We all know that the oiling system is one of the weakest points to the VG30s survival. Inadequate oil supply coupled with oil recovery issues leaves the avenue for oil starvation and consumption with a very high rate of failure over time. To this one must focus their efforts to support the oil system to the best of their ability. I introduce to you EP Racing Ported Oil pumps. With an average of 15-17% increase of flow (dependent on oil viscosity) these oil pumps have all the restrictions removed for effortless flow and faster recovery for the engines oiling system. All passages have been hand ported to ensure tolerances are kept within standards. The ?ins? & ?outs? of the oil pumps have been blended and radiused for faster flow rate and allows the oil to turn easier under pressure. All of the oil pumps have been rebuilt from original cores. They have been media blasted to remove any and all contaminants to the outside casings. The internal side of things are thoroughly cleaned to remove all residue and oil left behind. The entire assembly is ran through my 3 cycle cleaning process to ensure all parts are accurately cleaned before assembly. All clearances have been checked per factory specifications. Assembly is put together using the highest grade assembly lubricant on the market. The rear cover plate is installed and fastened using OE hardware with Loctite sealant to ensure sealing and that the hardware maintains its function. EP Racing Ported Oil Pumps come with a 90 day warranty. Are guaranteed to maintain your oil pressure more eefficiently and effectively. Improves recovery time/rate & maintains a better approach to help aid the stock oiling system. These are a direct bolt on application. Great for those doing an engine rebuild. Each pump is stamped with a serial number for verification of completion. How to order: I take orders via phone/email. Acceptable payments are money order or Paypal. This sale does require you to send in a core of the ?like? kind, meaning if you buy a TT oil pump you must send in a TT core oil pump. These cores MUST be in working condition and have not had any failure prior to being removed from the engine. You do not have to clean the unit before shipping. If one does not send in a core a $35 core fee does apply. If you buy one of my ported oil pumps without sending in the core first, or with your payment you will be charged the core fee and when/if you send in your core the fee will be refunded to you via paypal services. Oil pumps run $125 + shipping (core charge applies). Each oil pump includes the oil pump seal and gaskets for installation. Currently I have two (Twinturbo Oil Pumps) in stock & on the shelf.
Love your work mate!!:thumbup: Will deffinately be giving you a call before my next rebuild. Keep up the good work. Regards.. Dave
I just shipped a pump to Denmark and it was around $30 to ship him the pump. I dont think it would be more than that...if so not much. I have right now 4 pumps on the shelf...I'll be porting these in a few days and have them ready for purchase.
What is wrong with a rebuilt oil pump if it came off the engine in working condition with no faults? The oil pumps I reproduce are spec'd out to OEM clearances and assembled with better lubricants than factory uses. Its cheaper than a brand new pump and you get performance out of them. If you so choose to purchase a brand new pump I can port those for $120 if you wish. But either a new or used pump the performance is going to be the same. You never have to worry about an oil pump unless there was debris that went through the pump, once I tear the pumps down and inspect everything if I see the slightest clue of issue the entire pump is thrown away. I won't risk that to a customer.
the oil pumps don't go bad unless you run a whole bunch of bearing material through them or you have 200k+ miles on them with poor oil changing practices. the pumps are 100% mechanical with no bearings, bushings, or seals (other than the front oil crank seal) to go bad. the gears can wear at the housing faces putting them out of spec and potentially lowering oil pressure, but by the time this happens, you already have bigger problems that lead to the pump wear. and you'll notice that nowhere in the maintenance schedule does it ever say to replace the oil pump after so many miles (cuz they are by design to outlast the motor). so for those of you who may have concerns about rebuilt oil pumps, have no fears, we will all long over run the internals of our motors way before the pump decides to go bad.
I have never opened a VG oil pump but the similar design FJ20 ones always seem to wear on the aluminium face against which the steel parts rotate. Hence the query.
I totally understand the concern however that is why I ensure all my pumps by checking all clearances prior to putting them on the shelf. All of these are spec'd and work perfectly fine. You'd be amazed that my ported oil pumps are cleaner internally and externally than what you will find from Nissan Direct. I recently discovered that OEM Nissan pumps have contaminants in them from the factory. So you are never safe...even with a brand new OEM product.
Well guys I have 4 new ported pumps in stock and on the shelf. These are ready for shipment. email me if you guys are interested.
