J240ZTurbo Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 240z conversion into turbo can I used a NA oil Pan in a Turbo L28et? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zmanco Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 The turbo pan has a connection on the driver side for the turbo oil return, but some have made their own fitting and used a NA pan. Not having done this myself, does anyone know if there is any other difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyro Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 there are two types of Z oil pans. rear sump and center sump. As long as the matching pickup tube for the oil pump is used then you can use any pan. That is, use a rear sump pick up tube with a rear sump pan, or use a center sump pickup with a center sump pan. A turbo is a rear sump pan. A 280z uses a center sump pan furthermore, you can use any style pan for a turbo as long as you install the turbo drain line in the same position as the stock turbo pan.

Young Z Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Doesn't the turbo oil pan hold 1 or 2 more quarts of oil as well because of the turbo itself and all of the lines? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhartig Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I was looking at this tonight as I want to install a turbo on my old L24 before swapping in an L28 later. The L28 is a rear sump with the tubo tube at 16" from the front. The L24 is still on the car but it looks to have the sump set about 4" forward of the L28.
