I have a 1994 base model RX-7, however I it seems as though I have 2 oil coolers, one in each of the nose ducts. Is this possible? I don't think mine is an R-2 because I dont have a spoiler, or suede seats (I have black cloth) and mine is an automatic. I don't have the back wiper or sunroof though. If mine only had one oil cooler, which side would it be on?

It could be, but does the tranny cooler look exactly like the oil cooler?

automatic transmission cooler is integrated to the radiator right? thats why automatic radiators and manual radiators arent interchangable.

OK, so the tranny cooler looks exaclty like the oil cooler except it is in the left nose duct instead of the right?
