I got mine from Promaz here in Melbourne, and I think it's the original Mazda OEM (if not MazdaSpeed).

OEM Mazda is very close of MazdaSpeed if not the same. Price should come down by about $100 now, since the GT now has the same oil cooler.

I got mine from Mazfix.

I also go a new radiator cap that holds a higher pressure. The theory is that the higher pressure increases the boiling point which means a more efficient cooling system.

Also check out onlinemazdaparts.com. They have the OEM US spec oil cooler, which is the same as Promaz.
