fuel pump upgrade

[VR4GOTTI]

does anyone know if a epman fuel pump is any good or if anyone has used one ? says they the same as walbro ones?

 

[brisvr4]

I could buy these direct from China for under $20 each. Hint hint.....

Does that mean buy 10 and run them parallel

 

[VR4GOTTI]

they are about 50 bucks cheaper then a walbro pump here in nz wuld anyone recommend them?

 

[EV0300]

i wouldnt go skimping on something that important but thats just me.

 

[evo-gsr]

I would recommend one....if you want to be asking heaps more questions in the tech section regarding rebuilding your freshly fucked motor....which will make your $50 saving, from buying a shit pump, pointless.

I am guessing that is $50 cheaper than a fake Walbro pump too.

Do it right the first time and never worry about it again. Get yourself a good quality E85 compliant pump from a reputable brand like Walbro or AEM.

Some real world experience with those fake pumps:

18 month lifespan, yay.

I was just sold a fake Walbro as a real one and I'm lucky my motor didn't go bang (9psi idle pressure instead of 38) - don't waste your time!
Get a real one they're not that expensive.

You guys know if this would fit?http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/parts/full_blown_dsm_dual_fuel_pump_hanger.htm

I dunno dean. But I know that you cant fit the fuel level sensor in as well

 

[EVO-00X]

I doubt it will fit Dean. It's too much money to spend on something you're not sure about. If anything you might scope an old DSM fuel cradle from US EBay first and pay like $20. Get it here, size it up first before committing to something like that.

 

[evo-gsr]

If the fuel pump cradle is the same as evo/gsr I have one here you could use to check fitment.

Yeh its not cheap but just trying different ideas out but I definitely need a decent fuel system for what im building.

Does anyone know if vr4 and evo/gsr are the same?

 

[evo-gsr]

I have no idea man...maybe someone who has an idea will help answer?

 

[4piknup]

They cant be. Ive never heard anyone asking for one. I bet they are different heights etc.

 

[MDK87]

The bolt pattern on the 1G one looks the same as GVR4.

 

[EVO-00X]

1G fuel pump cradle photo below. Looks similar up top to the GVR4/EVO/GSR but they go in heaps deep into a fuel tank.
They definitely wont fit a GSR/EVO tank, but Im not sure about how deep the GVR4 fuel tanks are.
You're going to have to find out what the overall length of the cradle assembly is and measure the GVR4 depth.
