Fuel Pump & Regulator

[Marco-R34GTT]

yes! That is the only reason I bought a sard reg over the nismo one. I wanted to have a fuel pressure gauge tucked away with a warning light. a fuel pump has died on me once before, and I'm paranoid about it now (and fuel surge too). the beauty of my sard reg is the defi sensor just plugs into the side, and when setting it up I can hit a switch on the defi controller which eliminates boost/vacum from the reading so I can accurately see the base pressure withiout having to unplug the vac line etc.

but yes, you can t one in, just a bit of mucking around.

I'm guessing with the NISMO one you can't install a pressure gauge and a warning light/device?

Nice choice of hardware

Interested in which button you press on the controller and its effect? Shouldn't turning key to "accessory's" give you a base pressure

turning key to accessory wont give you anything sadly. turning the key to on will prime the pump, but only for around 2 seconds and i think only once every 5 min or so. (ie you can't keep doing it over and over).

on the controller you press both the up and down button at the same time and it gives you what they call 'differential pressure' which is fuel pressure - manifold pressure (either positive or negative pressure). This gives you the same effect as removing the vac line from the reg to set the base pressure. but you need the defi boost gauge installed too to use that feature (which I do anyway).

marco, the nismo reg does not have a gauge port sadly. so to install a guage you will need to cut the fuel line and install a T-piece and a gauge off that.

Arrgh course - my bad.

Up and Down at the same time, awesome, thanks!

The R34 should be no different to the R33, if so it will be so marginal you won't care.

Just read the R33 thread.

The pics speak for themselves.

Price on Tomei pump (Someone asked) was $340 deilvered from nengun and i suspect it's now cheaper as the dollar has gone higher.

Good luck peeps.

Cheers Birnie for the help, nice pics you posted too. Should be very helpful when i buy the pump!

From Nengun the Tomei pump is $360 delivered, incase others would like to know.

The nismo pump is $385 delivered

Beer Baron is that a feature with the DEFI II controller or the earlier one too knowing that I might be tempted to go sard anyway.

Wasnt aware they did differential as well!! Thats damn cool really am running a defi boost too only I have the early controller.
