Identifying Oil pump

I've done a bit of research and thinking that the oil pump I have just bought off eBay advertised as a Vl turbo oil pump is actually a rb20 or rb25. The gears are  11mm thick and there's 12 unlike rb26 which has 11  

Can anyone identify it at all

What is the in internal diameter of the drive gear? I believe the stock RB30 pump may be smaller than the other RBs but I don't know about the turbo version. What engine do you plan to use it on?

Which measurement were u asking about? 

As above:   internal diameter of the drive gear - it should be in the region of 44mm

I ask because I have had people report they can't get their RB30 pump over the crank collar (which is about 43.78mm) whereas all other RBs fit no problem. But maybe N/A and turbo are different.

And as I asked before - what engine do you want to use it on?

    • I'm late to the party on this one but good to see common sense has prevailed and the turbo kit is coming. 
    • She's looking good Greg. Colour suits it perfectly 👍
    • I had a look at the FAB9 EFR kit, around $8500 AU before delivery, so add in shipping, installation, consumables and tuning, I believe the price difference would be negligible  And whilst I am paying top dollar at MX5 Mania, if I have any issues with the kit they are local for support,  and from my experience, will happily go out of their way to help, hell, I've purchased parts from them and asked "how do I install or remove parts" and they have fitted a few of them for free, this means more to me than saving a few thousand dollars And yes, 99% of the time I just plod around in the car, that may change once I start hearing turbo whooshy noises, but, as I have 3 family members is the constabulary, even when I'm up it, it is only up to the speed limit, or occasionally, but rarely, overtaking on the Hwy (I just plod in the left lane typically and enjoy the drive) Plus the kids would never let it go if I got booked speeding, Jackie is constantly getting critiqued by the kids about her driving, which I think is hilarious, and tell them that she is "bringing shame to our family", so heaven forbid if I ever got done speeding, after all my mouthing off about her driving, I would never live it down, and it would be another thing she would bring up any chance she got Like the time I got drunk about 15 years ago and fell out of a cab, which gets brought up at least a few times every year since it happened Good times
    • True, might get it looked at. Found out you can in fact flatten the 12v battery relatively easily too the other day (kids lefts the hazards on) so meaning to get that checked in the new year. What's odd is it'll blow cold from both vents if you have the ac down as low as poss (18), but anything else the passenger one blows warmish. Also has been summer since I got it obvs but noticed it didn't seem to want to blow hot last night when we had a cold snap.
