How To Replace A Fuel Pump R33 S2

[SKYL1N]

Hey guys,

Fuel pump died today in my r33 GTS, put petrol in as i was VERY low and wouldn't start once i got back in from paying.

Cannot hear the fuel pump at all and the car sounds like it wants to start but just cant

Had it towed away.

How hard is it to install a new pump myself? is this an easy DIY job??

i did a search for a tutorial but found nothing

also roughly how much is a new pump going to cost, had a look on ebay and there were some generic ones for about $80

how much for a genuine/trusted aftermarket brand

Thanks for your help, Im lost without my daily.

Look at this guide here, pretty much the same to replace the pump with an OEM/GTR/Nismo/whatever, except you don't cut the cradle etc, but you may as well upgrade to a 040 while you are doing it.

Have you checked the fuel pump fuse? As the Fuel Pump fuse may have blown, just a guess.

yeah checked the fuse, was praying it was blown for an easy fix but

thanks very much for your help

No Problem, good luck getting it fixed.

all done, job took a few hours, the bit that took the longest was getting the black plastic cover off with the hammer n screw driver

thanks for your help

Good Job

Yeah, took me ages too to get that off, I had to take it off a few times, as explained in that thread (I Think). Mine is almost munted, lol, was fun working on it with a FULL tank of petrol - very cold, and was getting headaches from the petrol fumes.
