Hello,

12CM x 4.5CM = Same as walbro as far as i know.

I think you should be fine,these pumps will flow plenty of horses... Throw it in and wind the boost up and see yourself.. we have a video of our car (R33 GTS-t) Running 1.5bar with a walbro and nice fuel pressure.

Not sure why everyone is dissing walbro pumps. :confused:

PUMP^KING^007

Its not the fact were dissing Walbro pumps, just trying to find out if this bloke Cefiro_PWA sold Genuine Walbro pumps or copies, can anyone confirm if there is any writing on a genuine Walbro pump as mine has nothing

Hello,

Looks like there was a few people that purchesed these off "CEFIRO_PWA". I am australia's biggest Walbro/Sard/Bosch supplier, If anyone can give me his contact number i will do my best and play a role of doing a cheap big sale for him.

Thank you.

p.s not every walbro has writing, depending on which stock you get, and which model. Tose dimensions are the 700BHP model.... We sell them for $189.99c!

May i ask how much you people paid?

I've had some dodgy dealing with this guy too, bought a pump off him, took 5 weeks to arrive, and only after I threatened to have him banned. Blitz is aware of his antics. I too don't believe the pump I was sent was a genuine Walboro, I've seen the Walboro's before, I won't be risking this on my engine.

Got in contact with...was given a tracking number. TJ try and get in contact with him, he is picking up his phone. AND its 0432, not 0423, dont do the same mistake as me....not nice... :)

Hello,

I am being terrified from what i am hearing. There is two kinds of walbro's you get from the states.

One with blue top lids, and one with black top lids. I was told from Walbro USA they are the high-pressure , High horsepower output models. They are $129each , if you buy over 50 of them at once. The black top ones are cheaper,450bhp low-pressure model's... They are not worth anymore then $60.00 USD each direct from supplier.

If you guy's recieved the ones i am thinking of , then you should be dead-set lucky!

Cheers

Seriously how can you tell?

I have heaps of dealings on this forum. I think this is taken too lightly.

I think before someone is allowed to trade there should be a qualifictation or something like on E Bay or the likes .

This guy is a damn criminal , ripps people off by using a fraudulant trick.

This is jail time!

fair enough, but before I buy off someone I haven't dealt with before I do a couple of things:

1. check their recent post history and threads started to try and get a feel for what they are like.

2. check their trader rating (obviously any negatives is a bad sign)

3. open comunication with them via telephone or email (so I have some more contact details).

that is the best advice I can give you.

now for some more practical advice. if you want to check this pump it's quite simple. you need two buckets. the pump, a full charged car battery, some fuel. now if it's rating is at XXX PSI I guess you will have to hook up a reg too.

you just need to fill one bucket with fuel have the pumps pick-up in there, run the pumps outlet to the other bucket, run the pump for one minute exactly and measure how much fuel it flows in one minute then times by 60 and you get your litres/hour.

Hello,

It doesn't have to be fuel to do this test, it can be water... Just make sure you blow dry the pump and its internal's once you are finished.

I doubt you would get a chance to do 1minute with a blue-top walbro in a 10L bucket :)

PUMP^KING^007

yeah, you could do 30seconds and times by 120. the reason i suggested fuel is purely to save having water in the pump. but yes I'm sure whatever fluid would give a fairly close result. 10 litres a minutes is 600 litres per hour though, that will be one serious pump!!

havent done the test yet, the lids are blue

:confused: and how much did you say you paid for this??? I know i wont sell these for less then $189 myself... They cost me over $129 to order in a big batch of 30-50 pumps.

Please do the test.

Yeh the Lids are Blue , came with no instructions or numbers on them, i need physical sizes of a real Walpro to compare , mine is for the GTr and is supposed to flow 255 l p hour, any one got a pic of the Walpro pump that we could have a look at?

Spoke to this guy to day, got a # thru members .

He reckons it's the real deal ???????I think i know his name but i shall keep this up my sleave, until we are definetly positive that it's a fake , which i will bet my left nut it is .

What significance will the colour of the lid make?

I paid $145.00 for it.

i reckon you have all got original walbros... they are small, i had the same thoughts when the first came out and got one... do the test someone'

anyhow, id like his details, as we are chasing him over other matters.

cheers

tj

they should come in a plastic bag, with a separate plastic bag which contains:

- Install Instructions

- Sock Filter

- Electrical Connector,

- 2 Hose Clamps

- Piece of hose

- Rubber thing that goes on bottom of pump to hold sock filter in

I was contacted by this guy, who was claiming that he sells them to the guy I buy them from. However this isn't the case, as we get them directly from the US.

I guess the price he was offering was too good to be true!!

CEFIRO_PWA is on the bad traders list aka mines_datsun, redfc, doridori32. His contact details are listed, for anyone who cares to contact him about the matter.

I can't believe this has happened again, this scam artist has been ripping people off for ages. Perhaps some of the people who have been ripped off by this guy should unite....

Pump King, or should I say Cefiro_PWA, its clear you think that people here at SAU are extremely gullible - either that or you are a complete idiot.

Your posting in here reaked as suspicious along with your join date not to mention the fact you are trying to trade here using an email with the same user name as one of your phone bank accounts that you supplied under your AE of Cefiro_PWA.

You have been reported to the police so do yourself a favour and quit before you get yourself even further up shit creek.

Ok, I've been asked for pics of what the Walbro pumps are ment to be...

they are a lot smaller than a stock fuel pump, but bigger doesn't necessarily mean better!!

the body of the pump measures approx 10cm x 4cm (not including plug & fuel feed lines)

It should have stamped on the body:

__ _ __

|  ||||  |

|walbro|  GSS-341

|_____|  13405-1  MADE IN USA

              PAT 4500270 5421306

This is for Walbro GSS-341 255L/hr High Pressure fuel pump.

It has a black top. there are other model walbro's which have different model numbers!

Here are pics of what you should get when you order one. (I took these this afternoon).

Hope this helps guys!

-TK

Yer it came in a bodgy parcel, no sender ID, no name, no address just a mobile number : 0432 616 833

 

The dimensions of the pump are 12cm x 4.5cm

 

The reason why i think its not genuine is because it has no part No. or any Walbro name on the pump

 

I havent put the pump in yet, should i be cautious in putting it into the car?

Yeh,

i surely am!

How can any idiot expect to sell and then send a part , particularly a pump, with no instructions , Part number no ID at all , only a a niave person would put it in the tank and cross their fingers and hope all go"s OK.I mean what person with would do that?? Maybe one with an IQ of 90 and under!

I've had some dodgy dealing with this guy too, bought a pump off him, took 5 weeks to arrive, and only after I threatened to have him banned. Blitz is aware of his antics. I too don't believe the pump I was sent was a genuine Walboro, I've seen the Walboro's before, I won't be risking this on my engine.

Me either!

    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan.
