Any side Left, Right or Middle more advantageous to getting all the old oil out? Hard to tell from the parts diagram if the drain plug is on one side or the other.

Also new to the Supra. Any special service mode/disconnect battery before jacking? Didn't see any in the manual, just wanted to be sure.

I JACKED IT FROM UNDER THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. OIL CHANGE IS SAME AS EVERY CAR I HAVE EVER DONE ON A HONDA. OIL FILTER IS ALOT EASIER TO GET TO BC ITS FROM THE TOP OF THE ENGINE BAY. JOIN OUR GROUP CHAT ON FB.

Thank you. Looks like the passengers would get more out from the way the pan looks to be made.

Entire car as level as possible would be best.

I drive the car up onto these ramps that I made with scrap 2x8 lumber. Car stays perfectly level, and no jacking required.

You were able to get under the car at that height?

Yep… 4 1/2” (three times 1.5”) is more than enough room for me. That said, I am on the lean side at 6’0” and 160 pounds.

Car needs to be level for all the oil to come out. You ramp only guys need to jack up the rear to get all the oil in the pan.
