Also i didnt want to start a massive debate over that comment but i did an aftermarket fuel pump replacement when i had my 33, had the bosch 040 put in and it didnt raise pressure all i wanted to know was what a good option for the 34 was.

Nismo drop in. Or a e85 400lph walbro will do the job Thetis drop in models for skylines on eBay for around $200ish. There is a 450-460lph version swell that's drop in. You may as well go a e84 friendly one for the future. :)

pretty sure the e85 pump is not drop in. I have one, it is in but took some mods as it is a fair but bigger than the actual drop in pump, and it draws heaps more current.

I know the nismo pump is 100% drop in. The e85 460lph walbro make not be direct drop in but it is a intank fuel pump still. And still can be a drop in with a bit of basic mucking around. So yes it is a drop in fuel pump still as if drops into the tank. Just not a DIRECT drop in as the nismo pump is. keep in mind though the walbro is basically hAlf the price of the nismo.

Don't use the 040, the filter is prone to clogging and it is an old clunky design.

The Walbro 460L is overkill if you aren't tuning the car, even a Walbro 342 is more than you need, only costs $100, but still requires hard wiring the power.

I would be keeping the stock pump until you decide to tune it.

Chunky yes... I dont know why people use the 040 over the 044 as i ran an 044 with barb on the end and the original style fuel sock on the bottom of the tank, should solve that clogging issue... Worked perfectly and surprisingly wasn't loud! I blamed it for my fuel issues but it ended up being the injectors! I still run that same pump today but its now in the boot due to the external setup.

What does a 040 flow and what's a 044 flow? Sweet f all compared to the new walbro's

A single 044 got me too 350kw on an intank setup! How much power do you want to make? lol

I've got a single 044 that has been made to be a drop in. From memory I had to modify my cradle to make it a drop in. I put that in probably 5 or so years back. If I were to do it today I'd just use a walbro e85 friendly pump. Well plans are for me to make 400kw if I can. So I'll need to upgrade my pump. If memory serves me right the 044 flows 300lph but I could be wrong. 5+ yrs back memory not so great from regular weekend alcohol abuse haha. I'm more than likely still going a hta 3076r or 3582r on my built 25. Unless stao can come up with something pretty similar. Prefer to support a local bloke if I can. But FP hta just seems the ducks nuts at the moment lol.

    • If that's the wiring from the factory, I'd be inspecting the loom everywhere.   Any signs of that anywhere else, and seriously, I'd get rid of the car ASAP before the electrical gremlins make it worthless, or it goes up in flames on its own. That is scary how that insulation is failing!
    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
