hey guys yeah as the title asks.. i'm in the middle of quite a long build. just wondering whether it's worth getting an oil cooler for an na 4age?? any real benefits at all as the oil needs to be at a certain temp anyway... if i can get quite a large one is it worth it??

if your thrashing the motor, the oil will rise above required temperatures. Hence, an oil cooler is used. If its for street and you dont think you'll be doing alot of high revs for long periods of time, then dont bother. But if you can get it really cheap, they look cool and increase your oil capacity...
