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!

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!

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
