There is plenty of clearance with the ZSpeed kit.

Does the service access still line up with the drain?

I am not sure about that one. I will try and pull the access panel this weekend and see.

Just removing the ZSpeed center panel is 100% quicker than removing the entire OEM plastic shield. I am SC'ed and have an oil filter relocation kit so I have to remove the center panel for oil/filter changes anyway.

Appreciate it Wind. I have been looking to get this pan & the ZSpeed under pan at sometime.

I think one benifiet people forget about the oil pan upgrade being better than just a spacer is the bafles inside the pan keeping oil at the pick up tube.

Thanks again Wind

It looks doable but might be a tight squeeze for the filter. I never did an oil change stock. My first oil change was when my GTM kit was installed. So I have the filter relocation kit along with the oil cooler supplement.

Removing the access door give shows the GReddy drain hole and the sandwich plate, or where you oil filter would be.

Here are the pictures:

I believe they made a V2 of the tray which is suppose to provide more room for oil pan spacers and bigger sways from rubbing.

The V2 370z Underpan has the same clearance as the Nismo pan shown above. So yes, it will work and fit.

beautiful. Thanks everyone for the information! Looks like my next mod is figured out! I think I'm going to see how my oil temps get with just the upgraded oil pan first, and if it works for my purposes then I will skip the oil cooler. (Mine isn't a track star by any means, but I occasionally drive spiritedly).

Thanks!

The drain is the same as our drain plug M12 x 1.25 the temp sensor threads are 1/8 NP which is the same as BSPT.

Thanks ! I thank about a NP thread regarding the blue plug without head in the other pan ;)

At the same time, Wind.Zero has a Nismo with a middle piece!
Just something to remember

Would like to know also!

Smartass tip of the day.

It’s easy, take one existing bolt out, measure the thread size at your locale hardware/ auto place ect, add the thickness of the new pan and a flat washer so you don't gouge the aluminum.

Nice pan!

Z eliminator 02-28-2014 12:52 PM

Did your pan come with an extensions for the oil pick up ?
