This Sikky BMW E36 3 Series LSX mid-sump oil pan is designed to simplify LS swap conversions and is manufactured in the USA. Our oil pan is constructed with a 1/2" thick 6061 billet aluminum flange and back plate, providing superior strength that lasts longer and performs better than other pans on the market. Thanks to our 100% aluminum design, the Sikky pan is lightweight and extremely durable, unlike flimsy sheet metal pans. As with all Sikky products, this pan has been tested under rigorous track conditions to ensure that only the highest quality parts are provided for your LS swap.
Pan Features:
- Designed for a perfect fit around the front subframe of the BMW E36 3 Series chassis when using Sikky mount kits
- High-capacity 5 1/2" deep front sump design with side kick-outs for maximum oil capacity
- 1/2" thick CNC-machined 6061 billet aluminum flange and back plate
- Machined gasket surface for a leak-free seal
- Rigid design similar to OEM GM pans for maximum strength and durability
- Includes a back plate compatible with the stock dust cover to prevent debris from entering the bell housing
- High ground clearance design ensures the pan does not hang below the bottom of the car
- High-capacity 5-quart sump (oil filter or oil filter relocation not included)

Before Placing Your Order
○ Regarding Import Consumption Tax
At the Shafutoya shopping site, we pay the import consumption tax incurred at the time of import on your behalf, so there will be no additional charges beyond the total amount paid at checkout.
○ Confirmation of Compatibility
As our entire product database is based on North American specification vehicles (USDM), please verify compatibility with Japanese specification vehicles (JDM) before ordering. (If you are unsure whether the listed product is compatible with your vehicle, please feel free to contact us. Our support team will be happy to assist you.)
If you place an order without confirming compatibility, we cannot accept returns due to incompatibility.
Please note that even if a product is sorted by selecting the year, manufacturer, and model via the tabs on our homepage, it does not necessarily guarantee a bolt-on fit for Japanese market vehicles.
All products are translated into Japanese using translation software. As there may be confusing expressions, please contact us with any questions before ordering.
○ Regarding Delivery
Shipping costs are paid at the time of payment. Estimates for shipping can be calculated automatically by entering your shipping address on the checkout page. For large items such as body parts, there may occasionally be a significant discrepancy between the automatically calculated shipping cost and the actual cost. In such cases, we will contact you individually via email.
In principle, all products are shipped internationally from our warehouse in the United States. Unlike domestic shipping in Japan, international shipping takes approximately 7 to 14 days, so please allow sufficient time for your order. If you are in a hurry, please contact us in advance to confirm the delivery date. Note that all products are transported by air; they are not shipped via sea freight.
○ Regarding Japanese Vehicle Inspection (Shaken) Compatibility
Essentially, all products handled by our company are designed and manufactured outside of Japan. Please understand that they are not compliant with the "Japanese Vehicle Inspection System," and we cannot provide strength calculation documents for Japanese inspection purposes. Therefore, all parts are sold for the purpose of "use on tracks, private property, or off-road use," and installation and use are at your own risk.
○ Regarding Warranty
Please check the contents immediately upon arrival. As all products are shipped internationally from outside Japan, there may be shipping damage to the packaging or the product itself. We will provide returns, refunds, or replacement products for items that are damaged during shipping, defective, or incorrect only if you contact us within 7 days of receipt. Please understand that for products sold through us, warranty support will be provided "exclusively through us." We do not provide support through other companies or distributors based in Japan.
