    There isn't a copper washer.. it's actually an o-ring that seals it.

    I never changed the o-ring for well over 15 oil changes in my Z20let. Never leaked, well not from the sump plug... lol I eventually replaced the o-ring only when I replaced the sump plug.

    Z20let holden spec oil was 15w40! I switched over to 10w40 at approx 100,000km, no adverse affects.. but never tried 5w40 or 0w40.

    I've always run my Z20LET on 10W40, even with the Garrett and EFR's. Moving to a 15W50 for the changed spec engine. Running around on the track at 30+psi and 8,000+rpm I want the extra protection. Click here to enlarge

    Fitted new rear pads after 78,000k's, still had 1/4 pad left and discs aren't even lipped!

    Fire Extinguisher now mounted in the front floor using nutsets so the whole back seat is out for tomoorow now Click here to enlarge

    Took the pod off finally and remounted the airbox, much quieter and feels good!
