There's been a few complaints arising about the Tomei N2 oil pans lately. Quite strange considering Tomei are supposed to have a reputation for quality.

Anyway, the old MSRP for the n2 oil pan used to be $790, however, about 3 years ago the MSRP was reduced to $390 I believe. Quite a significant price drop..

Here is a bit of food for thought, some Japanese companies have started outsourcing production for some of their items to China. I guess it's a sign of the times.

It's because I bought my oil pan directly from Japan (to save myself some money). So shipping is my responsibility seeing as there are local Tomei dealers in Australia whom I could have bought the oil pan off, make sense?

I love S15's, the end of the year they become legal here so I will be placing an order for my Spec R. for now I will be subscribing to your thread and living vicariously through you
Lol yeah awesome, the S15 is a great car. The styling of the car is timeless - will always look like a classic, yet modern sports car.
