What about people running big power and as they aint a lot of money better to be safe than sorry 8)

Fair play mate i just came across it on E bay and thought id ask the question

 

[nismoboy]

I see this as a good mod, more oil is always a good thing and it will help with reducing the oil temps aswell

 

[Keira]

oil cooler will increase oil capacity

can always add plates to the standard sump if anyones that worried about surge, ppc has been covering mods to the sump and dry sump conversions past few editions 8) .

 

[Nad]

Ive read up on these, its good because the larger capacity drops the oil away from the crank and reduces paracitic (IIRC) loses and increases power

Zia, ner ner :lol:

Sorry guy's don't meant to spoil the fun your obviously all having, but you can stop dreaming now......... These big wings sump's don't fit the Pulsar.

Been here, bought one and sold it again about 12 months ago. The sump pan bolt pattern is the same and it would fit but they are ment for an inline engine gearbox layout not transverse like the Pulsar, theres just to much shit in the way on the pulsar.

As it says in the actual add "This is a big capacity oil pan upgrade kit for S13/S14/S15 SR20DET".

Some Monkey has just worded the advert to get GTiR owners to look at the add or he has assumed like so many so called "Tuners and sellers" that the SR20DET engine is the same what ever body it's in.

Once this sump pan was in my hands I could see there was no way it was ever going to fit, so I offered it up just to make sure and NO was the answer.

If you really wanted an extra capacity sump pan you could mod the standard one and fit big wings and baffles but as someone above has already said there would be no point, the GTiR version of the SR20DET engine has one of the best oil flow rates of all the Nissan engines and has one of the biggest pumps.
Unless running very low on oil or the sump has been dented up onto the pickup pipe the R' just doesn't suffer oil starvation and if it cooling your worried about go get an Oil cooler kit or a bigger one than you already have.
