Hey guys,

I just got my car back from a 3 year build. Its a 26/30. It has a jun pump.

All is going well with it but the tuner says the oil pressure is high at around 130-140 psi but then drops to 120ish over 6500rpm. He was concerned about this? Do jun pumps usually run this high? and is the dropping oil pressure a concern or is it still plenty of oil pressure to keep everything happy?

You'll have problems with that much oil pressure.

110 is probably the maximum you would want to see. 90-100 is more normal.

What bearing clearances were used and was the pressure relief valve checked before the pump went on?

Dont know the bearing clearances right now. I wouldnt think the pressure relief valve was checked. The pump was just put on. How should the relief valve be checked?

What sort of problems will I have with that much oil pressure? Im running the engine in at the moment and have to put 1000km on it so will it be ok before I have to take it back?

Thanks mate

dont the 30 pumps run the small oil pump drive though? im talking on the oil pump not the crank.

thats correct...the pump is a different gear design and is not prone to the Jap pump problems. Pull one apart and you will see what i mean.

crack off pressure is the point at which the relief valve opens.

thats right they are like the tomei pumps, they run a 'spline' drive gear setup

i wouldnt trust one on a big dollar motor though

But your not Maatouk's, Birrong Automotive, JW Auto etc running 8's with them

Dan what problems will around 135psi at low RPM produce?

Thats probably why you only run 9's. If you ran the 30 pump like all those other fancy stables you might crack 8's. :cool:

lol...im struggling to even run a 9 now, we will see what happens when the car arrives up here to race. A few little tricks we have planned for it.

Also you can add JPC and most of the Melbourne VL boys to that list.

Im currently running a JUN pump now but will go to a Peterson external pump when it breaks.

My forklift bottom end will run a VL series II or VL turbo pump (they are the same) reco'd and modified by JW Auto.

A little birdie told me the car is only 2 minutes from my pad as I type.

Might go round and key it tomorrow. :blink::cool:

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.

      Not yet quite as bad as what we've seen a Jim Berry clutch do in an R32 GTR though when it decided to cut a chassis rail in half... Still very very gnarly and a great reason to avoid.
