OEM Engine Oil Pump Assembly for Nissan Performance

Keep your V6 running strong with a factory-spec engine oil pump ?️. This unit restores correct oil pressure, feeds bearings, camshafts, VVEL components, and piston cooling jets. Built to tight tolerances, it’s the right choice for street, track, or a fresh rebuild. Perfect fit, stable pressure, long life.

Why you need it

High-rev engines demand constant lubrication. The right pump maintains pressure during cold starts, hard acceleration, and long cruises. It cuts wear, keeps temps down, and protects expensive internals. A healthy pump also supports timing chain tensioners and variable valve systems.

How it works

Driven by the crankshaft, a rotor/gerotor draws oil from the sump ?️, pushes it through the filter, then into galleries. A built-in relief valve limits peak pressure, while precision clearances keep flow stable across RPM and temperature.

When it fails

Signs include low oil pressure light, rattling chain, ticking cams, metal glitter in oil, and rising temps ⚠️. Continued driving risks spun bearings and engine seizure. Replace at the first symptoms and always prime the pump with fresh oil.

Quick install tips

Prime the pump, fit a new pickup O-ring and front seal, clean the strainer, use OEM gasket, and torque fasteners to spec. Fill with the recommended viscosity.
