oil pan rb20det into s13

[dylzoid269]

so i busted my oil pan and i need to put in a new one obviously but i dont see how to get the old one out let alone the new one in because of how tight the space is around it. i have lifted the engine up a bit but it seams the motor mounts are on there too good for the engine to be lifted up enough to get the oil pan in and out. i figured someone had to have run into this problem before but hasnt posted about it yet because i used my find function up and down the forum and found nothing . so if anyone has any imput on what i should do I would greatly appreciate it. thanks

Prob get the car up in the air, then put it on a hoist then lower the crossmember till you have enough room? Never had to pull mine off before with it in the car.

I don't have a lift or hoist. I can get it towed to a friends shop if necessary but I am more or less trying to use floor jack and jack stands lol
