I have Tomei Sump baffle and a mines cam baffle going in, no sump extension tho, also an oil restrictor going in.

Might be alright for a streeter then, just overfill the sump by a 1L.

Sump baffle and Mines baffles isn't enough.

You NEED a big sump with a Nitto pump. End of story.

exactly, when you have a pump that can pump 65ltrs of oil per minute at 7000rpm, thats more then a ltr per second, how long do you think it would take to empty the stock sump

Hey guys, im looking at getting an N1 pump after what you have all said as i dont have the cash to get the sump and the big pump, what i was looking at doing was replacing the gears in the stock or the N1 pump with billet gears or Reimax gears, i have done some reading and the week point looks like its the gears being crushed under the pressure. Keep in mind my car is running stock boost, stock turbos, and its not going to be a track killer. In your experence would this make a better option or is there another pump that i can go for thats going to be stronger and not require the sump?

Or would i be better off going with the stock pump and doing gears over the N1 hmmmm, trying to find flow rates for the N1 so i can compair to the nitto pump as i have read on here that they are close to the same flow rate and that defeats ther purpose of not getting the nitto pump.... wish i had the extra coin to do the sump to, sigh

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
