Bought this external oil pump kit to use in my 26/30 build, but my engine builder believes it will be overkill for my street driven application at the expense of my air conditioning, so I've decided to stick with an upgraded internal pump instead.

This kit allows you to ditch the notorious internal oil pump setup and take those failure prone components out of the equation. For those who don't have a spare 10k to dump on dry sump, this is the next best thing to insure your expensive engine build or high revving race engine that will see more action than mine.

Everything is in new/unused condition - I believe the previous owner had it test fitted to their engine before they decided to part out their project, so there are handling/tool marks on the parts, but they otherwise look great.

My kit includes:

- Ross Tuffbond Race Balancer (306510, rated to 1000hp), with 20% and 7% underdrive pulleys (protects your water and P/S pumps at high RPM), gilmer belt drive and belt guard washer

- Moroso Single Stage External Pump w/ gilmer drive

- Bracket for pump mounting (replaces your air con compressor)

- Gilmer belt

- Hoses/lines with AN fittings

What you see is what you get. Only thing I don't have is bolts for the bracket. You'll also need to tap your sump to run a line to the pump.

From my googling, the balancer is RB30 fitment - you MAY be able to use this on an RB26, but please do your own research - I'm unfamiliar with crank/ancillary similarities. Likewise, I believe the AC bracket is designed for an RB30 - I don't know if the AC mounts differ on RB26.

How it will look setup (different parts but much the same deal)

To buy a similar kit brand new, you're looking at around 3k from Ross Performance:

I'm looking for $1800ono - same cost as a Tomei internal pump. I may be willing to separate the pump/bracket/belt/hoses as I can still use the balancer in my build.

Located western suburbs Melbourne. Happy to post at buyer's expense.

:cheers:

    • Pre-empting heat management  1. The Kraken manifold will be ceramic coated 2. Just purchased some peel and stick heat shielding stuff from car builders, I'll cover some of the firewall behind the dump and a little on the cam cover, this will be done prior to installation as I have ample room to get where I need to now before that realestate has more bits in the way, I'm also planning to modify the OEM heat shield to go back on, but that won't happen until after installation so I know where to hack it up, I'll also cover it with some some peel and stick to neaten it up after the hacking 3. As the dump is stainless with a flex joint coating isn't really a option, and wrapping isn't recommended for a stainless dump, so once it is installed I'll grab some shielding from car builders to cover the dump, as it has some stand off, it "shouldn't" cause any issues and it "should" just keep the radiant heat away from " melty engine bay stuff" Not for heat management, but I've grabbed some more black crinkle coat to paint all the shiny intake pipes, I'll pick the pipe work up prior to installation and use the paint booth and big oven at work to cure them, I'll then wrap them with some bubble wrap so they stay nice during installation

Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
    • YO- have been searching and searching for an a31 chassis plug pinout, or someone who knows which wire is for tach.  ceffy was flooded past dash during a hurricane.  having an electrical gremlin appear. tach is wonky reading consistent with a short, and on occasion the right side of my speedo lighting will flicker just for a second then go back to normal.  if no pinout available does anyone know if the tach harness opens or branches anywhere behind the dash? im suspecting a possible root behind the radio as there are more shorts in that area on the accessory loop.
    • Means something is not set up right, tune/calibration related.  
    • Finally replaced the previous temporary mesh indicator surrounds (temporary was the last 10+ years 😂) with a 3D printed GTR style version for the front indicators. I think it looks a lot nicer than the old setup and at least the indicators now point in the correct direction rather than angled off. Needed a little bit of tweaking to deal with the intercooler piping but got there in the end. Old and new photos below.
