044 or 040 will do the job..

044 has a higher flow rating but its generally used as an external pump. Mods (nothing major) can be done to the bracket and pickup filter to made it work internaly.

040 is a pretty straight forward replacement.

Cheers,

Me and another skyliner on here bought a couple Tomei pumps and it was friggin easy to install.. slid right in and comes with o-ring and couple other little bits and has a pickup.. the bosch ones dont. Took about 1 hr to install.

what are the tomei pumps rated at? (hp) looking for something around the 350rwhp-400rwhp mark in tank though so most probably leaning towards the 040 pump.Also where did you get the tomei pump from? how much?

1 hour and a pint of blood. HaHa, if ur changing the pump urself watch the metal when ur twisting the retaining ring off......and fuel doesnt help cuts either. LoL

the bosch fuel pumps need to have the fittings and brackets modified whereas the tomei ones dont...also alot quieter than the bosch ones to, doesnt sound like bee's inside ur fuel tank. also like ryan said, everything is supplied....plugs straight in....all sweet

cuts and fuel (niiiiiiiiiiiiiiice) haha, yeah i get ya would be easier to install the tomei by sounds of things, if i go with bosch 040 just probably take it in to a workshop to fit it saves me the effort will ring a few workshops later see what the prices are like for fitment.

haha just called up ovaboost they charge $100-$120 to fit the 040 and the pump is $200 so thats still cheaper, but i dont know what the ratings off the tomei 1 are but im sure they are a good pump any ways going with 040 thanks for the input dudes look out for a r33 with a 040 on the street soon LOL just kidding :angry:

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
