Racefab Oil Pans.

[MJTru]

Has anyone tried an extended rb26 oil pan from Rob at RaceFab.

I just paid for one and was wondering what you guys think about it. Here in the USA we have team Raw Brokerage that builds oil pans for rb26. But like kyle from 6 Boost I thought I would trust in Rob to build a good unit for me. In doing so I can garranty sales from the USA and Caribbean countries either through me or direct.

Any comparisons would be helpful until I receive my unit. After arrival in take close photos of both and we all can make comparisons.

I got one from rob and haven't had any problems with it, I think it's one of the best sumps you can get.

PM me your email and I can send you some pictures

How much do they go for?

[MJTru]

Well he is selling them for 1575NZD with oil returns.

$750 exchange but I guess freight makes that difficult:

One of our (SDU) members has just fitted a Racefab sump - pics on post numbers 545 653 657 and 685

I use one of these from Performance Metalcraft in Rydalmere. I dont know what they retail for but they can be made to whatever spec you want. Ours is a 2WD so the diff is removed and holes plugged

Would only take you a minute to create a name and password then you could see the whole build thread but I'll stick up a few pics:

Just noticed that if you hover over the RH side of the pic you will find a forward arrow that gives you access to a whole load of pics.

and most of them leak due to using a porous alloy

Surely someone has used a Lewis Engines sump before?

They're very well priced as well compared to the rips stuff which is bs expensive Imo

Call asr directly skipping out the middle man and you'll save quite a bit, my race pan was about 250 cheaper than what most people advertise them for

I have one, looks the goods but the car isn't running just yet.

not this one mate, Leon has been making them for years, ours has been on the car for years, and not one drop of oil has seeped through it

[Shoota_77]

I've got one. As per DCEIVE I haven't used it yet but it's a brilliantly made piece of kit.

Rob is a top bloke and easy to deal with.

The $150 each way in freight for a big heavy bulky sump is a killer but still a lot cheaper than anything locally (unfortunately).

Rob can build it exactly how you want it. I added numerous -10 fittings and an external oil pick up. The welds are AMAZINGLY good.

[MJTru]

Yes Rob sent me a photo of the one he build for me. It looks great and can't wait to see it in person. If I'm happy with the work I'm sure I'll buy another and a friend of mine wants one for his r32 gtr

All alloy is porous..
