probably a factor....but maybe not the only one in rb blocks.

since they are cast, have a full girdle and the crank is factory forged and nitrided...they are pretty strong compared to many motors despite being a long 6 cylinder. this is supported by the fact they almost never spin main bearings.....

this is what breaks the oil pump.

a good read on whats happening :crankshaft harmonics

That's what said a while ago... It's going on without a doubt.

They are a I4. Not a longer I6.

Taking a wild stab here but a I4 is not going to have the crank movement a I6 has, especially due to weight and so on.

Nor are the forces/pressures there especially if hitting limiters and so on with all that extra spinning around.

And it was met with...

Torsional vibration and harmonics are generaly worse in an I4 due to firing order and cyl sequence, also one of the reasons most I4's have ballance shafts to try help NVH

Large crank movement = toasted bearings, SR20's run main bearings pretty easy if not 100% dead on ballance when running over 400wkw yet dont break oil pumps running a near identical drive setup & dimensions to the RB... Rb on the other hand comes out with bearings looking like brand new yet oil pump is scrap metal, The RB pump is driven not even 3-4mm from No:1 main bearing, pump gets damaged from movement but bearing isnt touched?

There is no way to have rotational vibration / whip without it running out of center.

Yes Rezlo an inline 6 is dynamically balanced, so no issue there.

:D

Time to revisit?

That correlates with the "a good harmonic balancer will save your oil pump" theory i've heard stated on here.

every time theres an oil pump thread i cut and paste this page from ati.. sums it all up. stock balancers wont be suficiant to keep a "stock" oil pump alive, not evan a trust or jun either.

on another note, our race supra (2jz) has a alloy crank pully with zero dampening, looks like a water pump pully.. its not blown the oil pump either. and it hits the limmiter pretty hard. just goes to show how superier the toyota oil pump drive system is..

ive tried to make them put a good balancer on, but with no sucess lol.

Group buy was removed @ the request of the creator.

"Well considering theres a few guys not real confident and wanting to see some testing results, this group buy can be closed for the mean time."

Fair enough too IMO. A G/B that should have started once there was some actual testing for sanity's sake at least. ;)

Whats happeneing with the gears? can't seem to find the group buy- probably blind i'll have another look.

Yes they are still being made. I closed the GB thread to follow the forum rules ;). I'll put up another one when i have some 'testing results'

Anyone have any pics of the inside of the NITTO Pumps ? - I would really like to see what makes it special, other than what is said about it.

I am a little interested now and like many others, I was simply scared into facing the fact that I would have to eventually buy a Tomei Pump for my ongoing build, but if there is an alternative, I am open to reveiwing it.

Thanks,

Allan

i can send you a photo of the nitto pump that ate cast iron if you like...your e-mail address?

Thanks.

Although THIS does interest me, I am still waiting patiently for the AUS 'Tomei' replacement :)

So to whoever is doing it.....Get on that CNC and make some magic.....lol

JPC in Melbourne already produce N1 style replacement OEM pump gears if that is what interests you. http://www.jpc.com.au/ The Nitto pump gears are made from superior material from those though...i would rather not risk it with any material other than Nitto or an external pump.

I was on Nissansilvia forums earlier and came across the powertune gears (again)

http://hardtuned.net/forums/index.php?app=...ttach_id=177301

made out of P20

hows it compare to JPCs 4340 gears? pretty cheap at $350

I am still at a bit of a loss when it comes to these 'Nitto' pumps.....

Where are they made ?

Who makes them ?

Who is Nitto ?

Info is in short supply. Website ? Manufacturer Info ?

Unfortunately these are not a great deal compared to Tomei anywhere else other than Aus/NZ......

    • Order for the 2025 model R35 GT-R were accepted from 3rd March and 26th August the last order rolled off the production line at the Tochigi plant. Concerning the R35 GT-R replacement, current Nissan CEO Ivan Espinosa said "Nothing has been decided about the GT-R at this time, but we are well aware that everyone is waiting. The GT-R will evolve and reappear in the future. Please be patient until that day comes." Nissan has a lot of issues with management and finances so take Espinosa's words with a big grain of salt. From what discussions I've had and read about here in Japan, not a lot of people are confident about Nissan's future, let alone the next GT-R. 
    • Thanks. We getting some parts along too so he will be solving the speed issue like next week so i will let you know what he came up with.   
    • 21 is explicitly the coils detected as the issue. Is it guaranteed the actual issue? No. Just the ECU thinks it is. When you say rattling, describe it better, get an audio clip as best you can if possible.
    • Yea got me coppers. Bad news is I just put them in and the car still has the light and shakes. I also noticed I hear like rattling coming from the exhaust piping right under me. Does 21 also have a possibility of being O2 sensors?   So, coil packs are good, the harness is good, the MAF is working, and obviously the spark plugs just replaced and working.
    • Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
