Greddy oil filter relocator + oil cooler = 420806380689$

Ebay:

Nascar style oil cooler: 30$
SS lines : shop around, not much
Oil filter relocator kit W thermostat built in: 75$

yeah but ive heard some pretty bad stuff about ppl getting ebay oilcoolers, and more so about relocation kits..

read the 240sxforums DIY oil cooler thread. its like a yr or two old but i think there were some good points made about why not to buy an ebay kit or what u need in addition to an ebay kit.

i think takamotorsports sells a reasonably priced kit...if i recall correct.

Funny I've heard nothing but good things about it.

Certainly beats paying the HILARIOUS price of the greddy kit.

Greddy oil relocation kits suck ball sack.

Hose barbs can stay far far away from anything that involves catastrophic motor failure when they break.

The Greddy oil coolers suck ass too. the Denso heat exchanger design is 100% based around being cheap.

That being said, you'll only have to start worring about air in your cooler if for some god forsaken reason your using a filter cheap enough to not have a drainback valve. the air should clear out reguardless of weather it has to flow down or not once the oil starts flowing.
