Zoeb, have you considered a Fumoto Oil Drain Valve? I can't use one on my 02 WRX because I have the factory oil temp gauge and the sender fits in the drain plug hole. My brother has used them for years and hasn't had problems with leaks. He picked his up at either a Pep Boys or NAPA, but I listed Fumoto's .url below.

Oil changes are easier and quicker, as you only have to wrench on the filter. Fumoto valves are also offered with a short nipple that can take a length of hose to facilitate draining of oil.
