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.

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.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      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.
