Hi,

My fuel pump on my 96 R33 Sh!t itself, what would be some good options for an easy change over, just get a new stock one back in. Or can I put a GTR or something after market in without to much mucking around.

What kind of benefits would i have putting in something after market?

Cheers,

No point going back to standard, upgrade while you can.

I just upgraded from a standard pump to a GTR pump, works minttt.

Go a GTR if you don't want to spend big, it will support whatever you want to do most likely.. or if you really want to go to a new pump go a WALBRO or a BOSCH 040.

Good value for money, and will support big power.

Thanks,

Abu

Would an R34 GTR pump fit on my R33 GTS-T?

Cause I seen one for sale on here,

Also changing to a GTR or Aftermarket pump is it a straight swap or do I have to tweak computer or anything in management?

Cheers,

I put a bosch 040 in my 33...worked a treat so far. And preety much silent! (it will be loud if you dont install it properly) You dont have to tweak anything managment wise :) But you will have to slightly mod your bracket and cut a bit off the fuel line that connects to the pump but thats easy to do. There are step by step tutes on this website to guide you through it easy!

A new pump is a better idea than a used 10 year old GTR pump. Worth the extra cash IMO

+1 for new pump, dont want it to fail on you again

i put a gtr one in and it was very loud (party because of the bodgy workshop that installed it wrong)

changed it for a walbro 500hp kit and it was much quieter and pretty much a straight swap, all hoses + clamps come with the kit i think the only thuing i had to change was the connectors for the positive and negative.

the 040 bosch is probably equivalent to the walbro one, either way they should both do for approx 250rwkw

Cost me 180 at Autobarn there on special till fathers day.. ;)

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Unless there's something particular about the Greddy manifold's injector holes that I'm not aware of, those injetcors look to be totally wrong. They would absolutely want to be spaced up to get those long snouts out of the runner. Which, I think, is not usually the way that that problem is solved. I think the problem is solved by using the correct injectors, which would be much more like what Andrew posted.

      Thanks for the reply, So i've continued playing around, and fitted the injector adaptors onto the injector, the fuel rail is not able to be mounted now as the injectors sit a bit further out. I suppose the point of the adaptors is so that the injector nozzle isn't so deep into the intake? I suppose 1mm extra on the o-ring would do it but still can't mount the rail onto the intake haha. Waiting on a reply from Aeroflow I'm sure there's something stupid that I'm missing...

      I have a radium fuel rail on my Greddy manifold and used the supplied radium fuel injector to manifold adapters (The round green things pictured). I did always wonder if you could just go ahead and use the second lower hole like you're doing... Wouldn't thicker o-rings solve your issue?

      Does anybody use the Firestryker or Element sticks?

      From what I've seen and experienced first hand with those powder extinguishers, they're good to use to break a window and escape the car, and half the time then do f**k all to stop a fire. You just need much more than 1KG worth of powder. Not to mention, half the time it's an engine bay fire, and you can't easily, and do not want to completely open the bonnet, so you're left pretending to be an American Infantry... Spray and Pray baby!   And then 100% that shit is really destructive afterwards!   Realistically, those little ones at a race track might help you keep the fire from growing and give the fire marshal / truck a chance to actually get to you with their multiple large bottles.   For a road car, these days, prepare to deboard as quickly as humanly possible, and move to safety. Allow insurance to fix replace it (unless it's like a rare classic etc, then do nearly everything possible to save it!) Keep the little extinguisher with you to help protect other things around you from burning while you stand there singing "How can we sleep while our beds are burning?"   Secondly, powder extinguishers I freaking hate for indoor use, (this isn't really relevant to a car) as you will get a powder fog around you, and it can be disorientating.   When I did fire training when at BlueScope Steel, they have (had?) their own fire brigade on site. We did all the training, and at the end we were told, "If it's an indoor fire, and you need to use a powder extinguisher, we as the fire brigade would rather you just exit the building, you're more likely to get lost in the smoke and powder fog than do much help, so just GTFO" And pretty much that was what they said for most other fires too, grab extinguisher, if it's much more than paper in a bin fire, use extinguisher to get you and others out of the building to safety...   Part of me wishes when my Skyline caught alight many moons ago, I let insurance sort it out, instead of putting the fire out... part of me now says "But I've saved a classic before it was a classic!"
