Dry Sumps And You.......

[Risking]

This thread needs some photos for those who dont get to see many dry sump setups or have never seen one.

Sorry the photos are not the greatest quality but they do show the dry sump.

Its a tight layout with a 5 stage system. These are of an RB26 in a GTR

And the boot with tank and some of the breathing system.

Dry sump, up graded brakes, ohlins suspension, aftermarket handling parts, looks like it will be a nice ride.

[Risking]

It is a pretty well sorted car, the owner has put alot into it.

The mentality has been, right way or no way from the beginning.

A few things still to change and tidy up, if I was to build another GTR for myself I'd use alot of the same componentry.

[BOZ22N]

Nice work mate all the best with the business

Brad - have you done any dry sump JZ's?

[Risking]

Thanks Ryan.

I was just looking at some photos of a bracket and pan I did for a 2J not long ago.

Was a guy on performance forums who had the engine in a celica. I didn't do the instal or plumbing though.

cool, ill have a hunt around for some pics.

unrelated to the dry sump topic but still oil related, I'll be giving you a bell re: a extended sump for my Soarer...just gotta check I can get the pan off with the motor in the car and how much room I have

[Risking]

There should be some on performance forums.

If you can't find any let me know and I'll send you some that I took before it went into a car.

Set up on the GTR looks great Brad.

Sorry to keep annoying you man but if you can give me a call back that would be sweet cheers.

[turboedsloth]

Wow, those pics are awesmoe. Haven't had the pleasure of seeing a full blown dry sump setup in the flesh yet

Brad I assume this isn't yours (from the US I think) But similar idea?

Interesting that the pressure stage is the last rotor on the pump, I would've thought you would use the 1st rotor on the pump

[zebra]

A few more I found

I wish there were better photos of what they did with the filter mount, as the external pump sits right where the factory oil filter does.

[Risking]

The pressure stage is usually at the rear of the pump, it's a separate section that's sealed from the scavenger stages.

It's normally at the rear so the rear bearing plate can incorporate a pressure relief valve.

The new Peterson range also have a bypass valve that returns the excess pressure into the scavenger stage instead or returning it to the inlet of the pressure stage.

There are for and against for both types but the new petersons seem to work okay.

Mike I'll send you a different number you can get me on now.

[bigmikespec]

Mike I'll send you a different number you can get me on now.

Cheers buddy

Can I get the new number too Brad?

I've been trying to contact you about the suspension parts for the R32.

Alright, got my brand new pump!

Dailey Engineering

nice!

[Risking]

Very nice choice.

In the next few weeks I'm hoping to test out one of my "behind closed doors projects"

An integral pump/pan with internal scavenging galleries using a similar Dailey pump that mike is using.

Working on the drive system still which will be via a multi row chain internally from the unused factor pump drive section of the crank.

[bigmikespec]

Ok, anyone have some genuine knowledge in oil tank sizing for a dry sump application? Need to choose a tank!

Just to keep this thread ticking along...
