Hey all, done a lot of research about which oil pump to use, then found this:

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/NISSAN-RB-SERIES-HI...=item20b3e94e13

Anyone seen/heard of/used one of these??? If so, good or complete sh!t???

Looks very similar to a G-reddy/nismo style pump.

Obviously would love to get a Tomei, but cannot afford one.

Any info on these good or bad would be very helpful.

Thanks, Dave.

i was about to ask a similar question as i just found this one. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...e=STRK:MEWAX:IT

possibly a cheap batch from overseas or something local that would be worthwhile? otherwise i'm considering some billet gears for $370

Hmm, Nismo, Jun, Nitto etc all use the shark-fin outer. This pump looks very similar to Nitto and G-reddy pumps, as they have a similar 8-bolt backing plate flange.

Nitto Pump:

Key I guess is the width of the gears (std 11mm) and material.

Is there noone that has used these pumps before?

log in - yea I saw that one too, looks like the same pump - they look ok, but I guess that means f*ck all. Where can you get billet gears for $370?

just had a look and the company is no longer around but JPC sells them for $350

^^ lol why would anyone touch it with their dick?

so you could f*ck it before it has the chance to f*ck your engine.

why would anyone ever take a risk with such a critical engine component. It will end up bad money chasing bad money.

wow ebay can sell some pritty crapy stuff, but if its cheap enough than why not have a go..... when your talking about somthing like a deck chair or a cheap socket set..... but somthing like a Oil pump for a freshly built motor..... Dude just buy a nitto.......

If in fact it is a proper billet oil pump the same as a JUN/Tomei/Nitto then awesome.

Because it would be about Fu(king time good pumps were sold for a realistic price.

Whats interesting is the cost of a 2JZGTE genuine pump and their actual spec. Plus their reliability is second to none. How much? $300 delivered from USA.

Yea, it's quite funny, all of you have just replied exactly what I have gone over in my head - why take a risk like that with an untested product? But then, if it is modeled off a Nitto pump, and has the same quality gears, at a price like that, then how can you go wrong?

Tough decision, I have asked all who are selling them on e-bay to elaborate on the gear size/material so will see what they have to say.

I have pretty much made up my mind on the billet gears for my N1 pump though - roughly the same price for known quality results.

But as N1GTR said, there is no reason we should be able to get a quality pump at a reasonable price.

if you think these big companies make the stuff in house then your off with the fairies, there is quite a possibility it is straight out the back door of the same factory the others are from. I buy cranks from a company that supplies a few majors @ 1/4 the price.. there are other options you just need to validate its source.

if some-one buys it in vic im happy to compare the gearset to a genuine GREDDY item, it would be worth getting the gearset tested.

^^ Agreed..and after comparing all pictures of the genuine 'nitto ' casting and these ones...front and back looks identical everywhere and the only difference i

can see is the rear plate is dull compared to the genuine nitto & phillips head screws used instead of hex.

In fact im going to buy one and get the gears tested for material & hardness.

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
