hey man

im in the same boat. i have done some research and have seen most friends with gtr's using the hi octance racing aluminium 8L sumps. They are bigger than the trust ones.

Hi octane also make them in cast steel now too. They wanted $700 just for the sump and $1200 all up if you send your standard sump and they will weld it up and modify the oil pick up.

The aluminium one was $1500 all up......

im still tossing up which way to go. Already have a tomei pump. Just need the rocker cover baffles, which they sell to. or you can get the mines ones from greenline.

They other thing is the oil restrictor in the block (lucky i have it already) and they other issue is drilling out the head to return/drain the oil back to the sump. I didnt do this so im spewing. I have read on here that its important to have.

i guess you could probably do a search on here and read more.

Good luck

HiOctane one is great, but about 3 times the price of the Trust sump extension, which has been used on many track cars and proven to work just fine.

      @Kinkstaah yeah I initially checked with Chequered as I've used them with a previous car. But they have stopped sourcing and installing Nistune chips. They only do tuning now. I did not want to pull out my ECU and send it away somewhere to have the chip installed. That would mean no driving the Skyline

      Should have checked that.  On the plus side, I got my Bluetooth adaptor.

      🚨 Need Advice! Overcharged for Engineering Report 🚨

      Each province differs a bit but we only do mandatory vehicle inspections here for heavy vehicles (Think Ford F350 and up). Those inspections are done by mechanics that are approved by the government. Besides that, it's a free for all as long as the car looks stock.  I asked because I love seeing how engineering differs from country to country. Here in Canada, all designs must be stamped and signed before they can be brought to fruition. (I.E Bridges, structures, Electrical panels, machines, literally everything shy of a wooden table) This can only be done by a professional engineer or professional engineering technologist. Both are protected titles, but the latter having more of a limited scope in what they can stamp. To become a professional engineer, you must complete a 4-5 year bachelors degree in your field of engineering, be part of an engineering order and undergo 4 years of apprenticeship, testing and mandatory continues education. Same story for engineering technologists, but a 3 year associates degree in some form of engineering technology will suffice. If you do not comply, or pretend you're an engineer or technologist, off to jail you go. If you stamp a design that fails, off to jail you go. If you stamp a design that fails and kills someone (I.E Bridge collapse) Off to jail you go for a very long time, your family will be ridiculed on the news, neighbours will surround your home with pitch forks and your dog will disown you.  Same for specialised trades... Example Electricians must undergo 1.5 years of post high school education, 4 years of apprenticeship, testing and hold proper licences. It's for the best, but then we also wonder why we're so short on engineers and tradesmen haha. We also have professional engineers who were only school smart but have no idea how a drill works. They generally go straight into management roles out of school which is also for the best.

      Not currently, I'm at the school where we teach people to build bridges and other fun things that involve making, or breaking things

      I have a friend who has used Chequered Tuning and CMS. Went to CMS when Chequered had a long wait time which is kind of the norm (for good reason). Was very happy - I'm pretty sure the very simple thing you're asking will be simple.
