Default LS400 vs GS400 Oil Pan - Same?
As the title says. I am curious if the LS400 and GS400 oil pan setup are the same. I believe the LS400 oil pan is a front sump setup. Wanting to know if the GS400 is the same.

Yes

same 1UZ-FE engine

and therefore same Toyota p/n 12111-50060 oil pan

so not only are they the same design, they are the exact same part! - interchangeable!

xUZ:
GS/LS are front sump.
SC/Soarer are rear sump.
