marcg Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 Has anybody on this list used an electric water pump on thier project car? I am considering it for my 450Z conversion, but am unsure on thier reliability on a daily driven car. This option would make my life alot easier as the VH45DE engine runs the power steering and water pump on the same belt. Since I am going to an electric power steering system I would have to custom fabricate a belt tensioner for the water pump alone. More work! Any feed back would be greatly appreciated. I've been looking at: 1) The Meziere system http://www.meziere.com/index.php?pgName=wp336 which are sold through Summit racing; 2) The Davies Craig system http://www.daviescraig.com.au/main/display.asp?pid=8 sold through Pegasus Racing 3) The CSR system http://www.csr-performance.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=SC&Category_Code=WP1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tube80z Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 I use the Davies Craig with pump controller on my race car. It seems to work as well as the belt driven pump did for me. I don't know how long the pump is rated for continuous duty. It does make wamring up quicker and is nice to circulate the coolant when it's turned off hot.
