The Greddy oil pain is only worth 200 maybe 225, thats it!! But if your one of those cool kids, who has to have the top brands go far it!

why not be useful and tell us how it is instead of saying what half of the people in here already said. any issues thus far? how long have you had it.. answer some questions that have been asked instead of repeating things please.

Hey man, a free market economy is a democracy where you vote with your dollars. Buy what you want, but I have to ask if you would be so sensitive if you didn't realize you had done something wrong? In reality most people base the "value of a dollar" on what they themselves earn. You can't really blame them I suppose. I guess you can't put a dollar value on perspective.

sigh....... you're are almost 30 and still dont "GET IT"

it has nothing to do with the economy, it has to do with one thing: you're a cheap fuck. if you cant afford something good, then leave the shit stock.

ISIS... even the name sounds fucking retarded.

I think it would be rather interesting/funny to see a company or someone with mad money go out, buy a car, then slap a shit load of Knockoff parts on it. Then go beat the hell out of it. JUST to see what would happen to said parts, do a write up stating duration of time used cause of malfunction, and ways to prevent this malfunction from occurring in the future. To be fair they would have to use the parts keeping them within the same stress tolerances of the name brand product. IF a accident should occur all data for parts broken would be scrubbed and started over.

I agree with whats being said, buy a name brand product and think of it more as an insurance policy on your engine. It'll just give you some piece of mind in the long run. If buying knockoffs is your deal then by all means have at it, just remember that IF or WHEN these parts break or malfunction... You discussed it here and had it within your power to buy a better product, also think about costs... If you purchase the knockoff, the knockoff breaks but you don't have catastrophic failure, you still have to purchase a new part. why put yourself through that struggle frustration and anxiety, oh and you just spent the same amount on the 2 knockoffs as you would have on the name brand piece.

rex2sx · 06-23-2010, 02:13 PM

Ok. Stop talkibg about the economy. Its not getting better becuase you bought domestic parts, and its not getting wose. Becuase the entire well being of our economical standpoint is soloely based aroudn the devleopment and purchasing of aftermarktet accessories right??? HAHaha fools...

What we have yet to see is someone who experienced this problem first hand. If you havent..SHUT UP! DO NOT POST or at least DONT FLAME. We, well i have, heard/seen knock of tubros blowing seals and knockoff manifolds cracking. But what about this "crappy manifold"? No? Until i see someone suffer engine failure i would personally buy the knock.

Dont hate somebody becuase they want to buy the knockoff. Hate them becuase their BF next door got the orignal and they wanna be just like him.

This thread is 2 freakn yrs old and its still being discuesssed??? OP, if your still here, DID YOU EVEN GET THE PAN???

Om1kron · 06-23-2010, 03:34 PM

the economy is bad and I'm buying car parts... *facepalm*

Duosx · 07-02-2010, 05:03 PM

moral of this thread:

The better the oil pan the more you help the economy.

and

If you buy knock off your helping support terrorism.

DimsumRN · 07-03-2010, 02:57 PM

^----- LOL.

+1 on the Moroso though. I don't think they still make it, but if you can find one used they were initially cheaper than the Greddy and its good quality.

Patrick Bowering · 07-05-2010, 08:12 PM

My moroso oil pan just showed up from enjuku i bought and isis one and that is one isis product I suggest not buying. I am running an isis rad, fans, intake mani, short shifter. but the oil pan was a pos. needs to be decked before install and drain plug rethreaded. the moroso one is hand tigged and looks amazing i will repost later after i install it tonight.

sickrbs14 · 07-05-2010, 08:31 PM

spring the extra money for not havin to worry if these people are right about isis
word on isis is ify at best

240sxfamily · 07-05-2010, 08:33 PM

Its a hunk of metal people relax. I have one and its perfect, I compared it with a Moroso. Its the same minus saying Moroso..

WISH ONE · 07-06-2010, 02:10 PM

miller1775 · 07-06-2010, 05:45 PM

If they were cheap enough, I'm sure half the jerift kids would be all over it.

Even if it was made out of spormax metal.

I know this is suuuuuuuuuper old but hows your moroso pan holding up?

sidewaysil80 · 12-23-2010, 01:54 PM

i just got mine (moroso) in the mail and the welds are amazing...it's a really really solid piece. i can't wait to install it...i'm SLIGHTLY concerned with clearance...that and i hate installing them cause i'm hella paranoid about not tightening them enough and having leaks LOL.

Patrick Bowering · 12-25-2010, 11:34 AM

My mororso pan is great no leaks some nuts are really tight to the pan but nothing crazy. You do not have to do the nuts up super tight torque spec is under 15ft lbs iirc nor do you need tons of silicone.

sidewaysil80 · 12-25-2010, 01:19 PM

so on the four large bolts (the ones you undo to hit the flange bolts) do you rtv/loctite those back in place or what?
