Show us your sump!

[cat007]

Just interested in what sort of sumps you're all running - transverse engine or longitudinal engine.

I do like the idea of making a sump that holds a decent amount of oil and will help prevent surging.

Dry Sump!
3sge beams longitudinal engine
Holds no oil.. but prevents surging




Probably not to helpful, but gives you another option.

not "toyspeed" related but i have a winged and baffeled with hinges morosso sump on my s14 drift car and dave at d-tech fitted a pressure sensor switch that limits power at certain oil pressure and at low pressure motor shuts off to prevent oil starvation,

sensor bout $350 plus a tune map on the link, would benefit anyone that goes racing/hill climb whatever your into,

Beautiful dry sump, very jealous.

Luckily the jza80 has a very well designed "rear" sump from the factory, with large capacity, and a windage tray of sorts. I have tracked my car alot, and have an oil pressure gauge to keep an eye on things, but even running full slicks, Im yet to notice a drop off in OP through long constant radius turns.

With that said, if I ever have to remove my engine in the future, I will without a shadow of a doubt get a proper baffle system and complete windage tray installed to make my setup even safer.

i run a wet sump 3sge motor ,the only things that i have done is drop the oil pick up 5 mm further down with 1 gasket alloy spacer and another gasket
on the steel pan just block off around the pan and put a 26 mm extension on the dip stick hole .works well and im pulling 1.8 g through corners with wet sump
