Did you check the lid of the IPDM? It shows location of fuses and relays inside the IPDM. The relay may be buried under something else. If it's not in the IPDM, the FSM (if you can find a copy; Nissan sent out take-downs to the sites that were hosting it) will tell you where it's located. Or wait a little bit and someone else will chime in.

I confirmed it is most likely an integral part of the IPDM and not individually serviceable. IE entire IPDM needs to be replaced to get a new fuel pump relay.

If you have a buddy that knows how to use a soldering iron (a dying art), he/she should be able to replace the relay.

I can do it but there's nowhere I can find that maps which is the fuel pump relay. I found which wires are ground and power to it but they're in separate harnesses within the IPDM.

I was also just reading the Track section of the forum where owners had secondary pumps mounted in the drivers side of the tank (LIKE the Z1 kit) and removed them due to overheating. I don't know that I'd have that issue considering I'm not tracking and never run the tank below 1/4 level though. Again, the Z1 kit is just very expensive for what's included, hard pill to swallow.

I'd love to find a solution using just fuel tank foam. Searched foam over in the track section and it doesn't look like anyone's been successful in that endeavor though.

...

Maybe someone will post a wiring diagram or other info to find the relay location.

Workshop manual shows it in the wiring diagram but not a physical location within the IPDM. I scoured the workshop manual, owners manual, google, this site, and FB yesterday for 2.5 hrs. to no avail.

Those that have installed the Z1 kit or the CJM RRP kit to my knowledge have never removed those kits once installed. Phunk's kit is bullet proof. I been running his kit for a couple of years now.

I believe you had fuel starve. You're not the first to have it or the last.

Oh I’m well aware of that issue. I’d love to know for sure though before throwing $500-1000 parts at it from Z1 & CJ only to find out its the pump, relay, cam sensor or crank sensor on the fritz.
