post-22701-0-30697500-1330416662_thumb.jpg ( One i took today at work ) Hope nothing major or wrong with yours Paul ?

Oil pump destroyed itself and broke into about 12 pieces. Exhaust cam welded itself to a few cam caps, all EX valves bent. Intake cam is as good as useless. SOMEHOW the bottom end survived. A quick polish of the crank and it's good to go. Some of the big end bearings looked like they just came out of the box. Stupid Oil pump's. Good for nothing!

Bugger , that sucks ! just when it was getting some great results and moving forward ! which oil pump did you have on it ? I worry about mine as well but mine is "only" making 350rwkw , have not done a track day with this one yet , fingers crossed . Glad the bottom end is good though that is a small relief :thumbsup:

It was so strong. It was running an N1 pump. I was always worried about that stupid thing. It only had to last maybe another 3-4 months and it was going to be ripped out and replaced with a Tomei.

2.8 is getting sold. It's high comp 3.0 time :D

    • Absolutely could be. I collected data logs from when the O2 sensor was still out and also after I had replaced it so will try to compare them. Pretty confident that the affect is lowered with the new sensor, will check logs at the same RPMs/conditions. 
    • Hey guys Long time lurker, I daily a nm35 stagea 250t rs four and I've had it for almost 2 years (very reliable 👌). Issues or just looking for information ill always find myself here having a read, so thought id join.  3inch stainless intake, pod filter, AM performance turbo dump pipe, 3inch hotdog, 3 and half inch stainless to 3 and half inch AM performance blast pipes. Bc racing coilovers. 18inch rims Hdi intercooler and trans cooler soon.  Here's my car
    • thanks for the advice on the box... i was thinking the 6 speed was better for cruising on the highway but on closer inspection and comparison the Rb 5 speed box was not too different...  So the choice is going to be the RB25 box... if I can save up and find one at the right price  
    • Thanks Matt, yes that's what i am aiming for. Just going to apply the right voltage and grounds to the dash connector. Hence my search for these pins... any chance you know if these pins are in the same spot as the ones on the S15 Dash connector? as mentioned above on page 8?
    • Yes, unfortunately that's the one. Signal was noisy to begin with; after driving once and looking back at the logs I saw pressure constantly swinging between 0-200psi, or staying at 0 randomly for a few seconds. There's a lot of good sensors that share the same look and feel, so don't presume they're all bad. I bought mine for 20$ off Amazon and I should have read the reviews prior, as it's clear they're junk.  I purchased a lowdollerr motorsports sensor.
