Hey would like to say a big THANK YOU to the forum and the guys in the forum that helped me with my perform my first service ever on my first car ever. My 95 r33 gts-t ran ok b4 SAU but if it wasnt for you guys i would have probably ended up spending heaps of money on a service. After SAU my skyline runs excellently all i have to do now to complete my service is coolant flush and gear oil change which i will be doing this weekend everything else is done and I did it on my own using the guides people put together in this web community. This feels great especially since I am not what u would call a car guy. Changed my head unit, stopped the annoying arial from staying up when HU powered on plus still get all stations loud and clear, changed plugs, oil, oil filter, air filter and was having idling issues after the plug change thought i mucked it up but used the forum and found out tht maybe a good aac valve and afm valve cleaning would do the trick did those today and the baby purs like a kitten and again I did it all by myself. Thanks Again SAU and believe me I will be definitely the #1 user.

      Yeah. "New pump" does not have to mean "massive pump".

      Well, can you still get an OEM pump, and by the time you're buying a Nismo/N1 etc, just buy another aftermarket pump. It's better to have the pump able to flow more if its needed, than for your pressure to drop off. At any point in time, you're replacing the oil pump in a rebuild. Aftermarket pumps are likely going to be a better economical choice, and they don't have any negatives, even if they can flow more.   Also, when you're saying "replace the pump gears" are you meaning leave a 25+ year old housing in the engine with unknown wear, and just put new gears in? As that sounds silly to me, especially if you do have that minute amount of wear, that means your new pump gears now have a little bit more clearance beside them, which means, whelp, you may not get to build a lot of oil pressure or make a lot of flow.

      Right, but if you replace the pump gears + put a spline or sine drive gear on the crank on a Nismo/OEM/N1/etc pump at that point do you really still want more flow/oil pressure? Let's say this is a the aforementioned "keep it simple" build, no more than ~400 kW at the crank.

      Strength. And on the early RB26, full engagement of the pump drive.

      I really don't understand the point of aftermarket oil pumps if your particular engine doesn't need more oil pressure. As far as I can make sense of it the problem seems to be cavitation from sucking air, maybe the pump gear design with how it interfaces with the OEM crank, and maybe the backing plate screws wanting to loosen themselves. How does flowing more oil fix these issues?
