Posted December 16, 20231 yr comment_660238 View Advert Mounting bracket for NISMO electric fuel pump I want to put a NISMO fuel pump on my early-run '72 but my car did not come with the bracket to mount the pump. I understand this part was standard from the '73 model onwards. The photos show you what it generally looks like and where it's mounted by the rear diff. Living in Ohio, there are probably few to no early Zcars in boneyards anywhere near me. So I'm asking any of you sunny-weather types who have access to lots of early models to let me know if you would pull one for me. My option is to fabricate one myself and I have quite enough to do already.

December 16, 20231 yr comment_660247 I think I still have one from an early 260Z. I can check tomorrow and see if it is still in the hoard. It would likely have surface rust and need clean up as the car was out in the bushes for years.

December 20, 20231 yr comment_660377 I would be interested.. 😉 Also someone mentioned that Taka-something is remanufacturing these. I have no idea who they are, but a link would be much appreciated.

December 20, 20231 yr comment_660380 I looked for mine today and found I have two different ones. I think the small one is off the 73 240Z and the big one is from a 74 260Z. Not as pretty as the new ones ^^^ but not as much either.

December 20, 20231 yr Author comment_660381 Thanks, Mike. I'll start a dialog with this supplier. I just never figured that I'd pay almost as much for an L-bracket as I'm going to pay for a fuel pump.

December 20, 20231 yr Author comment_660382 Thanks for the effort, Terrapin Z. I'll take the smaller one. We can discuss details in PMs. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/68726-parts-wanted-mounting-bracket-for-nismo-electric-fuel-pump/#findComment-660382 Share on other sites More sharing options...
December 21, 20231 yr comment_660389 Where and how did these brackets mount and would a "72" have the provisions for mounting?

December 21, 20231 yr comment_660390 @Terrapin Z I'm pretty sure you are correct about which bracket belongs on which car. I'm positive the larger one is for the 74.

December 21, 20231 yr Author comment_660396 @SteveE There may or may not be pre-drilled holes in the subframe - I need to look at my car tomorrow - but, regardless, Makita makes an awesome drill for just such occasions.

Yes, there are holes pre-drilled in the frame. I found mine over the summer -- behind the passenger rear wheel and near the tank. Sorry can't find the pic.

December 24, 20231 yr comment_660450 I'll be purchasing this after the new year and installing one of the Nismo pumps. It looks like the pumps are readily available on Ebay. Does anyone know if there was a period-correct pre-filter for this setup?
