Ive searched around for the answer, but I cant seem to find it. Does anyone know the exact coolant capacity of a Koyo rad on an SR20, or the oil capacity of the Greddy oil pan?
Ive heard the oil pan is approx 0.5L greater capacity, but Id like to know for sure. Come to think of it, I dont know the SR20s stock oil capacity either… :oops: :o
Thanks
I see you didn’t get a response, probably because everyone thought the same as I did… who cares?
Fill the cooling system until it’s full, bleed it with the engine running, top it up, fill coolant expansion tank to the line, done.
Fill the oil pan until the level is at the full line on the dipstick. Run the motor, check for leaks, let the oil drain back down from the head, check level, top off if necessray, done.
If you need an idea of how much coolant, and how much oil to get, get a 4 liter jug of each, get pure antifreeze and then mix it 50:50 with water. For oil I suggest Castrol GTX 10/30 regualr dyno oil for initial startup then change the oil and filter after 1000km and switch to synthetic then if you desire.
Are you ready to start this thing already? It’s only been about 11 months!

Good luck with the oil pan. Just try not to ride it across the curbing at Fabi while trying not to hit El Prez’s car :oops:
haha yes, I know I deserve all the grief I get for how long this has taken, but school is over as of this week, and its just about ready to go.
As far as the capacities, its not a problem to just top it up as necessary, I thought someone might be able to save me a bit of time. :o
