Im still waiting for the following to arrive, Tomei stud caps, Tomei 1.5mm oil restrictor, ATI 1000hp balancer and a few other bits and pieces that i have forgotten. After countless delays and f**k ups im pleased that my build has picked up speed it seems like my goal of having the car back on the road at the end of the year is still in achievable.

Nice one Sedat. It is pleasing to hear that things are moving. There is nothing more frustrating than waiting for things to be done.

btw - what is the flow rate of that Nitto Oil Pump? Must a be a fair bit if it comes with a head oil drain.

Cheers Anth, the only flow rate figures i could find was 64.8 @ 7k rpm. I'll need to ask my engine builder to get 100% correct answer. The head oil drain was actually an add-on that i got. My engine builder suggested that i should have a oil return line from the back of the head going to the sump so i dont have any oiling issues when im revving the engine over 9k rpm.

Hey Sedat you probably are already aware of this not sure if it's stated in the info that comes with the pump but the Nitto pumps runs dual springs and you need to remove one otherwise your oil pressure will be around 140 psi. PM a member on her named Shazz as he just had to remove his engine to fix that problem.

    • To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...
    • Good old Orange Park hey... 😛   f**k I miss that race track
    • lo, it was a death trap. Good times. Got any Fatz Drift Day DVDs still available?
    • Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.
    • Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
