mmm

braided lines? is it quality?

[anastasios]

my brother used rubber lines with an oil cooler that came off an ae82 twincam

[gunbz-r]

be very careful with that ebay stuff, some of those china braided lines are crap, they don't like the heat nor the pressure.

Mines all braided and works a treat... i would reccomend anyone to use the type i bought.. been through thrashing/dragging/skids and al has the oil relocator ports for mech gauges

[stefan]

i would use the ae82 oil cooler but what to do bout sandwitch plate etc?
coz i don't have the oil return to the sump

[narchi]

as a possibility ... GZE sandwhich plate and GZE sump (has return) ..... only downside with that is that its 'low pressure', so it really doesn't cool all that much oil very quickly

or if you can take off the sump, get someone to weld a bung on, 10 minute job, then just use an EARL's/ebay sandwhich plate, easy!



i must say thankyou to reecegze, if i didnt check this i wouldn't have looked on ebay and found one going for dirt cheap, winner :2thumbs:

No problems !! you got the link to the one you bought curious might be same as mine.. You gonna front mount yours ?

I had a Just Jap kit and had problems with the core separting and leaking, I also had sandwich

plate issues aswell, This was from about 3 years back so I think there design may have improved.

I am a big fan of not using a relocator unless it is a bastard to get to ie, SR20 as they are a hassle

to mount well and the braided line they provide in the kits is always way too long.
