Oil cooler options

[jake]

Just seeing what options I have for replacing the factory oil cooler and lines. Mines be dropped and dragged along the ground a number of times on and off the car trailer and looks pretty haggard. Pics of setups welcomed

I was limited with space behind the GTi front bar so ran a slimline cooler - basically the same core as a transmission cooler. It's wedged behind the support bar that the bonnet latch is attached to. Seems to be doing the job...

I got this one off eBay, seems to do the job.







It came with stainless braided hose but it wasn't bendy enough so I swapped it for normal oil hose as per the pics

I got some pics and info in this post that I originally did using PFE connections and red hose: http://www.4gtuner.com/topic/10127-evo00x-evolved-awd-coupe/?p=144406
Then a few years later pissed those connections and red hoses off and used Speedflow fittings and blue hoses here: http://www.4gtuner.com/topic/10127-evo00x-evolved-awd-coupe/?p=274233
and added fire sleeving to protect the lines from heat and a few more pics here: http://www.4gtuner.com/topic/10127-evo00x-evolved-awd-coupe/?p=275803
