow fittings :cheers:

ahaha ok ok cool cool

so 044 pump will do just fine

I've just had to replace my stocker pump. Managed to make 410hp at all four which I thought was awesome for a stocker. I thought it was actually aftermarket until I pulled the bastard out. :)

I've now got a drop in SARD pump. Not noisy enough for me to complain put it that way.

Hey, ive gotta upgrade my pump and i was hoping to keep an in tank set up. Anyone know of an in tank pump that will support 350rwkw, or will i have to go the 044 with a surge tank. If ive gotta go the external 044, will a Walbro 500hp pump be ok for a lift pump? Ive also got the standard r32 gtst pump that i could as the lift pump use too.

This is what i run, walbro in the fuel tank to prime serge tank and the 044 to pump upto the injector's, Works fine.

Serge tank is to also stop the 044 from running dry :)

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • 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 dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
