can't estimate the voulume of sump removed, i left all the conversion work to the shop. It's my first oil change after the conversion, roughly done 5k mileage. All this time, i've perpetually checked the oil level at "full" mark. It's only now that I've realized the capacity of my sump is only 2.5ltrs of oil.
I've searched the thread and other sites as well, & some claim that the normal capacity of a 1G-GTE with an original sump is 4 liters. Anyhow, I now placed 4 liters of oil and the dipstick oil level is around 1/2 inch higher than the "full" mark.

Nevertheless, I've used the car with that little amount of oil for quite some time and has never given me any problems. Oil pressure is likewise normal.

Now, after realizing the little amount of oil used just scares me... Anyone whos done a 1G-GTE RA64 conversions please give me feedback on this.

Thanks for the help.
