Hi guys, im quite sure my oil pressure was buggered due to the oil pump now, after going in a mates car and comparing. are there any uprated oil pumps out there, and if so, how much am i looking at?

AFAIK there are none and have been told they are not needed as a standard pump in a good condition can keep the oil pressure as required. I have heard that a tuner does know how to mod them to increase the pressure, if I find out I will let u know. Also depending on desired use would be worth doing the sump, ie baffles etc.

we have the largest oil pump of the sr20 family....the 200BHP 1.6L SR16VE N1 uses our pump. That being said good pumps can go bad.

And that was the exact way of moding it Justin told me :lol:GINGA said:Increasing the oil pump pressure is a simple matter of just fitting a stronger spring to the regulator valve or even cheaper just fitting a washer behind the spring to increase the pressure
