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.

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.

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

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.

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.

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
