      April 1992? ****! That means I've got the shitty oil pump drive?

        When did they start making the "updated" crank for the r32? My brother has a late model 92, so is that when then started or just the r33 and up?


        The shitty part is that I've seen 3 oil pumps now that 2 had the oil pump gears cracked and the 3rd was ready to start cracking. I feel bad for the guys you spend $3000 or more for an engine from those jdm engine places, all those engines are ready to explode.
        The only way the pump gears crack are from over revving or boucing the needle of the rev limiter. If you don't drive like that than it's probably ok but with these cars who knows what the guy or guys before you drove it like.

          Why the sudden interest in the birth date? And seems pre-1992 is in the clear, so we should both be happy.

          BTW, if you need anything on FAST, text me.

            Pretty sure the oil pump was fixed feb 1993. Idk if that was cars assembled after then or cars made available then.

              Skylife says 89 to early 1991, wiki says pre 1992, GTR usa says early R32, etc...

                I don't think this is any easy way to tell wether you have the updated version or not unless you remove the oil pump. Change the front crank seal and I think you can see in and tell if you have longer pump drive?

                  I was lead to believe it was either June or August and later 1992 cars that had the revised crank.

                        Ross external oilpump kit -



                        Solves oilpump problem without rebuilding engine.

                        Same type of external pump setup they run on 900awhp Godzilla Motorsport drag GTR (with enlarged sump) at 2:10+ -
