Supra TT fuel pump ?

[bobo2986]

Would it be an alright idea to just go ahead and buy a used Supra TT fuel pump for less money or is it not worth saving the cash and better to go for a new one?

 

[doug]

Well it depends. Depends on how old the pump is and how much they're asking for it. A new one is around $180-- how much can you get the used one for and how old is it?

 

[bobo2986]

Well I can get a used one for roughly 100 dollars, I would be buying it from a shop that specializes in Toyota Supras but I'm not sure how used they are; I supose I could call the owner and ask if he knows how old they are though

Used pump is not worth $100. You can get a brand new walbro 190lph pump (about same flow) for $88 from www.autoperformanceengineering.com
Look around for a used 3000GT VR-4 pump, I bought one for $50. The only thing better about using the VR-4 or supra pump over the walbro 190 is that they are quieter.

If you're set on a Supra pump, $100 is pretty good. Just remember that you're going to need to use an AFPR with that pump because you'll outflow the stock one and run way too rich.

the supra pump is 260 ot 265lph ?

260 > 255 > 190 ?

thanks for the advice and thanks for the links guys, I'll probly go with the new walbro 255 pump from import evolution. peace

 

[doug]

You'll need an AFPR for that one too.

 

[bobo2986]

why exactly would I need an AFPR for that pump, can the stock regulater not handle that fuel pump?

 

[doug]

If you're talking about the 255HP, then yes, that is correct. That pump will outflow the stock regulator. Opinions are divided over whether the regular 255 requires an AFPR, but the 255HP definitely needs one.

 

[bobo2986]

o alright, thanks doug much appreciated

Mind you the reason alot of people go with the Supra pump over the Walbro is because of the noise factor. The walbro 255 is more commonly known as the whinebro. The supra pump is quiet as stock.

Supra TT and VR-4 fuel pumps are made by Denso. Denso pumps are quiet (for the most part)
