i got a similar one with a hayden ps cooler i got off ebay. It looks fine in terms of working, but i haven't tried it since i don't really have any use for it, as i get my readings from the turbo lines.

So if you want it, i'll let it go for half the price of the one in the auction i can check if the mazda filter will work fine with it and take some pics of it tomorrow.

that sound great.
also i run a escort gt, with a gtx swap and now im finishing up my t3/t4 set-up with a fliped miata manny ect. i was woundering what is the size of your rad. im running out of space and i have a festiva rad mocked up but don't know if it will cool enough trying to think of other ideas , also were did you get your rad. made at and what was the price. I'm going to a local rad. shop tommorow to see what they can offer me.
thanks

lol, the ebay listing said it was "ultra trick"

thats kinda like the OEM one that comes on the GTX's, except its made of metal.

as for the radiator - i'm using a howe #342BM with custom end tanks. Custom, because the actual #342BM comes with no filler neck - that's what i got the first time i ordered, but howe people were nice enough to correct the problem (was their fault) by getting me a custom one made with the same size core and regular end tanks.

[ryan1]

did you get a chance to see if it will clear the stock bp oil cooler.
thanks

eeewwww fram filter...

j/k.....


looks good dood. But why are there 4 holes? cooler, and turbo lines I guess?

[Kreator]

well the thing i used is a piece from an oil relocation kit to show what it will look. The 4 holes are: two are on the sandwich for ps cooler (or sensors), two are for the lines that come from the block outlet.

i got all that together (the relocation kit, the ps cooler and the adapter) and the plan was to run ps cooler on the escort, relocate the filter on the 240sx so i could run 2 gauges off of the relocation lines. The adapter was never part of the grandeur scheme, so i have no use for it.

As for whether it clears or not.... it's about 1.75" (a little less actually) thick. I glanced underneath the car today - seems like it'd fit.

D323: whats wrong with fram?

frams are notorious for exploding and suddenly draining your engine of oil, which is a Very Bad Thing (TM)
