HKS have released a new oil pump for the RB26 engines. And its so far the highest flowin crank driven oil pump made for the GT-R. At 6000rpm it flows 65ltr/min which HKS claims is a 38% improvement over N1 oilpump.

We compaired it too Tomei`s oil pump (perhaps the best oil pump on the market) and HKS`s newest effort passes that by 9ltrs/min at 6000rpm (Tomei flowing 56ltr/min)
For refference nissan N1 oil pump flows 47ltr/min @ 6000rpm.

One thing we were worried about tho, is the normal GTR oil pan is only 4ltrs of oil, where the tomei pump has proved very efficient on many high power GTRs, the HKS is sucking alot more oil out of the oil pan, question is will the oil return to the sump to match the speed thats its being withdrawn....Sugino san said people are advised to use a larger oil pan (similar to Endless-R 8ltr capacity) and also look at the head return to help with the flow.

I took some more photos of the car today, between Sugino san and Houda kun dyno testing a nice sounding "turbo`d" Altezza...

More details of this car can be found on www.draganddrift.com and you can email me at rick@endless-r.co.jp for more information.

T100-R gets watercooled housing,

Just an update, the new line-up just get better......the already powerful 1200hp+ T100-R now has the additional option of a watercooled housing.
This helps with reducing heat in the bearing housing, which also helps keep the main shaft cooler and reduces the heat thats beging transfered from the turbin to the compressor wheel.

F3000 Race car is now for sale,

Some days, you wake up and think you have it all worked out, what you have to do etc etc then somedays out of the blue, lady luck comes calling, and thats what happened today.......normal days work, totally trashed buy the news that a company wants us to sell their race car.....and not any racecar, an actual 2003 built F3000 Lola 660kg/500hp Mugen powered V8 track monster.

To give you some idea, way back in 1995, one was racing at Tsukuba with a lesser spec, it ran 48.072!

GT300 Unisia Jecs arrives!!!

A few have you have asked what is happening to the car, well it was purchased by the newly opened Endless-R Norway shop, and its going to be their demo car.....

Only addition to the car will be a new engine and turbo charger system, the rest will remain the same apart from the stickers. (need to be removed by order of Nismo) for the sale to be compleated.

So say bye bye to the most successful GT300 silvia in GT300 / JTCC history, as it is one of Nismo`s few cars that will be making an new life in Norway very soon........p.s sorry to the other competitors in Norway currently running in that class, still a silver trophy is better than nothing....right? ;)

Racing yesterday....

Well we was out yesterday for the Amkread battle at central circuit as it was a national holiday in Japan. Actually I am not very keen on Amkread stuff, as the mix the day with Drag + Drift in the morning, then at 1pm the circuit guys take over and drag is finished.

Just to update and say well done to Gotou san for being the fastest on the day with a 9.3sec run, but he actually came second to the blue R33 GTR from Garage Active (first accross the line) as Gotou san`s reaction time was hmmmmm to say the least.

But to date this yearm he has run at the first 3 events 9.1, 9.3, 9.3 so he is close to his dream of 8sec run (to beat Sugino san) If it will happen for him, I think Sendai will be the place, as thats where he gets a little excited (west Japan vs East Japan) in East Japan and also he won last years compertition!

Will keep all posted
