Question to the Gurus,
I just finish my hybrid motor break-in. While changing the oil I notice some oil residue around the bolts holding the oil pan (2.0 pan). I cleaned out the area. 2 days later I see the oil again. I'm a little confused to either replacing the 2.0 pan or get a sti pan? also what parts would I need? I never had any issues with the 2.0 pan. Please help me decide. Thanks.

STI pan + dipstick + pickup + baffle. Use WRX dipstick tube.

STi pan is better for performance driving. For track you may want to consider an aftermarket solution
06+ is a little bit better than the 05-05 STi Pan |

Part numbers look right but you'll need a dipstick tube too, and not a a bad idea to replace the dipstick tube o-rings. The local hardware store should have these much cheaper than the factory pieces and they work just as well
Oh, and if you're going to keep the car for more than 30K miles after replacing the OEM pick up tube please beware of the failures that occur with this part. As you can imagine the results from such a failure are nearly always catostrophic. SEE PICS HERE. |

I see. Could you tell me where can I get such ultimate pick up like in your album (for an STi EJ25 06-07 oil pan?
And by the way maybe you also know dipstick tube PN for STi oil pan? Thanks! |

Not sure on the part number for the dipstick tube, but any dealer should be able to find that out for you. |

The STI dipstick tube doesn't fit on the WRX though, and the dipstick actually reads the exact same level regardless of which tube you use. Am I missing something?

There is a thread around here somewhere that has pictures of the different dipsticks and dipstick tubes. |

I meant that too. The EJ20 setup I have (older 2.0 WRX) fits my EJ25 longblock.
The bracket is slightly different and the length from the bracket to the top end (where the dipstick goes in) is different. From the bracket down, they are identical. Maybe there was a part change mid year that I'm unaware of? |

So after spinning a rod bearing on a 2.5 hybrid setup (after spirited curvy road driving, aka Tail of the Dragon) I'll be replacing my oil pan with an 06+ STI oil pan... I'm also planning on the Cosworth baffle plate to ensure that doesn't happen again!
Are you aware of any fitment issues with using your pickup, an STi pan and the Cosworth baffle? |

I'm getting ready to change the oil pan on my 03 WRX so I can run ELH. Do you have a part # on the 06+ dip stick tube? I would totally buy a Killerbmotorsport pickup if it was around $100 (which is still 4-5x higher then factory), but at $200 it's a tough buy. Last edited by Fierysun; 12-02-2009 at 07:47 PM. |

If you think $200 is a tough buy then you'd definitly not be happy about having to replace the shortblock (and more). It's cheap insurance if you look at it that way, and something you NEVER have to worry about again. I wish I could sell them for less, but it's a VERY robust design with features no one else offers and I wouldn't make any money selling them for $100. Pictures don't do the part justice. Hold one in your hands and it becomes immediately undestood that you can tow you car with this part. And if cost is THAT much of an issue (you're not the only one that's cheap on here) I'll tell you what I tell them. Replace the OEM pickup every 26K miles and you'll be set. I have no documented failures before then and at ~$20 a pickup you can do it many times over the life of the car and spend less than the cost of my ultimate pickup. |

I think the dipstick tube is the same. Remember chris we measure both and there the same distance...

Just to add a footnote here. For those of you running JDM setups anything goes as far as what pan/dipstick tube/dipstick you've got in there. Safe bet is if you're going to a STi (or 06+ EJ25) pan is get the other stuff too. |

I've got a JDM 2.0 STi with an EJ257 block + pan but 2.0 dipstick + tube. I knew something was off after the first oil change. Car reads full after only 4 qts. I've just been adding 4.5qt on changes and then adding another half qt anytime the reading drops close to the F mark.
I just received my new dipstick+tube. Can I change the tube with the pan full or should I wait until the next oil change? I noticed the tube hole on the pan sits fairly high. I guess I'll just wait until the next change. In the meantime I'll try just the dipstick and see how that changes readings. |

Not to get off topic, but has anyone looked at the oil pan on the 2010 legacy?
