Walbro GSS340 255L/HR FUEL PUMP!!
 
Hey All!! My boss is here at Vivid Racing is letting me throw together a group purchase for you guys. I wouldn't say this is a company trying to sell a whole bunch of these, more me seeing how many people here on the boards really need one of these and me nagging my boss to get it to ya for dirt cheap :D

Walbro GSS340 255l/hr Fuel Pump: $90!!!!

The likelyhood you will ever find this pump for that cheap BRAND NEW is perdy slim. I need a minimum of 25 people to commit to this in order to get that pricing. Seeing as how incredibly universal this pump is (should work in ALL THIRD GEN F-BODIES, re-uses stock pump accessories) and is a MUST if you plan on modding your car, you'd be missing out hardcore if you don't pick it up at this price!

Shipping will be ~$7 in the US. Can do international. Please post a commitment to this GP, and send me an e-mail at bruce@vividracing.com as well so I know I can count on you. PLEASE, if you commit, make sure you are going to commit all the way through! Thanks a lot guys, and hopefully if this goes well I can talk my boss into letting me get other stuff for TGO!!

Bruce (90RS305)

ShiftyCapone 03-28-2005 11:57 AM

Count me in bruce!

Dewey316 03-28-2005 12:40 PM

whats the timeline on this. If its still a few weeks out, before I need to pay, I'll pick one up, just have laying around.

90RS305 03-28-2005 12:47 PM

Yes you still have plenty of time. I need a commitment of at least 25 before I can even order the parts. We are for all intents and purposes direct with Walbro, so it won't take very long to get the parts ordered in. Right now I just need the commitments...

Everyone, please post here AND e-mail me at bruce@vividracing.com with your commitment so I can keep better track of this group purchase! Thanks! :burnout:

SchwarzCamaroRS 03-28-2005 05:09 PM

IM IN!

RBob 03-28-2005 07:04 PM

110 to 130... depending on where you look.

90RS305 03-29-2005 10:31 AM

Yes, this should be a direct replacement for all F-Bodies. And the actual MSRP on it is $149.99, you guys are getting these hella cheap!

CrashedMatrix 03-29-2005 09:31 PM

Ill take one.

Metal Tech 03-30-2005 03:21 AM

I'm in for one.

Dewey316 03-30-2005 10:13 AM

Bruce,

Its going to be a few weeks before I have money... I'm only a solid commentment if this drags out a bit. If I had to pay tomorrow, I can't swing it.

Don't worry, so far I have 11 pumps (including you) and I'll need 25 before this can happen, so I think you've got some time ;)

Agent13 03-30-2005 03:57 PM

I'm in

86IROCNJ 03-30-2005 06:11 PM

Ah, what the hell, put me down too. I was looking at the Racetronix kit since it comes with so much but if this will be plug and play as well I'm down. thanks-Bryan

irocman7 03-31-2005 04:32 PM

Oh I am SOOOOO in. How do these usually work, do we all just buy with a code or something?

RS Chris 03-31-2005 04:45 PM

Stick my name on the list also.

90RS305 03-31-2005 05:43 PM

The way it will work is I am going to ask everyone to contact me with billing information (credit card/shipping address) once I have enough people, and then order the parts in and ship them out!

Willie 03-31-2005 07:22 PM

You gonna want one?

The timing is bad. And I don't need a pump at this time. I was thinking about two, making it a twin in-tank setup similar to my Cobra but I don't have the twin turbo setup running yet so I'm not sure if I even need to change my current setup.

What's most important now is that I've got other immediate expenses to deal with for the next month. I'll be free in about 30 days but that would be too late, I'm assuming.

Willie

CDN_87IROC 03-31-2005 08:15 PM

Sure .. I will take one.

I emailed you Bruce.

8Mike9 03-31-2005 08:37 PM

Put me in for one confirmed...possibly two as the time get's nearer...but one for sure.

irocman7 04-01-2005 12:47 PM

sent you an email, be sure to destroy the email when done. Thanks

86IROCNJ 04-02-2005 05:08 PM

Sent an email confirming. It sucks that they are normally so expensive b/c the walbro for my wrx is under $100. I guess it is all about supply and demand though. Keeps the prices down.

erummel 04-02-2005 10:13 PM

Dude count me in!:thumbsup:

steve8586iroc 04-03-2005 07:27 PM

For us runnig tbi's it looks to me that the 190 would supply all our tbi needs and then some. Would it be possible to order either the 190 or the 255 lph pump?

Steve

JP84Z430HP 04-05-2005 11:43 AM

Let's talk about me! Being in on this one!

I'm in for one now, possibly 2 when it comes time to ante up.

Will the 340 run fine at 60 -65 PSI? If so it would be perfect for my s-10 with a Vortec swap.

I'll send an email when I get home!

86IROCNJ 04-14-2005 08:01 PM

What happened with this? Any updates?

90RS305 04-14-2005 08:13 PM

Yes sorry, I've been unable to access the internet for a while now, finally got back on. Right now there are a few kinks in the works, for I am no longer with Vivid Racing, but I am currently talking to my old boss to make sure he will still let us go through with it. I can't imagine why he wouldn't though. I will post as soon as I have more information...

Bruce (90RS305)

86IROCNJ 04-14-2005 08:21 PM

Thanks for the update. Let us know.

erummel 04-18-2005 03:58 PM

Bruce, and update as to where this is at?

erummel 04-18-2005 03:58 PM

Bruce, any update as to where this is at?

Buddy 04-19-2005 10:42 PM

Is this still a go? If it is, put me on the list.

Buddy 04-21-2005 03:51 PM

Also, is that $90 for just the pump? or the kit as well? There's another site on the net with pumps for $93, so this may be a competitive price range. I typed in "Walbro fuel pump" on google and went to a few of the first listings.

porkyzilla 04-25-2005 09:55 PM

is it still available if so im in

Buddy 04-26-2005 07:17 AM

Actually, you'll have to take me off the list now. Sorry, and thanks anyway.

SchwarzCamaroRS 04-28-2005 01:48 AM

UPDATE!!!

this is 90RS305 aka Bruski speaking through Schwarzy

bruski will have his internet back on within 24 hours, he is still negotiating the pump deal with vivid and will let us know what happens as soon as he can... thanks for your patience

Falx 05-07-2005 10:53 AM

If this is still going on, I might as well jump aboard. Put me down for one. Can't beat the price...

SchwarzCamaroRS 05-07-2005 02:51 PM

SchwarzCamaroRS 05-07-2005 02:51 PM
