Anyone have pics of how you shaved your det oil pan so it clears the cross member? I can't find my dec. 2001 issue of SCC and none of my friends can either.

It is best to do it once the engine is in the car , you will have to position the engine about how it sits , and put the crossmember in and see where they hit , then grind away , usualy on the webs .... When I did the G20 , I actualy notched the crossmember instead of the pan , but the G20 is different than the Sentras......

Shoot me a pm with your email and I'll send you a pick of what it looks like. It is easier with the motor out of the car. I thought I had ground enough, but once the engine/crossmember was in, it still rubbed when accelerating/decelerating. There is plenty of aluminum to grind off and still be safe.

So does this also need to be done to the sentras? I have a '92..

It must be on G20's (December SCC), Sentra's and NX2000 (that's I've done)

Yeah. This needs to be done to all of our fwd sr20 cars because we have cross-members.

yeah that noise is so annoying.kind of a loud buzz. Iwant to fix this quick also. I hate noises in the car.
