You get what you pay for.



That oil cooler is smaller than the stock one.



And has already been pointed out, no t-stat.



Plus those are some funky looking lines and connectors.



The ads claim 'top quality, no corners cut' but conveniently neglect to name the connector and hose manufacturers names.



Buying all the parts for a decent dual oil cooler setup for an FD is ~ $700.



If you don't want to spend the $$ on that, you could always buy a used stock driver side oil cooler and add it on the passenger side.



Howard Coleman has written up how to do this on rx7club.com for < $200, just search for it.
I have a 94 FD that was converted to 5 speed, the shop left my tranny cooler in the right side duct which I heard is pretty easy to convert to an oil cooler? has anyone else heard this?
