Water Pump ... Help !

[33GTT]

Just bought another 33, and am doing the 100K service,,

the pump I got from Bursons is the wrong type,,

The one on the car has the larger impeller, but, it also has one hole (the small 10mm bolt) at a different position,,

Which pump do I have?

Any help fromthe pro's please?

VL Commodore water pump, off the RB30, is a direct replacement for the one on the RB25DET. Cost me about AUD 80 from Repco when I had the 100k service done on my R33. The GT-R timing belt was also a direct fit...

Yer the pump they gave me is the RB30/ RB25 pump, but mine has the larger impeller and the 10mm bolt holt is 5-6mm further left than the replacement pump that they gave me,,

They tell me that this pump is not available and that I will need to get mine reconditioned,,

Has anybody else had this problem?

Does the GTR pump have this variation on the bolt holes?

hold on.....before you come to conclusions....................................

get more opinions rather than 1 person before you make a decision

its important for you...... to read through this post....

someone has actually compared it.....

some of the bolt holes dont actually line up

but the RB26dett actually works on all RB engines.

and a person has posted trying an RB25 and 26 pump on his RB30.....and one hole did not line up.......

becareful

these OPS would be the people to PM....

haha that was the thread i had up about a month ago - went to alot of trouble researching pumps hahah

i got 2 pumps here for sale, one of which im pretty certain will fit your car

$28 express posted

used but havent been used for very long as i too used the wrong pump, hence had to take out the one a mechanic replaced (he used a R33 one grrr) and put in a genuine r34 one

see my signature, can include the gates heavy duty timing belt too - both are only 35000ish kms old. no issues at all.

Does the impeller fit in the housing?

Ive fitted a number burso rb30 pumps in rb25 and whatever else motors and they fit fine...except that bolt hole (i know the one). i had my doubts at first whether it would leak but no you just do em up no probs. obviously a bit or aero sealant (otherwise known as that brown sticky stuff that never solidifies ((loctite 3a)) or similar stag or indian) never goes astray but it will be fine.

hahah.

Thanks guys,

I took the info printed out and the pics to Bursons, (They put it in their books lol), They got me in the correct pump (Japanese one too) retailed at $250.00, they gave it to me for $90.00 so cant complain,, but yer man, the info was a saviour,,

And as for the other pumps and belt,, I sold the car to my Brother and am looking for another one,, prefer a GTR this time, so I may be in touch,,,

cheers

yeah as i thought, the workshop/mechanic you went to had no clue....

they obviously needed the Part no# to source it/ring around.

at least you got it sorted
