Hey all,

I'm chasing some feedback on the latest PRP billet crank-mount oil pump for RBs, specifically oil pressure when hot and all that.

I'm tossing up between that and the Tomei. The PRP has a slightly oversize gearset apparently (which is great for increasing oil flow all things being even), but not sure how it compares to the Tomei which has a much larger gearset and three piece gears.

 

Cheerz!

I've been running one for over 10 years. Never an issue with pressure and seen plenty of track time.

no point trying to reinvent the wheel

Valid 👍🏻
 

What is your oil viscosity and pressure at idle at say 90deg with the Nitto?

15-50 Penrite 10tenths
around 30psi at idle at 90c Coolant temp but thats after a run.

I'd be talking with who is building engine and go with their recommendation.

    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
    • I should video mine, will prob do it tomorrow    Between 1st and 3rd, you could fit another two gears. That is how loose and wobbly it is   horrible:(
    • Throws on the FS5R30A in most Nissans of this era are actually quite short and direct compared to any remotely modern BMW with the S6-53 transmission. Those things have throws a mile long with rubbery vague everything. Synchro issues combined with a short shifter is just going to break everything even faster.
    • Only thing I'd add...is on recommendation from a good diff shop, I've used mineral oil in my diff including the race car for years. The synthetics can be too slippery and glaze the gears
