Default Will the oil pan for a 1987 fit a '90 model?

I need a oil pan for a 1990 Toyota Supra Turbo 3.0 7MGTE. I have found a 1987 model oil pan and I was wonder what years it would fit?

Default More about the oil pan for the 90 model Supra

It is a 90 model Supra with a Turbo and a 3.0 engine. It is 7MGTE engine.
Was more than one year made for that oil pan? Need any information that you can give me for this year model.

It would probably help if you posted in the right section... you want the MKIII section.

Looking at a parts catalog the pan vehicles manufactured for the '91 USDM model year have a different part number... I can't recall ever noticing a significant difference but if you want to be sure don't use a pan from any vehicle manufactured after 8/90.

I suppose my post was a bit confusing. Vehicles made AFTER 8/90 use a different oil pan... This means '86.5, '87, '88 are the same; '89 and '90 are the same; '91, '92 and '93 are the same. I do not know precisely what the differences are though; There was a subframe change in '89 and I suppose there may have been another after '90 or the difference may be structural.

Which do you have a '90 or a '91? What's the manufacture date on the car?

According to the vin code it is a 91 model. We don't have the car just the vin code.

Looks like the oil pump changed with the oil pan revisions too. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Librar...t.aspx?S=15100

Anyway, sounds like you need a '91+ oil pan and pump.

can't speak for after 1990, but I'm pretty sure the 87-90 pans all fit. The big difference I have seen in them is that the steering rack changed between 88 and 89, but I have an engine from an 87, and have a 90 and they seem identical on the outside(size and shape wise).
