SR owners please...

My 98' s13 SR is about to drop into a 92' S13 chassis BUT i dont have my oil pan yet....will i have access to my oil pan after the engine is in? will nothing interfere so that i can screw on the new oil pan?
Thanks

No, you would have to lift the lmotor up a bit, the crossmember and sway bar are in teh way.

For SR20DET, you can install the oil pan when the engine is in. For stock KA24DE motor, part of the oil pan is above the crossmember, so it'll get in the way.

The final year of 180SX in japan is late 1997 or early 1998.
