Hi guys.
I bought Baz's low profile oil filter housing from his VR4 6 bolt engine as advertised here for $80 a few months ago: http://www.4gtuner.c...ge-sale-photos/
It's ported well to reduce oil pressure which is why I purchased it.
When I got it I just put it away and didnt realise until today that it doesnt suit my external oil cooler setup so I am unable to use it.
There were a few guys wanting this back then.
Looking to get my $$ back on it + post.

Plus a pic I took today today of the VR4 ported vs VR4 unported (attached).

It is an Aus spec housing so it doesn't have oil cooler lines on the back of it. It requires a relocation plate / sandwich plate to run to an oil cooler.
 
Baz used a sandwich plate with -AN connections to relocate the oil filter and oil cooler in series.
Its a nice low profile unit and gives more space for a big 3 or 4" dump pipe off the back of the turbo.
It doesnt come with the sandwich plate obviously, its just the unit itself.

My oil filter housing has the outlets for an oil cooler directly off the housing itself. As I already have my setup in place with over $200 worth of fittings and hoses and the oil temp and pressure sensors and wiring in place, I'm not keen to reinvent the wheel and change my setup again just to suit this new housing lol. With a sandwich plate on mine it does get close to the dump pipe but I've got 90 degree AN fittings to get the bend. See pics of my setup with the different housing and plumbing. To fit Baz's I'll have to change it and those special bend AN fittings arent cheap lol.
