A Problem With My R33 Gtst Series 1

[LiL_JeT]

When you turn the key to the ON position can you hear the fuel pump priming?

priming as in that buzzin sound it does? ugh i didnt take notice when turned the key. but i tried just then and i didnt hear the buzzin it makes does that mean my fuel pump is buggered..

would anyone have an old fuel pump they are not using so i can borrow and try it in my car to see if thats the problem. if it is im happy to buy it off you so i can drive my baby to get a better pump

It could be the pump or it could be the relay. best to get an auto elec to check it out unless you can find a spare pump easy.

by the sounds of it you fuel pump might have gone mate.....time for a upgrade me thinks

there are a few aftermarket ones around.....

would a fuel pump from a 34 gtr fit into a r33? cos i got offered one for 80bux

[craig R33]

yes. youl need to keep your cradle though

[LiL_JeT]

yes. youl need to keep your cradle though

i take it the cradle is the thing that holds the fuel pump down or somewhat?

[craig R33]

correct. cradle/bracket same thing.

[LiL_JeT]

i take it if my current pump sits in nice then i must have a cradle then no worries i should buy that pump

[Krishy]

a 33 GTR pump would fit....not sure about a 34GTR pump though

[craig R33]

oops, i missread that, im certain a 33 gtr pump will fit, but as mahommad said, not 100% sure bout 34 R

r34 has a different wiring stuff thingo (sorry don't know how to explain it properly) wiring socket maybe? but if the dude gives you the wiring stuff as well just need to tap it on your standard one.

are you talking about the whole assembly how the harness is different? or the pump itself? but in any case. a r34 gtr pump will fit , yes or no? lol dont wana be buying something i'll never use

[Krishy]

just get a bosch 040 and get it fitted mate.....much easier

[J_Red33]

^^ Agreed & going to give you more power potential too.

Also if you get a second hand pump, don't be surprised if you have to pull that bugger out again only 12 months (or 12 minutes) later because it was already nearly worn out.

[Krishy]

you should be able to get bosch 040's for pretty cheap....there are plenty of them around $220

Get a bosche 040 or walbro =]

[Krishy]

either pumps are decent upgrades.....i got mine off Habi-bay and it seems to be working well so far....has supported 250 rwkw without any probs

how much does it cost to get a pump fitted? for example the bosche 040 and anyone you recommend?

Most workshops will charge you per labour hour which is normally around the $80 mark.....i had my fuel pump and boost controller fitted for i think $80 and a dyno run to see if it all worked fine and to tune the EBC.....all and all it came up to $80 as it took them roughly 1 hour to do lol...

Call and find what workshops will charge you mate.....

workshops up north: pitlane performance, smooth garage, boostworx, morepowa, fours n more, boosting oz

search them up and call em mate
