So my Sport has a ZZ4 engine, I want to fit an oil cooler and a remote filter seems to be the way to do it:
1. Is the take-off plate a bolt-on affair ? Anyone got a pic of this area ?
2. what size oil ports/threads should I be looking for on: take-off plate, remoter filter housing, stat & cooler ?
3. do Ultima sell the oil cooler fixing brackets on their own (i.e. not as part of a kit), and for what size cooler ?
4. is it a 25 row 23mm wide cooler

cheers
Roger

Roger,

maybe you can use some of my bits that I'm replacing :-), which include the factory oil cooler & fan... this has -12 fittings I think.

I'm fitting a remote filter, new water plumbed oil cooler (& proportioning valve)...

Since you're in EA, drop us a offliner if you want to see the factory installed setup & the new bits I have (I'm still waiting on a few items)...

I ordered some bits direct from the states, but the remote filter I got via a UK distrib...

Cheers,
Pete

I think the "Factory" spec is -10 jic, the cooler is a 25 row which is fine, but, I do think you should run an oil stat for road use, oil takes longer than you might think to get to non damaging temps! Mocal supply most of the stuff!
