how about some figures on the pump..... in tank bosch 044 pumps are cheaper installed and we all know what they can flow...SHEDLOADS.

what kind of performer is the HKS pump?

well all i can tell you is that this pump flows 280L/H which is 125% better than std as claimed by HKS i have been told that they can support upto 800bhp by some reputable tuners in brisbane... some say the std pump handles 600bhp no probs

and the flow rate does not get affect much by the boost pressure as your o44 pump can... it also has the built in pressure regulator looking thing as the standard pump... and fits in the standard spot with out mod's

it has the same flow rates as the apexi, nismo and all the other brand name pumps but tomei pump with the same flow rate has been recommended to handle upto 1000bhp of fuel. because i never got to use it in my car that is all that i can tell you..

thanks for the info....

I dont all that much about pumps except that alot of people swear by the 044. I am looking at upgrading to an intank pump before the end of next week. I only have the standard pump and i have been told i need atleast 300-320 L/H to keep up with my injector and air flow rates.

Thanks

i don't know if this info will help you but if you need that kind of flow the 044 is not capable of delivering that. i went through all the trouble when i was upgrading my car. without knowing what BHP your trying to achieve i can't comment anymore, the standard pump will flow easy 500bhp at the motor belive it or not. and in intank form the 044 by it self will do about 600bhp at 1.5 bar pressure with HKS 2540 turbos. that was why i got the HKS pump just to make sure that the pump is not over worked as it was rated at 800bhp. so i think you should find out bit more information about what you really need befor you spend any money.... if you are gonna keep the motor stock bosh 044 or the hks or any other brand name will do but if you are gonna go further it might pay to get a surge tank and maybe run twin 044's

just my suggestion

cheers.

engine is not stock and from what you have stated, obviously my car is not running the standard fuel pump in it. My car is making over 420 rwhp which is about 550hp at the engine. Perhaps an 044 would be a step backwards, but i doubt it!

I have seen a car make over the 550 rwhp figure claiming a single bosch 044 fuel pump feeding the rail.

like i said i'm only telling you what i been told by others

and yes i have seen standard pump do 600bhp at the engine and the bosh 044 do 800bhp also but not sure how reliable it is. i have only told you what has been recommed by the manufactures so please don't take offence to what i have told you

i only did it to try and save you some time in researching

like i said it was just some info....

    • H2 (for cars) will never happen. It's not reasonable for any number of reasons. It's also not reasonable for almost all of the industrial uses that the fanbois say that it will be used for, again for a large number of reasons. There are some cases where it will be good. But, even those will be massively hampered by the economics. The only way that H2 can be economic is if we somehow manage to get from where we are to the other side of the economic-valley-of-death in which no-one can operate. You need there to be sufficient renewable generated electricity to be available so that it is effectively free. Once you are there, you can do whatever the hell you want and hang the efficiency. But until you get there, the ever diminishing value of electricity makes it harder and harder to encourage businesses to build the new generation capacity, and they will simply stop investing in generation projects. (I kinda think there needs to be just government money spent on building the required capacity in a non-commercial way, similar to how the first fossil fueled grids were built, as national-government owned utilities. And probably some nuclear in there to start. But this all should have started 10-15 years ago to avoid the chasm of death that we face right now). Synth fuels will be much more likely, but will only occur is there is at least some renewable H2 production, because you need H2 to do it. And you need stacks of free (or at least extraordinarily cheap) energy because assembling molecules back into fuels is exactly the opposite process to burning the fuel, and the reason we burn fuels is because there is so much energy squeezed into each molecule. So you're somewhat subject to the same economic valley of death problem as above anyway. That is unless people are willing to pay the current equivalent of $5 or $6 per litre of petrol-ish liquid fuels. Can you imagine it? The squealing at $2 now is bad enough.
    • This is so cool. Get a dashcam that records audio and hopefully you'll catch it.  Maybe there's a brand or some kind of markings on the back ? Are the pics hand drawn? I love it so much.
    • Hahaha yep, point(s) taken. I just like seeing different things and an EV in an R32 is pretty different. I'm not on the EV band wagon, I'm waiting for synthetic fuels or hydrogen personally. 
    • I mean it's probably likely that people overestimate their skills in dialling in a setup and noticing the changes. I had SK shocks and springs, and added heavier springs and got them revalved by Sydney Shocks to suit based upon what I told them I wanted the car to handle like. I got back a completely different feeling set of shocks, which probably (?) feel great on track but holy hell are they rough on tram tracks and the like. The shock dyno actually looks pretty similar to Shockworks (from what I can surmise from a screenshot of a youtube video - and my dyno printout...) Truth be told I doubt I'd be any faster or slower with either setup, or camber/castor combination. I also had whiteline eccentric castor bushes up front of my R34. I removed them and put in poly non-adjustable ones to soothe my OCD (nobody ever set the castor the same side to side, and it'd be near impossible to do) and be happy the wheel is centered in the well now for clearance reasons. Yes I wanted it to move 1mm 'back' :p I've effectively set my castor back to stock, negating all the benefits of that which is supposedly massive. I've probably also altered toe and camber in a negative (detrimental) way. I can't tell any difference steering the car.
