zx14 (zzr1400) oil pan install
I installed my new low profile oil pan today. Comes from Two Wheel Werkz here in the US http://www.twowheelwerkz.com/ Very nice piece. The
quality is excellent and it fit without a hitch.
I did a write up for my build log on LocostUSA. You can find it here at the bottom of page 3:

Lowered the motor by 3" and hopefully will minimize oiling issues in the corners.

hey Jonathan
Looks good
what are you going to do about runing an oil cooler, (if you are going to that is) maybe a sandwich plate between the oil filter? not sure if they are
off the shelf parts
I have emailed Justin about shipping. i'm just not sure what to do yet. Re oil cooler

I'm planning on running it without an oil cooler to start with and then see how it goes. If there is an issue, an external cooler could be
adapted with a sandwich plate or a fitting to move the filter elsewhere as well. There must be something out there that will fit as the turbo kits
use coolers and remote filters. I've got a nice little SPA oil cooler unit on the shelf that I haven't used in years. It could be
brought into service if required.
Justin is a good guy, a bit querky, but a straight shooter. If he doesn't reply to email then call him. The conversation will be worth the
price of admission.
