What is all is needed to run a Tomei Oil pump?

[gtrjon]

Do it. Get the Tomei. Don't need the justify. You didn't cheap out on any of your other parts (except buying a R32 over an R33 ah ah ah (face of a disappointed father) lol JK. So get the Tomei.

hahaha thanks buddy atleast someone understands :P sorry about the 32

Don't be sorry, he has bad tastes.

PS: Good luck with the build man. I would of settled with N1 but if you want the best there's nothing wrong with that, go for it!

Ok, for tomei pump. You need an oil pan baffled and restrictor. Tada! $2100 or so and you have a bullet proof pump but it's no dry sump, that pump won't fail but the bearings could still due to oiling.

As for getting the best, why stop at the oil pump? No point in having an ugly chick with nice rack right? Do it all the best if that's what you're after

Get an N1 and save $1400 for some baller wheels.
or get a nismo and save $800 for a baller exhaust.

I dunno.. Would be like a scranny dude with 1 huge arm ;p

That N1 that broke, wasn't it bouncing off the rev limit over 8k rpm?

Anyways, if $1800 isn't a huge dent compared to a functional nismo or greddy or Jun, do it

You got a build thread? I'd like to see this beast 600hp car, jealous already

Okay yea its a mild build but i will still be making pretty big power hopefully around 600 with a big single. so not mild power. yea i know lots of ppl run n1 and rips uses them on the 1000hp gtrs but n1s also fail. look at felix! he had rougly 30k+ conservitavely into his motor and its instantly gone thanks to a n1 pump. so i am sorry if i am going over kill on a oil pump when its only the heart of my motor. Yes a jun or nismo would be sufficent but if i am spending the money i want the best. i have never heard of a tomei pump failing ever. why not get the best? didnt know overkill on something so important like a oil pump was a bad thing.

i swear you are the cockiest person on this thread. Yes we all know your baller and you have amazing parts that doesnt mean you have to be cocky and arrogant. tomei is not the only part that is top of the line that i went with fyi. No I do not have a build thread yet as my progress is slow as i dont have funds coming in like you do. but as my build progresses more and i have more **** complied i will make a build thread just for you so you can hate all you want. also the tomei oil pump is 1500 not 1800 and felix's n1 that broke was during his break in period so i highly doubt he was bouncing off limiter. as far as your analgy of a scronny dude with a huge arm. um well i perfer to look at it more like a scronny dude with a huge **** investing where it matters and saving money where i can. Reasoning for going with tomei is your oil pump is the heart of your motor i dunno how many times i have to say it!!! yes i could probally get away with an n1 but i dont want to spend the 15k on my motor and have it fail because i cheaped out 1300 to get a cheaper oil pump. I could go jun or nismo for 1000 bucks but compare jun and tomei and the tomei pump is superior in many ways. Also i have heard of jun pumps busting but never once ever heard of a tomei pump failing. so yes it is a little extreme for my build but i believe its a important part of my motor and i am going to invest in the important parts so i dont regret it later. *end rant*

[derk]

yeah hes pretty much the most pompous person on this forum.

Tomei ftw! Amazing pump... I agree about the heart of the engine comment you keep making as well.

Ah sorry, I don't mean to, I'm french, I translate funny in my head. I'm really just a noob that gets in over his head, which is why I don't own a running GTR for the last 2 years lol. As for tomei, I totally agree about it being the heart which is what I did however I do regret not going dry sump as the cost wasn't far off (from what I did to support the oil pump) as tomei recommends at the least the head restrictor and sump baffle but strongly advice some kind of sump extension (I believe you are going with a greddy or something?). Anyways, wasn't hating, maybe just trying to be funny. Took it too far. Sorry again, I take it all back. But seriously though, the whole paranoid about an N1 pump is also the reason I went crazy on everything, thinking my oem fuel rail might crack, or my #6 might go lean or my fuel tank might starve my pump or my front diff will explode. Now I sit in my garage with **** everywhere for nothing more than a lump of crap on stands for the last 17 months or something.

I love you guys We should be like an internet family, not flamers. I sincerly do appologize for what I've said.

Back on topic? Tomei pump, restrictor, sump baffle, head oil drain. WIN!!

yeah hes pretty much the most pompous person on this forum.

I'll work on proof reading my useless ramble before posting. Sorry, I'm really not like that, I'm the quiet guy normally, my wife even wears the boots around here.

haha no hate dont worry. yea got the sump extension, pump, restrictor, and oil drain back covered we dont hate you nismostune. whats your name btw? im jon in case you didnt get my name lol. you contribute alot to this community and know ur ****

Good to hear you made some of the best choices for parts. I only say Nismo/jun and N1s cause they're still functional and proven within limits. As for the sump extension, do post pics, I haven't seen the greddy one. Thanks Jon.

[jdms13rhd]

looks like a good idea:

[gtrjon]

thats the exact kit i had in mind allen. ~$300 usd

[NismoS-tune]

thats the exact kit i had in mind allen. ~$300 usd

Really? That's a killer deal considering the Trust front and rear diff covers only are like $300 each! I'm sure Andrew could have that done for you or know who car weld it in!

[gtrjon]

yea its like 330 shipped to my door. im pretty sure i am going to have alecs machine shop do it when they are working on my motor

[Dragon Humper]

Tomei's don't fail?????

There are a lot of dudes in the dragracing world that have calved $20,000 engines and gone to dry sump specifically because the "unfailable, best pump in the world" split in two. Granted they are in the 1200 to 1400hp zone but still, everything fails at some point.

Just as a reference, I am almost 100% sure that my pump is stock or an N1 (may have Reimax gears, I don't know) and I am running 1.5bar at 8000rpm and 700ish HP. Been 2 full seasons now and I run her up to 8000 all the time, I'm not kind to her. No extended sump either (may have baffling, haven't had the motor apart yet).

If you are patient, you could piece together a dry/wet sump hybrid system with an external 4 stage pump for as little as $1500. Look at used stuff from NASCAR garages, they time it out long before it's all used up and is 1/10th the price from new.
