kbond Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 What oil coolers do people run and how have you plumbed them in? Last year was seeing high temps so may as well sort it whilst it's apart Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 take a look on my glanza build thread mine is from hel preformance. page 26 - 27 had to relocate oil filter because of turbo. cheers nick Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kbond Posted January 5, 2017 Author Share Posted January 5, 2017 Looks tidy Is there anyway of having less lines I.e thermostatic plate straight onto the filter housing and lines from there to a cooler? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TimD Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 As above, my sandwich plate and lines fouled the intake of my turbo so had to go to a remote setup. Ran a 16 row, but for the most part I had to keep it covered up to get any oil temperature. Going to look into this again once my engine is back in, possibly add a slightly smaller cooler and a thermostat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kbond Posted January 5, 2017 Author Share Posted January 5, 2017 This is my setup at the moment will be a few differences when back in but should make a difference Was looking around a 15 row with a thermostat plate.Is there anywhere that does full kits and you fit to suit or is it best to buy separately Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kbond Posted January 5, 2017 Author Share Posted January 5, 2017 Ok cheers bud Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flaminsam Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 This is my set up on my gt. I've never seen my oil temps go over 90 degrees with spirited driving. I've used the two redundant coolant lines from the standard ct9 to provide cooling to the oil cooler. The oil cooler came off a Toyota avensis. 👍🏻 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kbond Posted January 11, 2017 Author Share Posted January 11, 2017 Have you used it on track? Not sure that would cool it down enough Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bussey Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I used to hit 120+ on track,Now with a mishimoto 16row cooler and mocal 88c stat I never see over 90 Defo a must for hard driving, oil shouldn't struggle to get up to temp at all if you run a decent stat.

Flaminsam Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I've not used it on track but I've given it plenty of hammer. It must be better than nothing though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kbond Posted January 11, 2017 Author Share Posted January 11, 2017 I see 130+ at Combe!Bussey you got any pics of your setup? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
00joeindastarb0 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I've been considering one of these but recon I could run into the issue of there not being much room as people mention.https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331764941424 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
