Yeppers, some oem pumps are well capable of doing the job. Many z32's making 500+hp on stock pumps, however they are getting old, so a new OEM pump is always recommended :)

That's pretty impressive Dean. Are u running a relay on the factory wiring?

Have u tested the pump to see how much more it has got and what it could potentially support in terms of kw?

It was a full factory setup, factory wiring, like it had never been opened.

I've got twin nismos now so I can't compare....

Why did u upgrade your pump? Making more power or for safety factor?

I think I've hit a wall as I cannot source submersible fuel hose with an ID to accommodate the fuel pump inlet which is 15mm. I tried pirtek, gates, speed flow, earls and purple pig.

Gates stock submersible hose in 2 sizes and these only run up to 9.5mm.

Does anyone have any ideas on the best way to mate my fuel sock to the fuel pump? Fuel pump is a push hose fitting and the fuel sock has a female push fitting with an ID of 24mm. The generic fuel hose does infact work in terms of size for ID and OD, however, the outer skin will disintegrate as it sits in the fuel tank.

If I have no other option, I may run speedflow -10 push hose as EFI Performance suggested this and apparently does not break down in fuel (even though speedflow stated to me that it is not rated for fuel submersion.

When I bought my car the previous owner said it had a bosch 044

Had it tuned running 340rwkw no fuel supple issues what so-ever, even went drags 3 times etc

Upgraded last month to a walbro e85 pump only to find it had a stock pump in the tank lol

Its amazing what flow these OEM pumps can support. I might test mine in a bucket and see how many litres it flows over 1 minute...what is the best way to test this though, direct to the battery?

Marko, just cut off some hose off a fire truck. She'll be right mate ;)

how about some seasoned bong hose? Loool

I want to do back2back flow testing with the OEM pump and pierburg. I reconnected the OEM pump but the trigger switches it off after 5 sec.. can I connect the pump to the battery direct as I want to measure flow into a bucket over a period of 1 minute so that I can calculate LPH.

Update time.

I decided to flow test my OEM pump direct from the battery and was very surprised by the results.

Over a period of 30seconds, it flowed 2.7ltrs which equates to 324LPH.

The pump even ran low and started blowing bubbles as I couldn't fill up the 2 ltr bottle it was sitting in quick enough.

Am I getting a higher voltage / power supply from the battery, rather than the fuel pump harness located in the boot? How can the pump flow at such a rate?

Off the return, that way the fpr will hold it at the correct pressure/restriction. It should be a reasonable indication of the flow as long as there are no other restrictions. Eg. Blocked fuel filter crimped line ect.

just wondering

are stock 34GTT pumps enough to use as lift pumps for a surge tanks with two 044s. This is for 350kw+ on e85

or would using the Deatschwerks 300lph as a lift and two 044s be overkill/enough?

    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
    • Haltech fanboi reporting in. Buy the Haltech! 
    • You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
