    Think about it, you just did an oil change. Maybe the problem is related to that.
    Yes and no. It's more cause I don't even have the money/time/resources ATM to even replace the oil pans/gaskets. Which is why I'm gonna wait for a little for a better time. However, I'll be trying to maybe coordinate something with le butt Chugg soon :D

    Also yes and no. I replaced all before New Years, and drove back down from the bay-sd no problems. And probably driven it 300 miles since then. I'm pretty sure the drain plug/seal are on properly.

    I need to remove the ej night skid plate to examine it a bit closer in due time.

      Welp, looks like I have a cracked lower oil pan!

      Wooo #4!!!

      But this time it doesn't really compute to me. This hasn't happen in over 3 years.
      Since then, I installed a thick ass EJ night skid plate, got some stiff bilstein sports as well.

      What's the most confusing is that I did not bottom it out, to my knowledge, any time recently.

            Get that pan fixed, the worst thing to do is let a car sit. Motivation goes down the drain. You live in one of the best states for E30 enthusiasts, I'm sure someone would help you with the labor and parts. Seen too many cars meet their death this way.
