Browsing through the Spool Website I found a few High volume sumps for RB25 and RB30, does anyone have more info on them, how big they actually are and if there's any internal baffling? the site doesnt give too much away and only has two photos at the moment. Ive emailed them but still awaiting a reply. http://www.spoolimports.com/content/RB30an...VolumeSumps.asp

Received a reply:

The sumps use the std pickup – they are no lower than the OEM sump so there are no clearance problems. They are just a bigger capacity sump with modified and enlarged sides. They fit all R32 GTS RB20, R33 GTST RB25 and VL RB30 etc.

I wonder if they're worth it for the $420?

Not sure I am a fan of the weld quality around the extension where it meets the sump.

For not a lot more you could get the Trust sump extension which includes a modified pickup, or spend $900 or so and get one of the ASR/High Energy straight replacement sumps.

I have one of these sumps.

It is exactly as pictured. Has trapdoors, baffling etc. The quality is amazing.

Very good for the money...

Only thing is when ordering mine, I was the only one to recieve this style sump. About half a dozen other people here just recieved the standard sump with a box welded on. I'm not sure why this happened, but I love it anyways.

Who is rob and what/where is sabbadin? Sounds like a raghead temple!

I just looked at the link and it shows photos of the doors and whatnot inside. Looks the goods! That sump with an accusump and you will have a bullet proof oiling system, or as close as it gets in a wetsump system.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
