hey guys, im currently under the build of a rb25 for my s13 silvia. lookin at fully forged bottom end with cams n porting up the top and plenty of the usual stuff... already got most the gear. the thing im not sure about is what to do about the oil pump drive, either im thinking just wack on a crank collar and a oil pump to suite. believe a late 32 gtr onwards pump will fit?? also many aftermarket options. OR... is it just as easy to put a 32gtr onwards crankshaft (long crank) on with rb26 oil pump and aftermarket rb26 pistons and rods to suite? and this would fix the oil pump drive issue? any info on puttin the rb26 crank in a rb25 would be helpfull. thanks guys, adam.

anyone else got any ideas??? im about to order pistons from usa so i need to make sure that all i need is cp pistons to suite a rb26, rb25/26 eagle rods and then source a long crank here. are all the crank main journals the same? thanks again.

honestly? i have already purchased the pistons and rods... going to look at a crank shaft tomorrow night. what about oil pump? ive heard the only diff between N1 and stock is higher oil pressurer which is acheivable through installing a shim in the standard pump pressure relief valve anyways. is this true or is there more to it? thanks.

I would use a gtr crank and pistons. Dont bother with rods, dirtgarage is(was) selling a set of cleaned up stockers that are stronger than most aftermarket ones. He made over 400awkw with a set of stockers.

Ive also heard that the r33 gtr pump and the n1 are identical apart from the relief valve, however they cost about the same. What pistons did you end up getting, rb25 or 26, that will depict what crank you have to run.

Which "stock" oil pump are you comparing the N1 to?

An early R32GTR "stock" oil pump? The N1 pump has the wide drive flange, the early R32GTR oil pump doesn't, they have the narrow drive flange. The N1 oil pump also has a different rotor configuration and the higher oil pressure relief valve.

A late R32GTR "stock" oil pump? They both have the wide drive flange,but the N1 oil pump also has a different rotor configuration and the higher pressure relief valve

An R33GTR "stock" oil pump? They both have the wide drive flange, but the N1 oil pump also has a different rotor configuration and the higher pressure relief valve

An R33GTR V SPec "stock" oil pump? They both have the wide drive flange and the same rotor configuration, but the N1 oil pump has the higher pressure relief valve

An R34GTR "stock" oil pump? They both have the wide drive flange, the same rotor configuration and the higher pressure relief valve

Simple isn't it?

But wait there is more. Nissan has superceded some part numbers, so even if you order an early R32GTR pump you will most likely get a late model one anyway.

i got cp rb26 pistons, hopefully get long crank tomorrow night

i was refering to a late model, since thats the crank i will be using. the main reason i decided to go to a rb26 crank in the 1st place was to fix the oil pump drive issue. thanks for the info sk, so pretty much im better off just goin N1 by the sounds of it. is the cheapest option getting it through nissan for trade price or does someone know somewhere else that sells them cheaper. i see spool on ebay has them for $390... cheers

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
