I need an oil pan
Yeah so I just bent the **** out of my oil pan.
I haven't pulled it yet, but it looks like I'm gong to have to get a new one and a new pickup. Luckily I have the pickup but I need a pan like today. Can anyone help me out??? I don't know if there is a difference between the STi and the WRX pans but I need one for the STi. James

Hate to hear that. I have heard that you have to pull the motor to replace the oil pan...

Ok here's the lowdown. I was using the "jacking plate" and a floor jack. It turns out I didn't have the jack in a good location and the car slipped off of the jack and landed on the oil pan
I just removed the pan. You do not need to pull the engine, you just have to remove the exhaust manifold, and jack one side up to remove the 4 bolts from the rear. To actually get the pan off you have to pull the pickup tube with it wich was really simple. I had damage to my pickup tube, luckily I already had a spare due to my business that I'm trying to start. I am going to try beating the pan flat again. If that doesn't work I may buy your pan. I will post before and after pics of the pan after I get it all beaten out. Jamess |

Beat it flat and then weld it if it has any leaks or questionable areas.
No big deal it happens all the time in racing. |

Yes I pounded the dent out with a 1/2" wratchet extension. I made a pretty in depth write-up on how to pull and install the oil pan, it's posted in the maintenance/service section here on nasioc.
