my pump died right around the same mileage youre at now

I'll be doing the work myself because the dealership here is worthless. I think I might have to just bite the bullet and replace the pump and filter. Is the filter in the same area as the pump? Or is it like domestic cars and have it in the rear bumper or some other fun filled place? I'll ask here before I jump on the parts area if anyone happens to have a fuel pump and filter on hand? I appreciate all the help so far, and appreciate all that is to come

I had something similar when I first got the Z back in 2009. LOL

Nope, I usually don't let it get below half and this was just regular city driving.

Also what other maintenance, upgrades, replacements should I do while I have the pump out?
