ARC Oil Pan
Holds an extra quart of oil. Is sliiiiiightly slanted towards the drain plug so oil can drain quickly in an oil change out of the whole pan... comes with all hardware needed for install as well as some sealant...
best of all in stock

guys everything ARC is expensive, it's no surprise....their oil caps are $100 for gods sake 
the idea was not to make a race spec pan with baffles, as there is no evidence yet that a Z even needs something that elaborate (unless its a full on race car). Everything ARC makes is factory spec and beyond..the welds, the materials used are second to none. Plus, unlike other "JDM brands" (and yes, I use that term very loosely), everything ARC makes is done in house in Japan. Labor and material costs in Japan are much higher than they are in China, where loads of JDM comapnies sub contract out to (many companies, which are big names in the industry do this). ARC does not, and as such, the prices and quality reflects it.

Moroso's pans are fairly nice, priced well, and nearly all of them have at least a rudimentary baffling system. I've been considering contacting them to see if they would produce a baffled high-capacity oil pan, or a dry sump oil pan (or both
). Thanks for bringing us the news about the ARC products. Even if it may not be the best solution for me personally, it's great to see product diversity.
