Gonna be installing a new fuel pump on the weekend...just wondering Do you need to use any special type of wire and terminals for this? or just the standard stuff u can buy from auto one/ super cheap?

because on the how to it doesnt actually say, and just looks like standard wire...but i wasnt sure how that would go being in the tank? also...do the terminals need to be covered up?

thanks.

Pretty much all you do is replace the stock pump with the new pump, it's very easy. Just make sure you don't get the polarities wrong like I did, the pump will run in reverse and not work.

Also are you planning on rewiring the pup to run direct off the battery? Highly recommend that you do...

Just looking at the DIY for it, the stock pump terminal connections are different to the ones on top of the 040?

rewiring the pump to run direct off the battery? if its the thing to do...then ill look it up and do it while im at it.

Ah ok, I assumed they were the same as an 044. Just standard insulated wire will be fine. Make sure you use heatshrink to cover up any exposed wires, you certainly don't want any sparks in there.

As for wiring off the battery, it made a huge difference to my pump. There is a DIY for it in the FI reference guide if you have a look in there.

      Brake pad Compound suggestion

      By Duncan · Posted

      I don't really know general street pads too well, but there is no reason you can't get a low dust, long wearing, no squeal pad that works for those calipers at a reasonable price....they would just be a low end to medium price daily style pad.  If new pads don't have much bite or they loose it over time, it is probably just the pad glazing up which you can fix by giving them a good thrashing every now and then (or get the mechanic to deglaze them at next service) Track or semi track pads are where you have to put up with excessive dust (and potentially squealing as a side effect of that) in return for good bite and performance when very hot. Street pads have nothing like that sort of punishment, even long downhills with the brakes on are easier than a track session

      lol yeah I'll check that, reminds me of the LDV thread!  I don't think that is the problem here, the starter doesn't even solenoid click. I did do a super quick test by removing the starter motor's power cable from the engine bay fuse box and the battery voltage was still 10v, so something super fishy is going on. BTW here is a R33 fuse box table I threw together from a few sources....use at own risk! R33 Fuse Box and Sources.xlsx

      Johnny's approach, throw all the Nissan electronics into the trash. Best thing I've done to my shit box, go DBW.

      Sounds like the JAX guys must have installed some really awful pads, are they BenShit/BenDicks pads by any chance?
