Im currently trying to source a bosch044 intank pump for the gtr

Im not overally mechanically minded but my mate is so he said he would be willing to have a go at it for me (hes more of a v8 then rice boy though so doesnt know skylines too well :))

I searched the forums trying to find if anyones written up an article on this but without luck.

Would anyone be willing to write up a quick step by step/guideline to removing the fuel tank and actually replacing the pump with possibly some tips to mounting and running the hoses etc I would grately appreciate it :)

I'd be shooting for a HKS or Nismo pump. You can get them cheap enough from the right places, and they are a bolt in replacement. I believe the HKS ones even come with the cradle attached.

Also, removing the fuel tank is quite un-needed. All you need to do is remove the boot carpet and get into it that way, through the inspection plate.

I also have something to watch out for, Im not sure if its so much an issue in gtrs.

If the pump doesnt have sufficient clearance from the tank walls all around it do not put it in tank, as the pump vibrates it rubs the plastic off the tank and chews it. I lost 2 x 040s to this before i just gave up and put an 044 in with surgetank externally.

      Problem with a tachometer on a Skyline R33 with an RB25DET Neo engine

      By kike_kike · Posted

      Hello First, I apologize if this is not the correct forum. Let me know and I will move it to the correct one. I'm having a problem with the tachometer on my Skyline R33 with an RB25DET Neo engine. I'll tell you from the beginning. I'll tell you from the beginning. I have the RB25DET Neo engine installed in a Nissan Patrol GU, with a Link G4X control unit specifically for that engine,  and I have fitted a Skyline R33 tachograph to the original GU dashboard, but it doesn't work properly. I have the tachometer connected to the positive and negative terminals of the GU panel's wiring, and the signal cable is connected directly to the ECU output pin, but the rpm fluctuates widely. Can anyone tell me if the output signal from an R33 ECU is the same as the output signal from an R34 ECU, or if the voltage and signal type are different? Regards and thanks.

      I guess it was the thought about "Oh if I were to drive this everyday". Then no, SL500 I wouldn't really consider lmao.

      Yeah actually really fair point. Idk what I was thinking when looking at the SL500. Now that I think about it, I feel like I would have more enjoyment out of a shitbox that I would need to repair than some fancy merc. Although I must admit the SL500 does look quite nice. My bad hahaha.

      100% Also "Not wanting to spend money" is THE WORST IDEA IMAGINABLE when coming to a project car of any kind. They EXIST to BURN MONEY. Sure, gas money is a thing. A stock car with the worst fuel economy ever sold would probably be cheaper than modifying a car with FREE petrol for the life of your ownership of it, lol.

      Amount of time you're being observed by law enforcement is so minute, that you could be a dumb shit 90% of your driving time, and never lose a demerit. You could also be the best driver ever and still get hit with a fine.   When you realise how quickly everything turns from "Wee, we're having fun!" To "oh f**k oh f**k oh f**k", you start to realise the only way to be a good driver, is to not be doing anything dumb or unexpected by normies on the road. You want to go fast, go to the track. Someone there in a 1990s slow POS will also show you how bad of a driver you are as they lap 10 seconds per lap quicker than you can in a car that should be considerably faster.
