964russ 0 Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 My car is v low, sump is dented in.Ive read that a alloy mk4 r 32 sump fits a mk3 vr, and is higher up. So wont hit the floor.Is this true? A straight swop? Link to post Share on other sites
daxmatt 0 Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Yes but its not just the sump, off the top of my head I think you need need the pick up pipe, possibly the oil pump and the dipstick aswell but I'm sure there's more bits than that needed, and if buying new not much change from around 350 notes Link to post Share on other sites
Lukey. 381 Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Yea its not as deep and you need the shorted parts to accompany, and if you do hit it it wont just scratch or dent like the stock one, its made of alloy and will shatter. Highly unlikely but its worth noting.Edit Theres a sticky in Engine Tuning documenting this very procedure. Link to post Share on other sites
