Perrin Oil Cooler -Prototype, Installed today! - Page 5 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

showbe · 09-19-2012, 01:51 AM

Sort of new to this and was wondering what the purpose of an Oil Cooler will do for the FR-S. Is this for people who track their cars or will this benefit people who just like to build cars and track it once a year? And why is their a need to add more oil if you have it installed?

Thanks

How much for just the spacer under the sandwich plate? Or the spacer + plate. I'm kind of a DIY guy, and cheap, so I'd rather use the much cheaper Long/Trucool coolers and some Aeroquip/Earls fittings.

WHAT if you need this and you already have an intercooler taking up 100% of that space where your oil cooler currently resides?

I'll wait patiently

Sounds great man. If I could keep my turbo oil temps below 220F (running it hard) I'd be a happy camper.

Though I'm still used to my 370Z always hitting limp mode during drift/track sessions when it reached 280F.......

A normal day for that car was 215F on a commuter route.

Maybe something similar to this:

Especially if you could mount it behind the where the fog light would go on the bumper and fab up a piece to replace that grill so air can get to the oil cooler.

Man my front bumper is going to get worked real hard.

Mocal Part #SP1FT with 20 mm thread with base air box or similar
Mocal Part #SP1TM18 with 20mm thread with Airaid intake
I haven't found the spacer by itself yet, I'm searching

I forgot to mention this before, we will to include clamps with our production oil coolers. They will be available soon, should be within the next month or so.

tonystewart · 09-25-2012, 11:07 PM

Any updates on the oil cooler?

PERRIN_Chris · 10-01-2012, 02:24 PM

I will post in here when the production kit is ready! Sorry for the delay guys.

post_break · 10-18-2012, 03:32 PM

Update? It's been a long time.

PERRIN_Chris · 10-19-2012, 05:06 PM

They are getting closer! Still doing more testing.

All you gotta do is trash talk Perrins competitors and give no constructive criticism.
