Gonna have to replace the one on my '75 280Z most likely, and I'm eventually gonna be doing higher horsepower applications (v8 swap). What fuel pumps are most people using on their S30's?

I'm running the MSD high pressure fuel pump, costs about $100 from summit and flowsenough fuel for like 600hp (kinda noisy but I have no interior)

as for the wheel studs, are you wanting to keep the 12x1.25 or you wanting to move to a more common thread pitch? the moroso 1/2 racing studs a popular apparenlty the fit without much work and come in a few different length's to better fit the desired application? are you wanting to use some huge thick spacers to fit high positive offset wheels? I know there are bolt on spacers available that I'd recomend ahead of the thick or stacked slipons

No, I don't want to run a huge *** spacer, but after putting on my konig rewinds in a test fit today, they look a little snug to the struts. I was gonna run like a 5MM or so just to ensure no tire rub.

And I have no prob sticking to 12 x 1.25, they're the same as my subaru :P

Ya know... now that I think about it... the studs that my subaru uses may fit....

I will test it monday! They're about the length I want. Muahahahaha.

And that MSD is an inline pump? Just plugs right in where the stock one was?

yup, both pumps use ring terminals, the only problem is that the MSD uses and 1/2" inlet and when I was running rubber hose up to the pump it would suck itself shut where I had the hose bent a bit, I have since replaced ti with a section of aluminum tubing with no problems
