Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Nismo fuel pumps are only 275lph or something silly. Sure they bolt in but thats about it. 450lph walbro pump will also cost ~150 bucks less IIRC. If the R33gtst fuel pump mount setup is similar to the R32gtst it's a peice of piss to modify it to fit, though getting to the tank may be harder due to 33's being less likely to combust in a rear end accident.

You could probably easily go smaller injectors (720cc?) and shave off a hundred bucks. Also make sure you buy side feed injectors to suite your fuel rail, with the right size holes etc.

Really need a FPR? Making 300kw's here without one, but maybe there's different stuff on the GTR fuel system?

I wouldn't double the tuning, maybe add only 50%, for flex. You're basically getting two tunes in there. That's assuming you have no issues however, which can quickly add up unfortunately. I mean, best case, just a 98 tune, 500 bucks maybe. Worst case, things to wrong, flex tune, 2000 bucks isn't out of the question, so be ware.

you're also just missing little stuff. Turbo gaskets, new studs, fittings for Ethanol sensor and the like can add up to a few hundred bucks

You'll need to figure out how you're going to get the car to the tuner aswell, Everything you need to do is easy enough to DIY at home (and... satisfying to do, i'd recommend it), but with bigger injectors the car will be undrivable unless you can get the tune adjusted for the injectors. Not sure how easy haltec is to modify

Not compatible? So Walbro over Bosch 040?

If you say so. You've done it recently.

yeah, the Walbro pump is E85 ready and as Pete said flows more than nismo pumps.

It can be fitted in tank too (just like mine)

Yeah, budget for at minimum 2k in tuning costs with eflex

R33 fuel tank is completely different to R32, just FYI.

Not sure how simple it is to mount a walbro/040 in tank in an R33

well as long is its not mounted to the tank floor it'd be easy enough :woot:

    • its Masterton Motorplex just over the hill out of wellington. 
    • R31 boot how I received the sub, cleaned and today new carpet installed. Thank you Solder!!!!
    • @joshuaho96 Hmm considering the drama you've seen/experienced, have you looked into getting a built complete long motor shipped from Australia?  Considering the AUD is basically monopoly money when compared to the USD, at a glance this seems like a good option?
    • Bloody Skylines, they put you through the bloody wringer! Stick at it! Stunning drag strip BTW! Where is it? Can see part of the name on the slip and probably should just Google it!
    • I mean the other day I had to walk someone through diagnosing why their timing belt was walking off the cam gears. At least one of the issues was a bent tensioner stud. Local mechanics have found runout on the CAS mechanism causing weird failures. I'm also no saint here I've documented some of the things I've had to learn the hard way. Something I discovered recently is that my CA emissions catalytic converters weren't even welded correctly to align the downpipe to the main cat and they tossed the support bracket that goes from the transfer case to the downpipe to support everything there. I spend a lot of time chasing down these decidedly unsexy problems and the net effect is it feels like I never actually get to the original objective (flex fuel, VCAM, oil control, cooling, etc).
