I've just been a bit naughty and bought a D-jetro and all the relevant parts, plus a Greddy profect B II, but what fuel pump would you recommend for an RB26. Going to order the bigger injectors aswell ..... but what brand / model of pump is best ?

Does the D-Jetro give you ALS and launch control?

There, is that a sensible question? :)

Damn I have no idea - I was trying to buy a clutch and saw a deal I couldn't refuse ... no clutch .. but a new ECU .. :)

Walbro 280l/ph or better. You can go for a Tomei one at 320l/ph

It all depends on the BHP you want. This will affect your injectors too :wave2:

Launch control may help with the clutch slip :D No that's not sensible.

Adjustable fuel reg and guage needed with the pump?

ahh ... is there much cost extra from going for future proof sized ? ...

I'm thinking 350 at the wheels ... but could be happy to go for 400 maybe

As i understand it the standard pump in good condition is ok for circa 500 flywheel BHP but it makes sense to upgrade anyhow as the old one may be tired.
As Stu says, it depends what you want power wise and what injectors you are going for but the Nismo, Tomie and HKS direct replacement pumps are all about the same spec/money and will be ok for nearly 600BHP if that is enough for you? The Walbro one is not much of an upgrade, but is cheaper of course.
I just supplied a Tomie one to BenH for his high spec GTR soon to be mapped at Gary's with DJetro so may be worth seeing how he gets on.
