Thread: FYI: Nismo Fuel Pressure Regulator Types

OK so I've searched, googled etc and this is what I gathered about types A & B.. so I'm just confirming and trying to pool all the info into one thread..feel free to chime in and correct if necessary..

TYPE A

Type A NFPR is a direct bolt on for both Highport and Lowport but some straightening is required for the lowport

TYPE B

Type B NFPR on the other hand is a universal FPR and cannot be directly bolted on. It needs a universal fitting to be mounted.

the benefit of this is that you can mount the FPR at another/more convenient location while the downside is you have to buy the fitting (costs more)

This should be an "FYI" thread.. might want to change your subject line. But good idea.

done, thanks Wayne

I know this is an old thread and I'm bringing it back to life.. but what's the difference with the us and jp at the end of the type a versions? There's about a 60-100 dollar difference

My experience says not to buy either. I had one of the Type As fail on me and others have too. They used to be much cheaper, I think Nismo caught on and they raised the price. I was able to buy an Aeromotive AFPR for less and it is better made and can be rebuilt.

That experience sucks but I never personally had any issues when I had one back in the day. Maybe the quality isn't as great? I just like the style of it since it has an em feeling versus having to bolt the Aeromotive to the firewall.

For anyone who's interested, I talked to an authorize dealer today and they said it just depends on which warehouse that has them and the price will change accordingly.
