Waiting on their brackets and then I will be running skunk2's/kw's Beta version oil cooler. They said the production version should be available for purchase in 6 to 8 weeks last I spoke to the guys at Group A.

Sure doesn't seem to be that much space for the oil cooler there.

My ride is extremely harsh/stiff 10k/11k spring rates and dampening near max stiff to daily lol.(have mine also mounted offset to the passenger side).

Anyone foresee any issues that would arise from this? So far with about 1300 miles on the setup everything seems fine.

I mounted mine from the top as well. It seems more secure imo.

If the aluminum overflow part on the block can go infinitely vertical without hitting that pulley the forester oil cooler will fit just fine. Sure it will be close, but it will fit.

I want to see a pic from someone who has the kit installed from directly above the oil filter. Only way to find out.

I need a pic from directly above. The forester plate has a lip like the engine. Want to see if it will clear. Your plate has no lip so it fits just fine.

Car is at the tuners right now. If he can i will have him get a pic or it might be a day or two.

ETA on toothed pulleys? I'd like to install this kit before next track day... @KraftWerks

Just install it. Swapping the pulleys takes 15 minutes
