crap. i park there all the time, have the datto now, but in 1 week I'll have the GTR

I try to park away from every other car in the place, the bastard was probably parking, hit you, then thought I better move to another section of the centre so he doesn't catch me. probably an old person in a volvo mate

hope it doesn't cost too much to fix up

Same thing happened to me the night before the Newcastle Cruz a coupla weeks back but it was minor, I parked my '33 out the front of my mates place while we were inside having a session, then suddenly we all heard a light noise like two cars had made contact, I didn't bother going outside at the time to look cause we were all pretty bent and we weren't actually sure if anything did happened. I found the scuff mark on my front bumper a few days later. I know who it was because of the color of the mark left on my car but the stupid bitch didnt even have the decency to come to the door to let us know. If it was me who done that, I would've at least left a note on their window or something. Ever since then, the girl pretends that she didnt see us everytime we cross path...... guilty conscience maybe.......

    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
    • Don't do what I did, use a 300000km old housing with billet gears. The old pump probably was clearanced with saw dust, Edward Lee's special engine treatment sauce and a good odo wind back. I had oil pressure issues, then replaces pump with new housing, new billet gears and 2x track day later binned a motor due to other oil related issues due to a previous engine builder. Long story short, buy a M2 or 3 or 4 N55/S55/S58 and enjoy life.
    • Yeah. "New pump" does not have to mean "massive pump".
    • Well, can you still get an OEM pump, and by the time you're buying a Nismo/N1 etc, just buy another aftermarket pump. It's better to have the pump able to flow more if its needed, than for your pressure to drop off. At any point in time, you're replacing the oil pump in a rebuild. Aftermarket pumps are likely going to be a better economical choice, and they don't have any negatives, even if they can flow more.   Also, when you're saying "replace the pump gears" are you meaning leave a 25+ year old housing in the engine with unknown wear, and just put new gears in? As that sounds silly to me, especially if you do have that minute amount of wear, that means your new pump gears now have a little bit more clearance beside them, which means, whelp, you may not get to build a lot of oil pressure or make a lot of flow.
    • Right, but if you replace the pump gears + put a spline or sine drive gear on the crank on a Nismo/OEM/N1/etc pump at that point do you really still want more flow/oil pressure? Let's say this is a the aforementioned "keep it simple" build, no more than ~400 kW at the crank.
