AtomChurch Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Why would you make a rear sump pan as opposed to just flipping the crossmember? Are you afraid of hitting something?? Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 It makes sense to me... Not messing with something structural Not having to get a custom sway bar. I would do the same, I dont like the idea of flipping the crossmember. Quote Link to comment
DAT510 Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 ^Same. seems like a lot less work. I assume there are rear sump KAs as well? What are you going to do for the pick up tube? Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 D21s are rear sump, but 2 problems... It hits the centerlink (510 is more of midsump) And a D21 oilpan will hit the 240sx girdle... Quote Link to comment

I only asked cause of the pick up tube, unless there is a magical way to make pick up tubes easy.. :lol: Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted May 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Why would you make a rear sump pan as opposed to just flipping the crossmember? Are you afraid of hitting something?? Im not a big fan of flipping the crossmember, esp not when I can make a rear sump pan. no nonsense of the front sway bar issue either. ^Same. seems like a lot less work. I only asked cause of the pick up tube, unless there is a magical way to make pick up tubes easy.. :lol: I dont know if its necessarily less work... but I dont have to flip the crossmember or get a custom sway bar. and a pick up tube is just a tube with a screen at the end. just going to modify the stock tube to pick up from the rear sump.

Duke Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Having made a pan, I would say that it is harder than flipping the crossmember. I did it because my car is pretty low and I didn't like the idea of the pan sitting up there waiting to smack the road at any moment. I don't know anything about single cam KA's, but I know with the twin cam you can't use a rear sump pan on the front sump car engine. The bolt pattern and oil pump are both totally different.

MicroMachinery Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Skib, if you need any hints on your pickup(I'm guessing you're doing a DE from a 240sx), PM me. I've got the droids you're looking for.. Quote Link to comment
