datsunfreak Posted January 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 I would be interested in that. Mount it under the passenger seat so that the dash stays intact. Sounds like a really nice unit. I got it! Mount it under the passenger seat facing forward, mount a small mirror where the passengers feet go, shoot the remote at the mirror! ^_^ 2 Link to comment

DaBlist Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 I actually never said what pump, so... ^_^ Basic low pressure Facet... Have you used one of these types of pumps before? I will need to buy a electric fuel pump to run a 32/36 Weber and want to know what works good Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted January 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Have you used one of these types of pumps before? I will need to buy a electric fuel pump to run a 32/36 Weber and want to know what works good I'd say we've used that pump maybe 25+ times? Only downside is that it has to be mounted right by the tank (as mentioned it likes to push, not pull). Lots of pump options out there, you just want to keep it around 3psi max for a 32/36. Also used these with decent results. Not as good, but easier to find (usually at your FLAPS). 1 Link to comment

datsunfreak Posted January 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 All electric pumps need to be mounted as close th the tank as possible, if you do your research. You are correct that near the tank is always ideal, but some pumps do work just fine mounted away from the tank, or higher than the tank. I wouldn't, but they do. These have to gravity feed (not just be close to the tank) or they die a fairly quick death. 1 Link to comment
dimlight65 Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 I have used one of these http://www.summitracing.com/parts/hly-12-802-1under the hood in the past. I did strive to keep it as low as pooible for some gravity assist. 1 Link to comment

I did strive to keep it as low as pooible for some gravity assist. I was actually looking at this pump, but it got reviews as being really noisy. Was this your experience? One review said it needed rubber mounts to keep it from being louder than the engine. Link to comment

One review said it needed rubber mounts to keep it from being louder than the engine. Yeeeaaaaaaaaah, then there's that. On Lil'Wiggly it did drown out the sound of the engine, until the Nismo Race Cam #1 broke a couple rockers. Ain't NO drowning THAT racket! I didn't run the pump very long on your car, just long enough to fire up, and overheat, that abomination of a turbo engine that "someone" built. 1 Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted February 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Used the stock splash shield made to cover the tank inlet pipe as a fuel pump mount... Had some fun with the hose routing just because... :rofl: From the side the only visible bit is the lower mounting bolt for the pump... And as low as the car will be, I think it'll be all but invisible... :thumbup: 1 Link to comment
Kirden Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Ah, I see now. Sadly not sure that pump will work on the new coupe, as debris scares me on the road :P It would still work great on the 4 door since the tank is in the trunk, but oh well. Thanks for the info though, still looks like a really nice setup. Link to comment

Honestly, these are just loud enough that I hate having them inside the car... :rofl: Link to comment
Laecaon Posted February 8, 2015 Report Share Posted February 8, 2015 I like the Carter Rotary pumps, pretty quiet and reliable. Link to comment

datsunfreak Posted February 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Trying to decide what I wanted to do on the pedal pads since the 510 pads I have on there now don't fit well at all... Found these: They are pads for a D21 truck, but are a dead ringer for the stock 1200 pad. And they also fit perfectly. B) Being about $4-5 each new is a nice bonus too. :thumbup: 1 Link to comment

datsunfreak Posted February 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Oh god, can I vacuum that for you? Come on over! :thumbup: I've learned my lesson with that. I've already vacuumed it three times. I'm not doing it again until it's finished... :rofl: 2 Link to comment
Kirden Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 need to put some plastic down like you do when painting over carpet :P Those pedals look really nice. Time to change out the 4 door pedals "Only 45000 original miles" :ninja: 1 Link to comment
DaBlist Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Like these? Never have used one of those... I've read lots of good about this style of Carter Pump Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted February 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 I've read lots of good about this style of Carter Pump Never seen anyone use one, and we certainly haven't. May give it a look... Ordered two more wheels today (the -25 offset) and they should be here Tuesday. :thumbup: So if I can get the brake lines done in the next couple of weeks we may be able to finally roll it out for some better pics... B) Indy would be proud... 2 Link to comment
Laecaon Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 I've read lots of good about this style of Carter Pump Mostly they are pretty quiet and said to be the most reliable carb fuel pump. I have personally seen multiple of those little square pumps die. Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted February 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 I have personally seen multiple of those little square pumps die. So have I. :rofl: But it's the only pump that seems to work well on the A-series without a pressure regulator. These engines run best at 2-2.5psi. This pump runs right at 2.5psi. If it wasn't for me not wanting to have a regulator/gauge in the engine bay, I'd probably have run a different pump. These do tend to last a bit longer when rubber mounted (as I did), so here's hoping it lasts a few years at least. :thumbup: 1 Link to comment
