We went back and forth with several design prototypes. Due to the very small frontal opening on the FR-S/BRZ, we ultimately chose this solution, since it would not be another obstruction to airflow to the radiator. Also, it keeps the oil lines nice and short (no worries about oil pressure drop).

This is just a prototype at this stage. The production version will utilize integrated brackets and custom molded silicone radiator hoses.

Wow, that was exactly what I was planning to put together! I guess I'll wait for this one instead.
