Default Oil pan spacer? which one help!

hey guys,

well my engine started to burn up some oil. i usually check my oil levels, its usually near normal. burns up like .5 of a quart? ..but this time while i was changing my oil. i ONLY had 2.5quarts returned. so i was thinking of getting the JWT oil pan spacer. but theres 2 kinds. 1 with a port and 1 without.

my question is, which should i get? i believe the one with a port is just like a drain plug right? and if i get the one without a port i can still use the stock oil drain plug right?

price @WCN $92 w/o port $130 w/ port

any suggestions?

hope i'm making sense. i just don't want any expensive suprises in the near future. my 350z is a 05 with only 28k miles

port is if your car is turbo'd. Is your car turbo'd?

So is the JWT the brand to get? Or are there better brands for around the same price?

The ported pan spacer is used for turbo oil return lines. Just get the standard non ported model for what you're wanting to do.
