Hope this is in the right place, but let me first tell you about me, I actually live in the US but most of you guys on here seem pretty smart and I have a few questions. First though my car is 1990 240sx (s13), has 215,xxx on it and runs real strong few moths ago converted to 5 speed and now i want more power. I want to run an rb25 mostly because its cheaper than the rb26 and will eventually get an rb30 bottom end. swap parts are simple engine mount/driveshaft kit, intercooler, freddy intake, and want to get external oil pump. Thats where you guys come in, I want to run a similar setup to this guy, sorry its upside down

now it looks so simple, i know that the pump is moroso 22596, and is just drilling and tapping the oil pump and taking out the internals? I work at a machine shop and can get mounts made easily and know how about the belting crap because i have dealt with it in school, i know the oil pressure will be a little different and later he says he blew it up cause of too much oil in the head, so i figured an rear head drain and it should be good, have about 2k for this, would like to know what you guys think.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
