It's no secret i'm planning to 7m swap my trail rig

I've been told the 7m will have lubrication issues off camber since it has a shallow sump

What oil pan and pickup can i use that will solve the issue?

Edit: Doing a little more research i found there is a rear and a front sump available.. obviously the rear would be ideal for wheeling but is there a whole different (deeper) oil pan and pickup i should be running?

 

x2 on what Al wants to know.

 

Well you're a wealth of helpful information

 

Bump.

 

Youve seen This yes ? It mentions something about a cressida oil pan in it somewhere..

 

Oh and idk if this has anything oil pan related but it seems like good facts and mod reading..

Good luck bro !

 

Thanks man. Good info.
Yeah i read about that but it didnt say anything about off camber lubrication... idk.

 

Cressida pan is a front sump and isn't baffled from what i remember. Best thing you could do short of building a new pan is add some baffles to slow the oil from being able to slosh back.

also stay away from the factory oil cooler set up since it is a bleed style where it pulls oil from the pressure side and then after cooling just dumps it back in the pan, but this was only available on the GTE anyway.

 

Yeah sounds like i may be making one... i thought i heard something about one i could run though...

 

maybe a JDM option out of a Soarer, Chaser, or similar that would work, but probably harder to source. If i find the pics of my old Cressida projects oil pan, i will post them, but they weren't on my old server with the others, so i'm not sure what happened to them. Been a few years since i researched that engine.

 

YEah. I appreciate it.
I think what i'm gonna do is get a rear sump pan and just add a few inches onto it as well as the pickup
