sorry if this is the wrong section, but has anyone used one of the sr20det circuit sports over sized oil pans? It looks to be great quality and not a bad price at all. I'm considering ordering one but there are zero reviews or anything anywhere

Have it, love it.

good to hear! how long have you had it on? and how much oil does it hold?

Circuit Sports makes some pretty cool accessories... They are definitely a decent quality, more affordable line... I prefer them over Megan, Isis and the other 'off' brands. I've got various CS bits all over my car.

However, when it comes to lubrication, cooling, fueling etc... I would never use an off-brand product (besides overflow reservoir)- To include the oil pan. This is not meant to bash; and I have no experience with this oil pan- just something for you to consider. It very well could be all that and a bag of chips.

I don't disagree most of the time but the CS pan is a Tomei copy. Welded, not cast like most of the other off brands that copy the greddy oil pan. I got a PBM skid plate for a tiny bit more protection as well. I've had it on my car a year, it's a track car. Seems to be doing its job. With the oil cooler too, capacity is up there - 5 or 6 quarts IIRC.

I ended up ordering the pan, ill see how it is soon. and I'll most likely get a skidplate just to help a little. also putting in an s14 oil pick up so I think i'll be better off than stock, Ive got a redtop sr

I have this exact same setup. It rules.

i like the canton racing oil pan

i got the circuit sports pan when i did my sr swap due to it being crushed.

i love it minus the fact that its about an inch above the crossmember. id like it to be a little higher... but id assume thats how all aftermarket pans are. holds an extra quart.

Do you have the stock engine mounts in your car?

I've got my pan about a 1/4" above the subframe, just spaced the motor mounts up with some big washers.
