You replaced it with a stock fuel pump or a 255lph-hp pump? Did you try replacing the fuel filter? They're only like $4 may as well try it.

How low on gas are we talking.

If you have a Walbro pump your car is also running rich and you will need a Nismo fuel presure regulator adjust the fuel presure back to its original setting. The presure you are looking for is 44 PSI with the vacume hose off of the FPR or about 36 PSI with it on.

Does you car seem t shut off when you go into a corner also. If that being the case the fuel pump box in the tank was not put back properly and it is either leaning to the side or it is now floating around in the tank. I have seen this happen a few times.

There is also a return line that goes back to the box if that was not put on, or came loose the gas coming back from the motor will not refill the pick up box and it will run dry.
