Oil cooler in an EG

[TypeG]

Anyone got one on the EG with a/c?
If so, where do you mount your cooler? what size is that? I just simply cant find a spot to fit the cooler in front without blocking the radiator and a/c fan

[OMG.JAI xD]

put it infront of the radiator.
Take your front bar off.
Make mounts on your front bar reinforcement .

Where the fans are on the radiator is the back of the radiator.
Just put the thought of an oil cooler like a front mount intercooler. A front mount intercooler isnt mounted in the engine bay.

im thinking about putting mine behind the fog light cover on the drivers side, my intake isnt there anymore so i figure thats the perfevt place as my fmic covers the whole front

As preference, I'd put it on the passenger side in front of the AC condenser/radiator. As said make brackets and just make sure its spaced away from touching anything.

technically tho, wouldnt having the shortest oil lines possible make it betteR?

ok so put in front of the a/c con? it would be better than putting it in front of the radiator right? as for the mount, what is the best way to DIY a mount?

[DLO01]

Yep, thats my thinking. Just make simple steel brackets, fold, bolt together. (disregard the perspex cover that you can see)

i have to do this to mine,

did you shim up that bolt in your sump so you didnt lose oil pressure dean?
and did you run a catch can?

u only really need an oil cooler if u are behind cars often and getting low airflow to the front of ur car ... like track situations

mate is a state rally champion and he took the cooler off his subaru because it just wasnt needed

hope this info helps

how useful an oil cooler is..... on a B18?
i have a 350z b4 and it required to cool down after few laps constantly and an oil cooler allowed me to get few more laps
