"This item replaces the factory oil pan, which is usually dented from transport over from japan."

What a crock... usually dented - yeah right.

Do these replacement oil pans really make a significant difference? Maybe for folks running a turbo...

Something looks very wrong about that. First of all, your oil pans are held on by far more than just 10 bolts. Second of all, how can you reach some of those to get them on in the first place? You almost need your hand inside the pan. There must be something they aren't showing us.

On the good side, the extra oil capacity will help spread heat around so it doesn't get as hot.

Yeah, 22 bolts to be exact. Here's a few pics of the REAL Greddy oilpan I installed in my car. I doubt they'd make 2 different types.

I don't know if the ebay seller posted the wrong picture on their auction.
