Guys,

It may seem to be a silly question, as i havnt been bothered to check (lazy), but is the fuel pump in the R33 gts-t an internal tank pump of is it mounted outside the tank?

I am looking at putting a larger fuel pump in but am unsure whether it is an internal or external one. Please help!!!

Also what pump it the optimum one?

Cheers,

Kris:)

It's an internal pump. You can mount bigger pumps either internal or external depending on which one it is.

Bosch 044's pump alot of fuel, but unless you have 500hp not necessary.

Something like the Bosch 910, about $200 is more than enough for most. Can be mounted either internal or external.

You can also buy a surge tank which will keep the original internal pump but use an external pump on the surge tank. Keep in mind that this will be quite loud from the cabin, which is the main reason I didn't take this option.

The beauty of Bosch pumps is that most can be mounted internal or external, so once you take one course of action you can change it around later (to/from surge tank to internal tank for example).

    • Ha ha, that is very true!  I'm too scared to leave it in the position though, it tingles my balls seeing it like that!
    • Which one did you buy? I have always wanted a decent inspection camera but have been unable to tell whether something is cheap junk or cheap junk chunk sold at just a bigger markup
    • Ha ha ha! I know those feels mate I've finally got the garage cleared enough that next weekend I'll do some actual work on my car (hopefully). Unfortunately garage isn't usable after 10am at the moment That said, I've done a lot of work this weekend on helping finalise a friend's Production Race car. Full started Christmas Eve. We're down to about 8 tasks on the list, including "get a wheel alignment". Sometimes it's just easier working on someone else's car or project than our own stuff 😛
    • Ha ha, ended up going it alone.  I just sent it (in a very nervous fashion).  Once I'd released the locks and it didn't automatically start spinning out of control i felt a bit more confident.   It made some loud sounds (cracking and creaking noises) when I first spun it which got the heart rate going again!  I couldn't bring myself to leave it tipped on the side.  I feel a bit more comfortable having back right side up while it sits there. I'd get angry with your last point but you're 100% correct! 😅 Even yesterday I managed to distract myself at numerous times to make a bracket to fit an LED flood light off the back of the house and fix my sons pushbike.  There were other little taks nibbling at my brain for the rest of the day too...
    • Probably one of the more nerve wracking experiences of my entire life! 😂😂 The balance (centre of gravity) is out still but in a direction that gives me comfort!   It's quite bottom heavy still meaning it takes a bit of muscle to rotate it.  The plus side of that is that it wants to to go back to upright.  Better that than wanting to go all stranded turtle on me!
