What's the diff between the Nismo and stock oil pump?

From what I remember, the gears are hardened metal rather than the sintered metal we get that likes to come un-sintered at high rpm.

the oil light came on and it would not go over 2500 rpm.
lots of noise from the front cam gears and clunking from the bottom of the motor.

I believe it is billet as opposed to cast like the stock piece. Don't know if there is any additional hardening or not but I imagine so.

According to the Nismo Catalog, the part is listed as a "NISMO billet oil pump, VQ37VHR." Part number: 15010-RRZ3C1. So yeah, as far as we know, it's at least a billet machined piece of steel, which should be able to withstand the higher RPM's.
