Right, I see what you mean now. Mounting the fuel pump bare in the bottom of the tank without its box does look quite questionable: Compared to using the OEM box for the pump: Just for the record, these are the videos on the hanger and surge tank systems. He explains it quite well. -
I think, given the other pictures of same on the FPG site, that that is their tame R32 tank with a hole cut in the side used for dev purposes, and the rust is a non-consequential surface finish. -
That rusty picture gives me nightmares. I can't believe it would not have been cheaper to put plastic tanks in all R32s...... And yes, I meant the factory mount is a kind of baffle...it slides into (and sometimes easily out of) a plastic mount glued to the tank floor -
Yes, well, the problem being the plastic tank. The RWD R32s obviously have a similar tank, but in steel, viz and you can see a nice sheetmetal swirl pot baffle. I would imagine that that is somewhat harder to do on a plastic tank.

Okay, good to know that it is not the same kit. There is no baffling in the tank from factory either, no? Possibly Nissan worked against that by feeding the fuel return line back into that little shoe the fuel pump sits in. From what I remember the FPG video mentioned that can actually be problematic if done with a high flow pump. Because the fuel is returned with more pressure through that little spout. There are so many ways to overthink this. It does my head in. I'll see what Unigroup says as well and go from there. It's a shame that the difference between the simple hanger and surge tank setup is ~$700. Add the new lift pump purchase on top and it becomes a bit hard to justify for a car that doesn't see that much action. First world problems I guess.
