my buddy has one..looks the same as my moroso that I have..

 

looks good, even i dont think obx can **** up an oil pan

 

BUY it

 

if it was for a 99 civic i probably would

 

dead horse.....

 

i have one. it will fit on any b-seires motor but type-r. its the same as moroso but alot less. we tried to put it on a type-r but the pick up would not work for some reason. dont know why. i think it was hitting something. same as moroso, like 150 bucks i thing compared to 300.

 

so if i bought this, and bought the moroso b-series non-vtec pickup, itll work out. i think imma try it out

you would hope so, but I wouldn't trust them--the oil pan is pretty damn important and you don't want it to fall apart or leak

I really don't think it would be an improvement over the stock one--I mean if you really need something other than the stock one, get the moroso one...even though it is expensive, they are a trusted company that makes nice quality products.

Good luck anyway.

using it for the turbo inlet and the added oil quanity.

 

hmmm... they have one for preludes.. i might be picking one up soon...

 

do they make these for other cars.

anyone tried the moroso pickup with it.

platinum.

 

I saw it while back on ebay but did not think anything of it. I would try it but I already have moroso. OBX might be coming up in the world

 

it's pretty hard to mess up a pan, it looks like an o.k. piece...i want to see the write up once you run it on the car

 

the one thing i was noticing. it says its tapped for a turbo oil return, but look how low both of the bungs are in the pan.

oh WOW! i'd like to contact obx and see if they simply tapped it or if they actually did there homework on where to place it...

good eyes "wantboost"

 

thanks, i looked at that pic like 4 times. couldnt tell if it was just me or if it was actually that low

 

If u look at the moroso one it has 2 of them in the front. I guess OBX forgot to put the top one. I never understood why moroso has 2 in the front and what is the lower one for?

 

i installed one on a b20 once and i wound up grinding and welding on it for about 6 hours.first to make it fit,then it leaked out of almost every weld.it cost more to install it than a moroso would have been

 

I beleive the lweor one is for the oil temp sensor. and there is acutally anotehr bung for oil return. you can't see it in any of the pcitures, but it loosk liek it ahs it's own exit tube into the pan at the bottom right of this pic:

 

here is another view you can see the tube

 

ah, that could be it, so oil doesnt block the line under braking. hmmm. iwondered what that was.

Not really, espically that one. possible things that can be wrong:
-Bad welds (they may either leak, or be weak)
-The flapper on the divider may come loose= no fun for engine
-threads can be tapped wrong, may not seal (on drain and oil inlet holes)

it's so hot oil comin off the turbo gets routed down into the circulating oil, not onto the crank. .
