I've got an original '87 GN (only the wiper motor, power antenna, brakes and exhaust have been replaced) and my mechanic says the fuel pump is about to go (only 28 psi at idle).

I don't race it at the track, but never say "never". I like it being nearly 100% original, but a few improvements is not out of the question.

So, my question is "Should I replace the fuel pump with an original fuel pump (lifetime warranty) or should I upgrade to an aftermarket pump like WALBRO (1 yr warranty). BTW, the mechanic wants about $400 to replace with original spec fuel pump. Is that a fair price being that the pump is in the gas tank?
