The VQ DE oil pump starts with Special Nissan OEM housing, assembled with our mirror-finished billet oil pump gear. This pump, with 30% more flow than OEM or the “hi rev” will provide superior lubrication throughout the RPM range for your application. It comes standard with a high-flow billet steel backplate with deeper porting and 5th-axis finished ramps. This pump has been validated in multiple extreme horsepower naturally aspirated and turbocharged applications, including the world record-holding naturally aspirated 1/4 mile car of Nisformance.
This unit also comes with a preference for relief valve settings for high RPM pressure. The pump comes standard with 2 shims (+ 20 PSI) unless otherwise specified.

- Pump is thoroughly taken apart, and all parts undergo ultrasonic cleaning, air blast, and hand inspection.
- Pump is hand de-burred.
- Our industry-leading mirror-finished gear set is used
- Stainless Torx heads replace the stock fasteners
- All fasteners are torqued to spec
- Loctite applied to fasteners to prevent back out or loosening
