Default Oil Drain Valve???

Is anyone interested in purchasing these new quick release oil drain valves? I am trying to get about 20 members together, so I can get a bulk discount on these fab valves. They are usually $49 plus $7 postage, but I'm hoping to land them at a discount.

They look like the business. I know someone who uses them without any problems so far. They have a lifetime warranty & are made in Japan - not Chinese or Taiwan crap.

There has been many discussions on these things, remember if you car is guido low, the first bump you hit you will be draining your oil.

I think that's only if you buy the valve with the extension nipple on it, as the nipple sticks out a fair bit, but the standard valve appears quite snug?

it isn't that hard to just undo the sump plug really, and by the looks of it there more of a chance that this will get hit than a normal plug.

Where it would be good I think is if you needed to do any oil analysis or sampling?

Yep, I do oil analysis at least once a week...so it'd be of great benefit to me!
