Anyone know of after market oil coolers for the MT

I did a search and nothing came up, I was wondering does anyone have any links or know of any after market oil coolers for the MT. Mine are beat up pretty bad and I was also looking for some that look a little nicer than the straight black, I know that may seem dumb but its going to be a show car so I was it clean a good looking.

Let me know fellas

Well I am not sure haha, I checked out racingbeats website and all they have is the oil cooler screens which i just bought so I guess I may have to call them???

Would I just be better off getting some new stock ones??

I wonder if the FEED/Re-Aimemya coolers are bigger/better than stock ones.

I know some MT models in Japan only has 1 cooler so ... these might be stock ones with color on ?

if/when you replace them, you should look into some screens to protect the coolers. Racing Beat has a set of screens that work quite well

A good question - I doubt they're just stock 'recolored' ones though.

The HKS ones are quite expensive as well. ~$600

I have the RB Screens I just bought them and now I am just trying to find a replacements for the old messed up ones.

To be honest I dont even know how much a stock oil cooler should cost so idk what is a high price or a low price. I was thinking about just going to the dealership but I am sure they would crush me with a price.....

look into summit racing, they have lots of options for coolers or you can get kits that add fans. i think race roots or fluid motorsports also has some options

no the RE Amemiya is much bigger, what is decieving about the pic below is that you are assuming that it fits the same orientation that the oe fit, this is not the case however, the RE's actually fit vertically,,,

Your right they;re muc larger, here is a ppic out of my Japanese tuners installation guide,,, the pic in the lower right hand cooler puts in perspective how large the Amemiya cooler is,,,, no again like nycgps commented on does this one cooler do the same load that the US specs shares with two coolers,,,, The guide only shows the installation of this one cooler,,,,

So if I ran just one cooler like the ones in Japan, I would be ok??

I was thinking about getting one of the larger ones to almost count as two.
(How much would the blue one above set me back?)

I do have an MT with two but how much harder is it to have just one line and one cooler??

The Feed/RE/HKS kist are a rip off. You can get pro quality stuff much cheaper.

I mean i would love to run one cooler, but idk how much it would effect the car. Plus I would love to pay around 200 or 300 bucks for either just one good one and hoses or two pretty good ones and hoses, and have it fit fine no major work.

It seems though they are all over priced and i cant find a good link to a decent product that dosent involve me taking a second loan to pay for them......soo idk what to do besides get crushed by the dealership getting new ones.....haha

I have 2 OEM ones, Driver and passenger side.

Shoot me a pm.

The other option is we have Oil Cooler Fans that you can optimize the single cooler you have.

It can be seen here: http://raceroots.com/index.php/produ...8/cooling.html
