Oil cooler for FRS & suggestion for other mods?
Just got a '13 FRS and setting it up for some track duty. Can someone please suggest a good oil cooler for this car, and a reputable online vendor from whom I can order one from?
Also looking to get the obvious boltons for the car, so please suggest the popular mods excluding reflash. Looking for an exhaust (header worth doing?), intake, etc. How much power would that add? Stock rotors seem to be holding up fine since the car is light, so which aftermarket pad is recommend for the track? What are some nice (but reasonable) lightweight track wheels (Enkei?), and how wide can you go on the rubber and is a fender roll required? KW V3 coilovers are what most use for the track or is there something else out there that is better or works just about as well? Thanks in advance. Last edited by varun; 02-26-2014 at 10:32 PM. |

IMO this is the best oil cooler for a street car that isn't boosted:

Purchased the Full Blown oil cooler kit. It was a little more expensive but seems to be better, with more parts, and a complete kit with the option to upgrade later. Thanks for the alternative and suggestion.
Input on the other parts and mods suggestions anyone? |

I see you already purchased but I figured that it would hurt mentioning this.
You can make your own with Mocal components for $450.

Thanks.
What is the best intake for this car and what are the approx gains? On exhaust, I'm looking at the Tanabe or the Invidia. Are they both good for some gains or is one better than the other? Worth doing a header, and if so, brand? |

With the P&L headers, overpipe, front pipe, and catback exhaust (TRD exhaust), will this throw a CEL if I get the catless header, or is there an o2 sensor thats been relocated somewhere? |

Ft86 catted uel headers will not throw a cel. Almost all others will if don't do a tune and really in order to have any gains with all these exhaust mods you need a tune anyhow.

You really need a tune if you're considering a header, and should get a tune anyways. The biggest gains to be had, by far, is through a tune.
