It all looks like an amazing setup, but from what I understand, it's not even a complete kit. It's missing lines etc. Also, the price ? completely RETARDED.....lol

Too bad they couldn't sell the Pan and Pump Bracket separately.....I even asked ;)

Pan, Yes....Pump Bracket ? NOT a chance.

I wouldn't want the pan. The bracket is the only part i would want anyways.

This is the pan to use

why not something like this http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Rb-External-Oil-Pump-Kits-t252332.html

If someone mass produced a bracket for a standard brand it would be a gold mine. like peterson

I was researching dry sumps a bit, and stumbled on this thread:
Dry-sump construction - PerformanceForums

Basically, he describes a dry sump that taps into the stock oil pump. Only needs a simple scavenge pump, oil tank, and new oil pan.

Simplifies to this:

This assumes we can actually tap an external line into our pump somehow. Dunno if it'll work, but seems like a much cheaper solution.

Have you tried ARE in California (they have been making dry sump setups since 1974) -

http://www.drysump.com/drysump.htm

They make custom cast dry sump sumps, etc for Nissan, etc engines.

Or asked Eric Hsu where they got the dry sump bracket made (company might still have design on computer somewhere) for the XS engineeering R32GTR -
