Just browsing e-bay and came across this

Its not quite as hefty as the Nismo pump but 255L per hour all the same and is a dam sight cheaper

With future mods upto around 500hp in mind, would this pump do the job with 600cc injectors and GTSS turbo's???
Thanks for any suggestions guys.

Thats the one Ive got, no problems here. But then I got it from Apex, a widely recognised and respected UK company, for a fiver more

Thanks mate, i was hoping that would be the case

What are they like to fit?
I know their in the tank under a plate in the back but just wondered if its an awkward job generaly or straightforward.

Walbro are good. I've just swapped my cranky GTR pump for one.
Took me about 40 mins all in, but I've done it before.
Try and make sure the tank's as empty as it can be, then make sure you release all the pressure in the fuel system before undoing the pipes onto the pump.... It can stay presurised for absolutely ages. Pulling the fuel pump fuse and cranking the engine over for a while (about a minute) is a fairly easy way of doing that

I have just had one of these fitted by Hi Teq, I took the easy way out - but the car was in having other stuff done at the time so was convenient.

I know that the pump is compatable but I had to pay for a fitting kit which was effectivly an adapted for the unit. Was only £40 or summat but obviously would imagine that its needed!

no probs, the other way to easily get the pressure out of the system is to leave it idling, but disconnect the fuel pump connector and leave it till it stalls
