Just bought another 33, and am doing the 100K service,,

the pump I got from Bursons is the wrong type,,

The one on the car has the larger impeller, but, it also has one hole (the small 10mm bolt) at a different position,,

Which pump do I have?

Any help fromthe pro's please?

VL Commodore water pump, off the RB30, is a direct replacement for the one on the RB25DET. Cost me about AUD 80 from Repco when I had the 100k service done on my R33. The GT-R timing belt was also a direct fit...

Yer the pump they gave me is the RB30/ RB25 pump, but mine has the larger impeller and the 10mm bolt holt is 5-6mm further left than the replacement pump that they gave me,,

They tell me that this pump is not available and that I will need to get mine reconditioned,,

Has anybody else had this problem?

Does the GTR pump have this variation on the bolt holes?

hold on.....before you come to conclusions....................................

get more opinions rather than 1 person before you make a decision

its important for you...... to read through this post....

someone has actually compared it.....

some of the bolt holes dont actually line up

but the RB26dett actually works on all RB engines.

and a person has posted trying an RB25 and 26 pump on his RB30.....and one hole did not line up.......

becareful

these OPS would be the people to PM....

haha that was the thread i had up about a month ago - went to alot of trouble researching pumps hahah

i got 2 pumps here for sale, one of which im pretty certain will fit your car

$28 express posted

used but havent been used for very long as i too used the wrong pump, hence had to take out the one a mechanic replaced (he used a R33 one grrr) and put in a genuine r34 one

see my signature, can include the gates heavy duty timing belt too - both are only 35000ish kms old. no issues at all.

Does the impeller fit in the housing?

Ive fitted a number burso rb30 pumps in rb25 and whatever else motors and they fit fine...except that bolt hole (i know the one). i had my doubts at first whether it would leak but no you just do em up no probs. obviously a bit or aero sealant (otherwise known as that brown sticky stuff that never solidifies ((loctite 3a)) or similar stag or indian) never goes astray but it will be fine.

hahah.

Thanks guys,

I took the info printed out and the pics to Bursons, (They put it in their books lol), They got me in the correct pump (Japanese one too) retailed at $250.00, they gave it to me for $90.00 so cant complain,, but yer man, the info was a saviour,,

And as for the other pumps and belt,, I sold the car to my Brother and am looking for another one,, prefer a GTR this time, so I may be in touch,,,

:P

cheers

yeah as i thought, the workshop/mechanic you went to had no clue....

they obviously needed the Part no# to source it/ring around.

at least you got it sorted

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
