Fuel Pump For A R30

[kimbercy]

hey guys!

i have a skyline R30 and it seem's the fuel pump is buggered on it it makes a clicking noise and thats about it....now i've rang bursons's which i knew would be expensive for a new one it'll be $475 :| no way am i paying that so was wondering what should i try now wrecker's or is there another kind of fuel pump that works?

any help more then appreciated

Well, the genuine ones from Nissan are over $700! (last time I asked)

Try the wreckers for a 280ZX pump, or similar. Or maybe Bursons for a VL Turbo pump.

ebay new R30 fuel pump $299

it is a bit exxy.....

i am positive a bosch item would be cheaper....

bosh pump $140 melb

or

$180 ext pump (sydney)

if you get one from the wreckers youre probably gonna have the same problem later on... but if its just to get the car running or to the car yard, then a wrecker one woudl be fine (vl commodore uses external one, should be perfect)

I just had a whole lot of trouble with my fuel pump. Turnrd out to be a faulty earth connection. I had pump in and out three times (bugger of a job) It was Ghostrider suggested the earth bit, and hey presto she worked again.

If you need another pump, suggest a VL, will be much easier? and cheaper.

Before installing set up and run to make sure it is wired up the right way.

yea im using a vl pump bosch 070 i think they r. deff fair bit larger cos vlts run the same pump and can get bout 180rwkw outa them b4 maxing (rb30et). goes in easy. all have 2 do is run a longer fuel hose from the fuel pump outlet to the steel fuel line and change the plug over.

$0 from local wreckers

I got a vl turbo pump that works last time it was in the car, and a r30 fuel pump that was only on my car for a couple years.

You can have either one for $50.

If you're interested ill test them out, make sure they still switch on and pump.

They are both bosch.
