You could disconnect the water pump bypass hose from the BRZ water pipe, run it up to the oil cooler, then run the oil cooler outlet down to the BRZ water pipe.

Come install it on mine!

Tye300 · 11-01-2013, 02:26 PM

Do you have logs of oil temps? At what temps do the oil stabilizes at?

Superhatch · 11-01-2013, 02:32 PM

Ok, everything on order. Ill update once I get it installed.

Thanks again!

In for results.

Be awesome if this works better than the ej25 implementation.

I like it but might prefer to have the cooler after the radiator, I'll have to take a look at mine and see if that is even possible

The coolant throughout the system is regulated to ~195 degrees so ya its more about pressure. Plus we are trying to replicate the turbos routing as close to factory as possible.

But ya as carnz mentioned, you could put the cooler routed before the heater core or before the ATF cooler on the AT cars if you want.

I ordered everything as well. Thank you OP for the information and writeup.

Got some interest from people for the "Oil Cooler Bundle", should be placing the first orders Monday with the parts shipping Thursday.

Kostamojen · 11-02-2013, 12:27 AM

Hopefully we don't exhaust the supply of these oil coolers... LOL!

niceguy21 · 11-02-2013, 12:42 AM

I'm definitely interested in buying a bundle too and I was also wondering if anyone else is going to try this would it be possible to make a video. I know the instructions are pretty straight forward, but a vid would helpful too. I'm not too mechanic savvy however it would be greatly appreciated

And if anyone could post pics for what they did differently on an auto, that'd be A+. It sounds like a simple change to the instructions, but I'd rather have pictures in front of me when I set out to do this.

akyp · 11-02-2013, 04:17 AM

Would this be any different with RHD cars?
