hey guys

i was installing my new whiteline swaybars on my r32 gtst the other day and when trying to get the new nolathane bushes inside the gtst (U shape) mounting cups (front swaybar) the bushes wont fit even with trying to squish them against the subframe they just wont squash into the cups.

is it possible that i need bigger cups or???

are gtr cups bigger than gtst?

any help would be greatly appreciated

have done already and they wont go in at all, even tried putting the bush round the sway bar and cup on and getting one bolt on one side of the cup done up completely then jacking the car up on the other side of the cup. i was able to lift the car completely off the jackstands without the bush squashing into the mounting cup.

any other suggestions

    • 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?
