I'm in the market of getting a APS oil pan and Fumoto drain valve. Just in case some of you don't know about Fumoto drain valve, http://www.quickoildrainvalve.com/Pr...oductCode=F106
What is the thread size for drain plug on APS oil pan? 12mm X 1.25mm? 14mm X 1.5mm? 14mm X 1.25mm? The link i pasted doesn't clearly say which i need. One person says this and other one says something else.
For those of you who have these, did you get an adapter for the drain valve because fins of the APS oil pan stopped the drain valve from tightening all the way up? Looks like with the adapter, the drain valve will sit too low.. here 's the link to the adapter: http://www.quickoildrainvalve.com/Pr...uctCode=ADP106
Here's the link to a thread that talks about these: https://my350z.com/forum/forced-indu...tripped-4.html
Eidt:NVM got the answer. 14x1.5mm

I wasn't able to find any dealer that carried APS oil pan in stock.
I placed an order for Stillen High Capacity Oil pan instead.
Does anyone know the drain plug size for Stillen oil pan and stock oil pan?? Called Stillen and the guy said it's same as the stock drain plug size but he sounded unsure.

Not sure about the thread size but I have some other info for you. APS does not sell their oil pans separate any more, it only comes with their kits. Because of the different metal used it actually keep the oil running a little warmer than stock. I use it to avoid crank froth. This is my experience and not some stuff that I heard from some guy.
