Figures... How much do you pay for them?? I was debating on what i should run. I like the constants but they dont look nice... Kinda weird looking... Is it your relay that isn't giving it power??? You got them hooked up right paul LOL...

I forget how much I pay for them, but it's a pretty good deal.

The relay is definitely working. I have both pumps wired to the same relay. The 044 is definitely working correctly, but the Wally seems to be mostly dead. It's impeding the flow of the 044 and causing pockets of air in the fuel line. I first noticed when I went to drain the tank a couple days ago. I just unhooked the 044 to hear the Wally run by itself and it definitely sounds mostly dead. It's not making very mush noise at all, and it's not flowing anything. At least that confirms that I wired it correctly.

It sucks to say, but I may be waiting for a replacement pump to show up before I fire this thing up. I guess I can use that time to detail the car. God knows it needs it.
 
That sounds weird man... hrmmm.. Well patience is a virtue... I think thats how it goes LOL... I hate waiting but sometimes it is needed...
 
Holy Shit! We just had a huge garage fire. I pulled my 255 out to test it. I had it hooked to a battery and pumping race gas out of a container, when my pyro roommate lit a small puddle on fire about 6 feet away. Well, he didn't realize that there was a small stream on the ground running all the way to the container I was testing with. It was roaring in seconds, and after our first attempt to put the fire out, the container spilled and the fire was huge at that point. Burnt up my bench a bit, lost two hoodies trying to put it out, burned up a spare car battery, etc... I lost some hair on my right arm and at one point I had to put out a small fire on my driver's side fender as well. The Wally pump is definitely dead now - it was at ground zero. I no longer have a fire extinguisher out here after a buddy "borrowed" it and never came back. I had to haul major ass to the house and grab the 100 ft garden hose and haul ass back to the garage. My heart is still racing. Thank GOD i have a 100 foot hose and I just hooked it up yesterday. It was fully extended to reach the fire.

Could have been much worse. We got lucky this time.

Moral of the story: NEVER test fuel pumps with your pyro roommate in the same room. And always keep a fire extinguisher in the garage.
 
We were seconds from taking the car off the jack stands and pushing it out. I didn't want to give up on putting it out though. If the hose wasn't hooked up, I would have been screwed. It would have taken 30 seconds to find it and hook it up in the dark.

And the burn mark rubbed off on my fender. Got really lucky.
 
subscribing.

Great patience, great fab, excellent sticktuitiveness!!

My only reservation is the small, asymetrical 7cm Mitsu housing on the primary. I have no doubt it will work, but I also am not sold on the fact that that wee housing can flow enough exhaust for 600hp.

Very cool tho, props!!
 
Wow!! Used water to put out a gas fire? :nono:

That could have just made it spread even further.

Good thing everyone is ok though! Now back to work! Get that bi*** started.
 
Shit, Paul. Glad everything but the pump is OK!
 
Wow... I was kind of horrified that I might read that the car was burned while reading the update. Glad you and everything else is more or less fine!













On with the show!
 
On a positive note; I had this gem laying around. It's a 280 lph Denso fuel pump for the TT 2JZ Supra. This was a vendor freebie that I got from work a while back. Never thought I'd be using it though. Tight....

Here's a video of both fuel pumps in action. Kinda loud.

Yup, that's the one. It has the wide angle lens. I've had it for like 3-4 months now, and I've only had a chance to use it on my roommates motorcycle so far.

I have a few ideas for mounting, so I'll probably take multiple videos from different spots. Any recommendations?
 
I'd say any video is better than no video, so anywhere you can throw it!

The one video that I've liked had a camera mounted near the rear view mirror, but that was a road race so it gave you a very nice overview of the track. But I think it'd be cool to try and mount it different places and see what kind of views you can get.
 
very nice i hope your putting your timing belt cover back on after all that work
