AT Transmission Cooler solutions?
Does anyone know if there's still any AT cooler kits available for 2017+ BRZ? I ordered the Stark Performance Kit but it seems like it was discontinued and the seller cancelled the order.

Long story short I had one, never installed and sold mine. I've never had any overheating problems with the transmission. Also, there is a limp mode the car will go into if the transmission overheats for any reason. Allowing you to safely pull over or drive into a safe area.
I instead went with an HKS oilcooler for my motor. I was frequently seeing 270/290 on the mountains and now I haven't seen anything above 220 in over year. Are you planning on tracking your car? If you are in need of a tranny cooler check out this thread where you can read some information on someone installing and running one. https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=69139 Also if it helps a buddy of mine running a turbo AT FRS regularly tracks his at Road Atlanta. He's had no need for one. cheers! |

I have an oil cooler waiting to be installed, it will be done in the next few weeks. This will be a dedicated track car that I'm going to build out over the next few years. Goal is to turbo it either next year or the year after that as I get more proficient in racing. That build thread was awesome! Thank you, I don't feel so old any more getting into road racing  You have a good point about the transmission cooler, I should really see what the temperature hits during track day to see if I actually need one. I'll hold off on the purchase for now and see how things go during peak summer temperatures. |
