    I live my life a quarter pounder at a time. And for those 500 calories or more, I'm free. I need FRIES! Two of them. The big ones. Oh, and I need them tonight. You're lucky the double shot of BBQ sauce didn't blow the seam on your nugget box. There she is, 2 pounds of pure beef. My dad ate it in 9.0 seconds flat. Check it out, it's like this. If I lose, winner takes my happy meal. But if I win, I take the burger and the toy. To some people, that's more important.

          Thnkx Bpt323... There is always motivation...


          Here is the list I made for the rebuild. I'm just waiting for a price+shipping quote.
          It's from importperformanceparts.net (basically their store in netherlands flatlander-ipp.nl)
          The only thing that get's on my nerves is the price difference (for example the hp engine kit in us - 899USD ... in nl - almost 1400 usd) the issue here is that i don't know what would be the customs charge ... and if they overcharge me I'm screwed...

            My personal opinion is get a true gtr oil pump. I was not inpressed at all with my toga hv pump. Its been on for a couple years and its still functioning fine but I think the gtr has more pressure or something. Someone can clarify this for me.

            The rest of the kit looks good. Good luck with the build.

              the only difference in a GTR oil pump is the relief spring(stiffer)... buy some SS 1/4" washers & just shim the one your currently using with a new paper gasket. i wouldn't even replace the oil pump to be honest

                Since his motor is a gtr I'd suggest slapping that spring from the old pump into the toga piece.

                    I'll propably use the stock one that I already have if it's ok. I read stuff about toga pumps and I'm not pleased. Their main and rod bearings are ok ? Because that's what they use in the rebuild kit...
