No such thing. The gasket for the standard pump can be used with the N1 pump.

Yeh i was thinking might have to try and reuse the standard gasket if its still in good condition when it gets taken off. the place i got the pump from said they dont come with gasket's but they have them when trying to buy one from them there telling me they have run out. just have to give the original one a go i guess.

Thanks.

goto nissan a new one for a rb26 oil pump is like $10 or so, dont risk using an old one unless u wanna pull the pump later because of a leak. You can use abit of gasket goo on it to but dont put too much or it could block the oil feed inlet/outlet.

if your north of river in Perth try Northside Nissan in Wangara, ask for Steve Barnes he is one of the main spare parts guys and knows gtr's well as he has one of his own and is very helpful.

gasket in a tube works fine.

Never use sealants where a gasket should be, except as a last resort. This is especially important with something like this oil pump. Think about what happens when you tighten the bolts....the sealant gets squeezed out of the joint face and some of it is squeezed out into the oil passages. How much is dependent on how heavy handed you are, but it can affect oil flow in bad cases. There's a reason Nissan used a gasket.

i got a few spare here if you get stuck. DO NOT use only gasket goo.... engine failure is only a gallery blockage away...

      R32 goes out in right curves

      That's true. However, this problem has started since the tuning. First time with the return journey from the tuning. But yes, the pipe was clogged with dirt and rust. That was certainly due to age

      Great info @tidi0x  Will definitely be handy for others and maybe me if I decide to keep the shit box H pattern.

      Bumping this up one last time.... I wanted to follow up on the clutch slave issue. I realized that what the issue comes down to is the pocket is flat milled, and the cylinder does not want rest flat. So in order to mount it correctly you will need to make a spacer for the fingers so the cylinder is floating. I took two plates of aluminum, drilled some holes and was good. I did still need to make the relief cuts in the bell housing, as even with the spacer the bleed section still interferes. The OE bell housing the mounting holes are raised from the housing.

      If the event in USA goes ahead will be interesting as it seems the rules will get more cars over here. Apparently the track is laguna seca too. Yeah s15, if I get a the lower dash trims, centre console and change front cross member to standard LCA position will fit clubsprint. See how rules are as i would rather do complete widebody than a bolt on flare to run the 295 with proper clearance.

      If the car is legal height I can't see it being an issue. Found a thread on reddit that might offer some insight.   I got a ticket from a copper in QLD for my S15 being too low. They had this wheel thing on a stick that they put under the car and it hit my exhaust. Anyhow went to an exhaust shop to get the exhaust tucked up/hung a little higher and I wound the coilovers up a smidge. Don't think I even had to go back to the police station unlike when I got defected for having a carbon bonnet when I brought the S15 from the ACT to QLD and had to replace it and then rock up at a police station and have a yougish female officer who knew nothing about cars confirm that I had changed bonnets. Should have just painted the carbon bonnet yellow to match the rest of the car lol
