I tried searching the forums for this but all I could find was people selling their GTR pumps so thought id try asking here.

My car will be receiving some new turbos and a PFC soon, and the next step I will be looking at is upgrading the fuel system.

Ive got injectors sorted, but dont know which way to go with a pump.

I want a straight swap so no messing around, and the nismo items etc from places like greenline seem to want around $500 so I think they're out of the question.

I think ive read a bosch 044 pump is direct replacment and can handle around 550hp, is this true or is it an external pump? where would be the cheapest place in brisbane to source one?

My last option was a walbro pump but know nothing of model numbers or fitting details, but people claim to buy these for around $150 or am I reading US websites or something? ;)

I'd get a Tomei or Nismo pump - fits straight in & has the flow you'd be after but your looking at about $400-500. The Bosch 044 is cheaper but depends if mucking around with it whether its worth it. I personally went with the Tomei.

Its a GTR so surely a extra hundred bucks is worth it to get a straight replacement.

Cheers,

If you're getting a workshop to do the work, Jap name brands work out to about the same as a Bosch after messing around with filters, and wiring in new plugs etc. I used a Nismo and it dropped in easy as.

As Penfold said - it's a GTR - you don't make many (reliable) performance enhancements for under $500 dollars on these cars.

i wouldnt be mucking around with bosch pumps unless you need huge fuel flow for 700hp...

get the nismo direct fot pump.... you will pay nearly the same for after market bosch by the time you fit it and it wont fit as nice....

cheers...

      RB30DET timing belt tensioner relocation query

      By Shoota_77 · Posted

      I don't run the spring but it means you need to set your own belt tension.  I put tensioners on both sides too.

      Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.

      Wiring high beams in IC7 for R32 GTR

      By BourneToLive · Posted

      Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know.

      RB30DET timing belt tensioner relocation query

      By zigrb30 · Posted

      G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.

      Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
