yeah i had a thermostatic plate it was one of those bad lines/ defect things.

Gtr has 2 stage one scavenges from the turbos and sprays toward the pickup the other goes from the pickup through the cooler and to the engine, driven from it's own timing chain.

The vk56vd also has the pump driven by a separate timing chain, but it is the traditional one stage from there.

shouldn't forget to mention that they do this so they can run the pump slower than the crank between .5-.75x crank rpm
