Fuel Questions
Hi Guys, wondering if anyone can tell me the fuel pressure of a Walkinshaw and what type of fuel pump they run.
Also looking at a brake upgrade, anyone else put one of these kits on their cars and what type did you go for ![]()

Not sure on the fuel pump, but the brake upgrade can be easy as. The VT twin piston upgrade is pretty simple. You can buy it as a complete kit, with calipers, rotors, adapter hubs, braided lines, bearings etc...
The rotors are 297mm. To fit them up you need adapter hubs on the front. You need a 1" Master Cyl, which the walky has. I fitted it to my VL Turbo, which has the same brakes as the walky. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/VT-COMMODORE-...QQcmdZViewItem Here is a complete kit. Cheers, Craig

Wouldn't mind putting them on the Walki, at least you'd be a little more confident with braking...spose you can always remove it and refit the original should I ever sell the car?

By the sounds of it, you will need to get your fuel rail modified to fit!
I will ask a mate who has one, but I haven't spoken to him in ages.
