I have run into a problem that I haven't struck before, that maybe someone else has. It's an R33GTST S1.5 and it has a different bolt pattern (1 bolt only) to the previous water pumps I have used. I have tried 5 different water pumps (RB25, RB26, RB30 and aftermarket) and none of them fit. So I am going to order a genuine water pump from Nissan, but it is always easier if you have the part number. So has anybody struck this problem before?

Cheers

Gary

i can PM you my 1.5 engine / vin details so you can call nissan and get the part number but they are at home... if you need them let me know and when i get home il send them to you.

I have the vin number and engine number, no problems there. I was hoping that someone may have struck this problem before and has experience in ordering the right part number.

i had this problem before.

I used the s1.5 rb25 oil pump on my 3 litre block and there is one bolt that does not line up.

It leaked so i had to buy a rb30 one for it. i know this don't help..

So these rb25's were different to the rest?

Looks like it.

I have tried the usual RB26 pump that we use on R26's and it doesn't fit.

I have tried the hybrid RB26/RB30 pump that we use on RB30's and it doesn't fit

Obviously an N1 pump didn't fit either, not that I would have used one anyway

I have also tried a S1 RB25 pump and it doesn't fit

I have even tried an RB20 pump and it doesn't fit

The only other pump I haven't tried is a S2 RB25 and I don't have one of those.

i would try the series 2 pump.

series 1.5 means series 1 body and series 2 motor..

i wasn't aware there different but i guess they are . ( you learn something everyday)

hope it works for you.

seems as though you have been stuffing around abit with this

I think he's after the water pump dude.

maybe someone can at least take a photo of their series 2 water pump for Gary so he can see if it's the same.

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
