BTW this is in the states. Here is the story. I have a r33 skyline gts with a R32 RB26 with a full race gt35R kit that ended up making a little over 460rwhp. The car was tuned and drove completely fine with the neglect of a small oil pan leak from the front of the motor. Now rather than checking the oil level like i should have knowing the problem, i took off like a bat out of hell trying to tune my boost controller. Now after repeated redline 8000K pulls on the highway, the motor just let go frown.gif

I have purchased a (new) JDM used R32mag-glass_10x10.gif motor and now started reading about this crank collar crap and am wondering what really happened? The motor is out of the car and rb25 oilpan is already swapped onto the new motor and am about to order the N1 oilpump.

My theory on JDM motors is that if you crack anything outside of the valve cover, it will never run in the same reliable way. I dont want to take the crank out of the motor cause then u never know when the $3K i just spent will just end up in the dumpster like the previous motor. It is a street car that i use only on the weekend, but i do love the strip as well as pulls against exotics reaching speeds over 140mph. What do i do with this oiling problem? Is the N1 pump with a 7K redline set by me enough to keep this new motor healthy?
