Oil/water Pump Upgrade

[druzilla32]

hey,

not long ago my oil pump died resulting in a dead RB26.

what oil pump should i get? N1?

ive seen a Greddy one on Nengun for $1282.64 delivered.

are there any cheaper ones then this?

also where can i get a water pump from? cant seem to find one for the rb26.

should i get a sump baffle as my car will frequently be going sideways?

where can i get this sort of stuff from?

umm water pump just buy it from nissan. yes you can get a cheaper oil pump than the Greddy again buy it from nissan. either stock or N1 if you wish. sump baffles are a good idea if you are doing any track work on semi slicks as for drifting why you want to drift a GTR is beyond me. they are not really suited for it. you'd be better off with a GTST, rwd and nearly 300kgs lighter!!

I just bought an N1 water pump from Unique Autosports - $405 to Perth

And will probably get my N1 oil pump from there too as I can't find anywhere cheaper. Apparently you can just get a standard oil pump and put a stiffer spring in it but I don't know how to do that so I'll just pay for the N1 pump instead

thanks,

anybody got a number for nissan in brisbane?

im using the gtr cuz i want a quick street car aswell as being able to drift it. im assuming it would be about the same weight as the drift monaro if not lighter.

+ i wouldnt mind doing some track work etc etc.

anyway, do you think a sump baffle is a good move for this?

i will be getting an N1 oil pump

do you have the web addy handy?

Crap, I didn't know that

So what % flow benefits does the N1 oil and water pumps add over the normal ones, besides costing more?

It's more about reliability at sustained high revs i believe, do a search for some of Roy's posts regarding this, or he might just find his way in here if you're lucky!

no..

sooo lol

are you saying its more.... or less

i mean..

buying the oil pump, would it be cheaper calling nissan and asking for an N1 pump, or getting it through justjap

Lets just say that with car dealers if you needed a spare washer and u could get 1 from a hardware store for around 5 cents, the geniune one a car dealer would sell you would be around $5 instead.

Just Jap will be signficantly cheaper than purchasing it from Nissan

[JH32]

As an eg. I called a Nissan dealer here in Perth. They quoted me :

R32 GTR Oil Pump - $705 incl. GST

R32 GTR Water Pump - $427.50 incl. GST

They weren't N1 pumps ... just the rego stuff

[BU5TER]

List price for R33 N1 water pump is $320.83 and R33 N1 oli pump is $536.43
