Hey All,

I am currently working with an engineering frim in SA looking into getting a MUCH stronger gear set for the N1 oil pumps. These will be just the gears for N1 pump, but made out of some really strong billit steal (or whatever will do the job).

I'm expecting them to cost somewhere around the $400 mark for the gear set alone, but i'll be visiting them again early this comming week to hopefully get a better idea about price and maybe a bit more detail on the materials and delivery time frame.

Depending on intrest i'm looking at a batch of 5 or 10 and will be completed by May the 22nd at the latest.

I'll be happy to ship interstate but will cost you an extra $5-10 (depending on how you want it shipped etc)

let me know if your interested, but i'll need at least 4 other keen people before this can get off the ground

thanks

Luke

Should be a lot of people interested in this if they've seen the price of jap brand pumps lately

Making it as an all inclusive kit to fit a in a stock pump case would be a good idea so buyers dont need to run around and find anymore parts

the pump has been delayed in getting to me, expecting it late this week now =(

but as soon as i get it i'll be down there for the engineers to take a look at it.

N1GTR: what sort of things would you be looking for in a kit?

thanks

I have been looking into this as well, i have had a whole oil pump on the CMM and im going to look at doing a whole pump, with external oil relif etc. The only think i could say with gets for a N1 is that if you look at a tomei pump, the gears are physically much larger diameter, this gives the gear more thickness so its harder to crack them in the "troughs" of the wave pattern.

  • 3 weeks later...

there wasen't a whole lot of interest, so i've put this on the back burner for a little while. i'll see if i can get some free time in the next week or so to head on out to the engineers (takes over an hour to travel there from my place), i'm also intending on taking my stock pump out there for them to have a look at as well - was a shame that the pump didn't arrive while i was on holidays

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
