this is all good to hear, i have had my rb26 rebuild with eagle rods and acl pistons and rings but using a new standard r32 oil pump(early) and was looking at bigish kinda power. say 350awaks

Rebuilding your engine for that kind of power and not upgrading your oil pump/oil pump drive is crazy and now leaves your new engine with a serious weak point

Agreed, adding to that water pump, tensioners etc etc

the engine has the lot exept the new oil pump, well it does have a new pump. just an OEM one. i was running out of fund with the rebuild rather quickly so an oil pump like a nismo, trust, jun etc was out of the question.

wasnt too keen on the n1 as i have heard about 50% of them that are installed seem to fail, (i have heard this not saying its the truth or they are bad or what every). which actually turned me off the path of using one. so rather than wasting the cash having everything prep'd for an n1 oil pump and it failing the standard pump was decided. as im not looking at increasing the rev's over 7500. it was always out of the question in my mind to increase it that far.

eventually if i decide on going big power. ie 400+kws at the wheels i will have to budget to replace my oil pump with a decent name one. and i guess then i will need my crank collared as well. so im guessing another engine out job. so 5k for the lot this time?

    • I don’t really have any ideas how to set the timing on the CAS 😂, sounds like the top, sounds like it maybe misfiring as well as ticking,  got the box sorted 😌, must of been a air bubble on the clutch side
    • Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.
    • Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
    • Wow that's a steal, you've done well there.
