Default Compatible automotive fuel pump?

I've searched high and low, however knowing flow rates and pressure ranges is not enough to source a pump at a local automotive parts store.
Does anyone know of a compatible model, ideally with the proper plug?

If my information is correct, I'm looking for a replacement that can flow 110 lph @ 43 psi, with an operating range of 15-90psi.
From my online sleuthing, hints have been made that there is a Mitsubishi car that uses the same pump, I just can't seem to find it.

So I'm curious why is the connector important? Do we know if another fuel pump from another Honda model will work? Like a 600RR or something?

The connector is important to avoid splicing and/or soldering....which cheap aftermarket units from eBay all seem to require.

The original has three clips. Two green outer, and the centre.

More reading suggests there are many models from NAPA, etc. that should work.
Supposedly there's a match from a Honda Civic over several model years.

Yes, the pump for the 600RR is also compatible with the F4i. Also the Kawasaki ZX10R supposedly.

The Delphi FE0351 has the correct flow rate at 29 gph. It just lacks the proper connector.

EDIT: I'm pretty sure looking at the top of the case, the original is a Denso.

I remember seeing that a few years back while reading random info... somewhere. I know that isn't any help, but will post up if I'm able to find it again...

If it's truly compatible with the 600RR, then I would suggest reaching out to these folks. Their tech support can be reached by phone as well.

Now I gotta ask. Why?
Or, why not just get the F4i pump?

I'm sure there is a good reason, I'm just curious.

Yes, that is a reasonable question. The fuel pump itself (meaning just the motor) is not available from Honda. It is only sold with the entire module assembly with a retail price of over $500. You can go used from a salvaged bike like on ebay, but that's a crap shoot. I have not seen any place selling a F4i specific fuel pump by itself. The original poster seems to have done a lot of research on the details of the actual motor itself. The place that I mention indicates they do sell one for the 600RR. They may be unaware that it is also compatible with the F4i, or maybe they do but just don't indicate it. The price from the place I mention is sub $100 and to me makes it worth a phone call.

OK, this makes a whole of of sense now. I've never priced the assembly, thankfully! But it is good to know there are ways around having to buy the entire thing.

THANKS!!

I finally muscled off the stuck on outlet hose to reveal the part number.
It is indeed a Denso 195130-6550.
Not sure how to decode the last four digits as the same model is used in many applications. The exact same model is used on the '02-04 VTX1800
Here's an example of it in the Mitsubishi Eclipse at various flow rates: https://www.roadraceengineering.com/fuelpumptechtip.htm

The important info is that it's 38mm in diameter, 113mm in length, and 110lph.
Anything with a higher flow rate will probably work just fine since the fuel pressure regulator sets the rail pressure. I just wouldn't want to draw too much current unnecessarily.

Now I just need to match the strainer and fuel filter.
Here's an excellent picture thread: https://cbrforum.com/forum/f4i-main-...sembly-146028/
