    Custom low profile oil pan for m20?

    Hey, anyone knows if i can buy a low profile oil pan for an m20 somewhere online? I looked but all i could find are oilpans for ls swaps. Busted mine a while ago, and finally decided to maybe fix the car, looking for options right now.

    Thanks.

    No need for a custom pan. Get a good skid plate and be mindful of road hazards. You should be fine for a long time :)

      Had a Red46 skidplate, it did very well for about 3 years now but finally gave out. Basically what happened is car started acting up i decided to pull over to the middle (not a lane) and i hit one of these piece of craps Pushed the skidplate inside so much that the oilpan just cracked.

        for those type of issues, you need to run the Jgee plate. I would say the red 46, and race skids types are more for day to day, small rock or debris in road

                yeah, I feel you. I was hecka pissed myself. Thought they were simple reflectors (didn't really pay too much attention because like I said, car was acting up), but boy was I wrong. Car jumped in the air after I hit it and its been like half a year now since it drove :(

                  Does your Jgee plate sits lower than then Red46 one btw? or is it approx the same height from the ground? Thanks

                      I see, probably going to go with it. Don't want to deal with busted oil pan again.

                        I've still cracked my oil pan with a Red46 skid plate as well..hit a chunk of metal something on the freeway one night, shoved the plate into the pan and cracked it
