    Ah yeah they are a remote setup, then you could just use RX7 cooler or something. If it's a street car I would probably use a thermostat but for mine I am not going to bother.

    The question now is are you going to buy that exact one, haha. I was just about to but I thought I would ask, haha.

    Yeah looked up what they're worth new and $600 so the $58 postage is fine, haha. Now I can just use a basic oil cooler and not have to worry about getting braided lines and speedflow fittings to suit, not worried about how it all looks as long as it works, haha.

    All good man.
    That Greddy remote, listed as universal, uses 4A filters
    I just been researching filters, HKS 52009-AK002 does a variety of engines including 4A, so I went with one
    I'm just going to use the non thermostat 4A GREX / PWR cooler setup I have for now, and switch over to remote when it arrives.

    Ah yeah, that should work perfect on mine, can still use a genuine filter and have an oil cooler. Like having my cake and eating it too, haha.

Need to buy a car trailer once I sell this other T18 but would like to get another track hack but I know then ill just get rid of it when this one is done so just avoid it, haha.

    Oil filter block is a pain, the CRS adapter takes -8 O'ring fittings...
    So I got 2 5/8 screw type fittings, they went on side by side, pretty close...... too close, the 5/8 male fitting that screw on to them, foul on each other....
    Back to the drawing board, will have to step it down to 1/2"

    Dropped in a pair of re-trimmed Surf Recaro's...Pic's up soon..

    Have hit a serious snag.
    The fiance's Camry, the daily whilst the ute being build has had total engine failure.
    Not worth the monies to fix, time to upgrade.
    Have been given an ultimatum, Ute or Pano...So devo
    Not giving up on the Pano, its a hard decission, but looks like the ute will be moved on....

    Will be replaced with a Celsior so I can keep the engine...
