Greddy oil pan size

How much larger is the Greddy oil pan that comes with thier TT kit? I emailed Greddy directly and got "Thanks for your interest in GReddy Products
But actually the G35/350Z is pretty close to the same capacity. But even if it were a much higher capacity our oil pans are designed to give the correct level on the dip stick, no mater the capacity. Just go by the dip stick reading." I just want to know how much more oil everyone is able to fit in their car with it installed.

It's not much physically bigger but with the extra lines the motor winds up taking about a quart more. Give Larry a shout. He'll tell you the same thing since he's had my motor(s) apart a few times.

generally speaking yes because the dipstick measures the oil from the top but its more related to the oil pickup tube. if the stick shows one quart low then you will be one quart low no matter the oil pan size and will need to add more. i hope this makes sense
