Default Moroso Sump

Hi all,

I have amongst all my parts a Moroso sump that I had planned on using
on my turbo build, that was meant to go into my EK.

This is going to go into my 98 ITR now, but the problem is, and correct
me if I'm wrong, the Moroso sumps don't clear the transmission brace that's
specific to the ITR, especially because, I'm guessing, this is an added capacity sump.

My question is, will this be an issue with any additional capacity sumps that
I attempt fitting to the ITR, as none but stock will fit?

I can get a Spoon baffled sump, but its just an oem sump with baffled plates welded in,
& no oil return plug and no added capacity either.

Correct..just take that transmission brace off and don't run it. Common issue and cure.

I'm not keen on removing the brace. Surely it's there for a reason.

Rather the Spoon sump then?

Baffled oil pan > transmission brace that isn't in the least bit critical. You really don't need it.

Yes, I'm far too pedantic I guess, so this will
be my first option.
