Well heres my first ? I Have the greddy oil pan installed on my car. I notice it sits low. Should I swap back to the stock oil pan. My other question is does anyone know the size of the correct bolts on the side for the drain and gauge lines. The guy before me put the wrong bolt in and it leaks alittle.

if you don't put a washer on the drain bolt it will leak. get some from nissan they are cheap and last several oil changes.

Well if you go back to the stock let me know how much and I will even send you a stock pan.

Found out that the threads in the pan for the bolt are stripped. Used some thread sealant tape and it is alot better.

If you have stripped threads in your oil pan, you should get them fixed. Who knows if the teflon will do the trick next time...
