oweban Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I've got the thread saved, so I'll upload them all in this post. I did this but didn't sit the bracket down properly, oops. Does anyone else have quite a loud pump noise when turning ignition to ON but not turning the car on just yet? Heh. All good.

Aberax Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 ^^Awesome I was gonna upload some pics when i do mine, but no need now, i shall still take some though. Just a question about the install. Once i have installed the fuel pump, i don't need to change anything else, such as pressure's, injector duty cycles, etc etc. It's just install and go?

oweban Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 If you're still running stock ECU/FPR/injectors, no, I'm pretty sure it's all sweet. I'm having the Adaptronic ECU installed at the moment, and I don't think it needs to adjust... but when I upgrade my inj/fpr/turbo, I'll have to make modifications to the flowrate.

Luke_GTS-T Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 thanks for pics cpd. Whats peoples thoughts on getting new fuel hose? Would any fuel hose do?

Aberax Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Any fuel hose should do, just make sure it is the right size. I tried installing mine today...i failed miserably . I got the pump onto the bracket, but when i went to install the pump into the tank, it wouldn't go in, like it was too big or something. Could it have been because i hose clamped the pump to the bracket? the pictures above just show the fuel pump just hanging there, is that right?

I used a metal ring clamp thingy to attach the pump to the bracket after cutting it, and it fits fine Just gotta wiggle it around a bit. And yeah, new fuel hose is good; just get stuff the same size, it's fair cheap. Turns out I had a Walbro GSS 341 in there; now sitting here doing nothing Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/253097-how-to-bosch-040-fuel-pump-in-r33-skyline-si-sii/page/2/#findComment-4792466 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aberax Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I fitted mine the other week...only lasted about 500k's, the pipe i used was wrong and melted and the pump wasn't secured to the cradle. So the pump fell into the tank, and the car broke down, had to leave it in a maccas carpark for 2-3 days. this is what i did... Luckily my boss had installed a few of these before, he fitted it like you have shown. However i am only using 1 hose clamp (bottom one), i also got some new fuel hose from Autobarn. I also found that for me, the pump went in with the hose clamp tensioner/screw at the back of the cradle, so the opposite side to what you have.

Djdirt Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 ok just wann know, when mounted so low does this cause any issues like hitting the bottom of the tank as mentioned above? and Why are you guys not concerned about not using a filter/sock? cheers Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/253097-how-to-bosch-040-fuel-pump-in-r33-skyline-si-sii/page/2/#findComment-4965978 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djdirt Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 and while i am at it, these can be mounted in tank but these are "push" type pumps does this mean you gotta have 1/2 a tank to work/ and is anyone running these in tank without any surge tank setup sorry about all the noob questions Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/253097-how-to-bosch-040-fuel-pump-in-r33-skyline-si-sii/page/2/#findComment-4965997 Share on other sites More sharing options...
