Mishimoto Oil Cooler w/ Thermostat - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

STOP READING - SOLD

Selling my Mishimoto Oil cooler that comes with the gold thermostatic sandwich plate. Despite negativity in the community, this oil cooler was great and did not leak. People often over-tighten the sandwich plates and crack the spacer - this one was installed correctly and has very little sign of use aside some oil hiding in passages (I tried to get it all out as best I could) and a few of the fittings have marring on the finishes because I don't have an aluminum wrench set.

Only issue with the kit is that the sensor wiring is very short. Certainly not unworkable, but you can but a new sensor if you want slightly longer wiring - they intend for you to extend them for your needs anyway. Or if you don't have an external temp gauge, ignore it.

Looking for $400 shipped CONUS

If some of you know my history, worry not - oil cooler was taken off for the recall work and did not ever go back on - this oil cooler did not see a spun bearing

Here's how it looks on the car. Subtle but cool!

Will this fit in the front with a turbo intercooler already mounted? I see some people have removed their front grill cover and wasn't sure if it was a clearance issue or not.

It will if you have an aftermarket crash bar. I've seen some people have it mounted in front of their turbo intercooler that way. I've personally mounted mine on the side, but had to use longer lines.

This really depends on the intercooler and how the charge pipes are connected as well. The mounting bracket and oil cooler can be separated, so it's not like it has to be mounted to the crash bar directly using the supplied bracket. I can tell you that with my huge FMIC it would end up behind the intercooler, but would still fit.
