I'm looking through Spoon Japan's website. http://www.spoonsports.co.jp/j/products/index_f.html and I ran accross the water pump/oil pan section. Is the oil pan baffled? I can't read Japanese so I don't understand what it's saying. To get to the oil pan section, use the drop down menu and it's the 6th one down from the LSD.

 

yes, it's baffled

Yoshi I thought you were the "official picture Fixer"

Moonlighting I see

Yes it is baffled same way the Mugen one is.

 

Aligato Gozai-mazda..

 

are the ITR oil pans worth upgrading for tracking days like the ITR Expo?

hrm/ness...

 

U can see if u can find the oil pan's info at http://www.spoonsports.ca

U can get that or maybe just go for an oil cooler kit which will help a lot too.

 

mugen oil pans are baffled better than spoon. the baffle goes right around the oil pick up, whereas the spoon just has two plates on either side of the pick up. either way, baffling is a good idea. promotes oil suction and prevents oil starvation! kinda like insurance for your motor!

 

I just bought the Spoon one. It's a modified stock pan with two sections brazed in. The Mugen Pan 'looks' better - but functionality should be the same.

Now if I could only figure out why my engine is burning oil like an Iraqi platoon.....

 

LoL...Good ONE! hahahahahahhahahahahhahah

 

does Sp00n still make the aluminum oil pan/ girdle combo?

 

anyone have closeup pics of the Spoon baffled oem oil pan? i can see the two "walls" on the aluminum one but can't make out what they do to the oem one.

 

I was on the website from the link above, why dont you click on english on the top right? It coverts it to english? Or am I missing something here you guys are talking about. It's all in english for me now.
