Hi Guys,

Looking for some input.

I'm looking for a replacement pump for my 32R (standard 180k/km pump) and I'd prefer to avoid GTR tax on this one. Trying to find an alternative to the "Standard" replacement option being a Nismo/Tomei etc. I was considering a Walbro but ive had some pretty poor experiences with these in the past. Like to avoid this route if possible.

Originally i was going to opt for an 044 and just modify the existing cradle (i dont have a problem doing this) however after hearing how loud these are in person, im looking for an alternative.

I've seen Deatschwerks have a fairly substantial range, appears a ton of guys in the UK use these. However as ill only be pushing for ~300awkw at this stage i dont require 320LPH that the DX300 can support. However i would like some additional headroom for "future" fun.. fund permitting. The upper ceeling with my current setup is limiting me to ~300>320awkw anyway.

Was looking at a DX62A:

Does anyone have any experiences with these in a 32/33GTR? Seems from most of the experiences im reading is that these pumps are fairly highly regarded. Seem to operate fairly quietly and are significantly smaller then the standard pumps. Any information you guys can provide would be great. However ideally im seeking personal experiences here not the "my mates brothers dog has a gtr and runs one and its great"

Also wanting to confirm that these will pull from an empty tank. I've read mounting these slightly lower on the standard cradle seems to work quite well.

For reference my current setup is as follows:

1993 R32 GTR

unopened/standard head

GT2860-7

680CC Delphi Injectors

RS260 dumps to a 3.5" Exhaust

Standard FPR

This is a 100% Street driven GTR.

Cheers,

Carlo

A lot of people don't seem to trust the Walbros for some reason. They're pretty good if you aren't pushing huge amounts of boost. Anyway I'm sure the DW pump will be fine or you could look at an aeromotive stealth 340L/h pump which seem to do a bit better than the walbro 255's at higher boost.

good luck

I have no problems running my Walbro 255's at 70-80psi. As long as you buy original Walbro's they are fine, and last longer than DW pumps in Ethanol, that's for sure.

Best bet is the E85 460L Walbro for $200, or the petrol version for around $150.

044's are dinosaur pumps, loud and obnoxious. They also don't like ethanol.

    • Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 😑. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

    • Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.
    • Hope the cans went down well at least 
    • 255 can't go wrong with the price.
    • When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
