Im looking at getting a new water pump for my 26/30 and just looking at my options.

A N1 pump is one option or I have been thinking about a electric pump setup like this

Is anyone running a electric water pump as im leaning more that way as it can keep cooling after the engine is off

yes ive been running one for around 6 months, the nylon 115 with the controller. only problem i have had is one hot summer day it blew the main fuse that feeds it, i guess the engine bay temp and the hot day combined with the long run of the wire to the battery did it, the wire is sorta smallish so i upgraded it and haven't had a problem since. with the existing pump i just pressed the shaft out and welded up the whole. very happy with it thus far.

upgraded alloy radiator, handles hard driving fine. i just have a davies craig thermo fan going, running on a mechanical temp switch. The new davies craig controllers can control both the pump and fan which ive been thinking of upgrading too. Ill get some pics for you.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
