So i'm about to buy the built engine form my friend.. the head is ported, forged bottom, made 650whp on a mustang dyno with a PTE6466 ( I believe... or is it 6266? wtv lol!)

Problem is I was going to build mine and the build included a TOMEI pump and RIPS sump ( already bought). So, I spoke with my mechanic and he doesn't like the idea of doing that swap.

Reason being '' I know this engine run perfect and has no problem AS IS, i would hate to swap the nismo pump/greddy extension sump, install the tomei pump and rips sump and found out you have an oil problem or timing issues since we need to undo all that too. I would prefer to do a drop-in affair. ''

Your though ? Car will be ''spirited driving'' and see the drag strip on occasion. ( I wish to do some lapping/time attack, but i think it will never happens honestly..)

Swap the pump!

Seen multiple failures with NISMO pumps (N1). If he cannot match the timing during the swap then get someone who knows what they are doing to do it.

If its out now and you have the pump its a no brainer because when you run a bearing you will be so annoyed.

nismo pump and N1 are different items. The nismo pump has stronger gear than n1. N1 pump is 200 bucks. Nismo pump is 700. Its fine how it is, no need to really change in my opinion. I don't think he would have to overfill the sump since he has the sump extension already on there. That is the point of the extension, more oil.

N1 pump = 15010-24U01

Nismo pump = 15010-RR580

Yep just keep going with what you have I reckon. This build feels like it's been about 10 years in the making, no point changing route now when I'm sure you've bought most of what you need?

What are the issues with N1 pumps? do they tend to smash the gears like the factory pumps? I'm about to use one on a new engine and I'm thinking it'd be a good idea to use some billet gears for it

I don't know what the issues are. There are stories that there were a bunch of knock offs at one time. My Rb30 has an N1 pump - no issues after about 30,000km including track but my rev limit is 7000 and I don't do do-nuts or any limiter bashing. A local engine builder who does a lot of race engines won't use them so I guess he has had a few failures but I don't know the details.

Guys, I'm talking about the true Nismo pump ( if it was a N1, i would've call it a N1 pump) its the Nismo selling close to 1000$. I just thought the 3piece of the tomei was a more solid design and flow a bit more oil so i went ahead and dropped the coin on it.

Rips vs the greddy= about the same amount of oil extra cc, but the rips sit higher so less chance of rubbing since I drive in the city a lot.

But then, why change a winning formula right ? lol

The gears are sintered and they are more prone to breaking. have a search

And the thickness of the ring gear in an N1 pump is less due to the extra tooth compared to a standard pump IIRC.

.....a genuine Nissan N1 pump ruined my first motor when the gears broke, I replaced it with a Nismo pump and had no issues with it, now have a Nitto pump on my RB30, and so far so good :)

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
