Hi, just bought an SR4 with the ZZR1200 engine.

Any ideas where I could get a copy of the user manual.
And possibly a drysump kit for the engine?

Thanks

I have a Muzzy dry sump pan if you are interested?

You will also need the oil pump from a ZZR1100 to go into the 1200 (The 1100 has a larger capacity scavenge pump despite the fact the 1200 and 1100 pumps look identical externally). I might have one of those too possibly.

Yes this will fit your zzr1200 engine, you have to do a small mod to the crank cases whatever make of dry sump you use but I can provide that info for you.

I modified this sump to include an oil return from a turbo (and was used on both my 1100 and 1200 zzr engines) and could either easily be blanked or used for the external cylinder head drain.

Hi, Thanks..
Despite what the previous owner said about the car.. It already has a dry sump system!
Silly me!

Thank you again.
If you would know where I could find any info on oil level checking procedure for a zrr1200 with drysump would be greatly appreciated.

Im in Bahrain, Middle East so no other SR4 over here

Cheers

HAha. No he just drove it once a year if that! Was a really good deal so jumped at it.

Just needs some tidying up and will be a really nice car.
