Message	: It just seems unrealistic to have a small 4 quart oil pan in a Twin Turbo 'Z'. My 2 other cars, a Taurus SHO & Mazda 929S have the same size engine, 3.0, and they hold 5 quarts! Our cars are known to experience oil starvation on high speed courses. Especially high banked courses where the oil stays to one side of the motor from g'forces in turns. if you daily drive, don't sweat it. if you drag race, don't sweat it. if you do PCA events or DriversEdge events, you may want to look into a side oiler mod. 1991 300ZXTT.
