I removed the fuel pump to take a look at the tank. The sender unit is very rusty.
Took a look at the tank and it is also quite rusty.
Right at the base of where the fuel pump sits, there's a buildup of what seems to be rust particles.
I did find new OEM fuel tank (17202-01U01) and sender unit (25060-01U00) from amayama which would set me back around €900 including shipping and customs. I most likely would need a new fuel pump as well.
I'm going to be honest, I have been driving for around 6 years now and this is the only mechanic I went to apart for once (Last year I took my Porsche 924 to a guy who specializes on them). I've got a good relationship with him and he's always there to assist, even coming over to my garage at times for my convenience since the car was not starting. I believe he's got over 20 years of experience, but this is not the first time he let me a bit down on some basic diagnosing. I do not want to switch over to someone else, but I'd be lying if I said that it did not cross my mind.
If the GTR keeps climbing to ridiculous out of control prices, it will drag the GTST up as time goes on. Those who cant drop silly $ on the GTR, will then start to drop big $ on the GTST.
Yep that is a factor for sure. I wonder how much further the gtst's can go. I wouldn't be surprised if they are relatively tapped out and only the GTR's continue to grow. But then again my crystal ball doesn't work too good.
I've never seen a R33 towing a track bike, that is interesting though.
