Oil change with oil cooler

tbonesteak · 01-19-2010, 10:15 PM

lolllll i thought of blowing the oil out of the cooler as well but thought you guys would think it's ridiculous and the idea would get shut down hard. But now that mod has said it, it is another option! You just need to cover the blow area with something clean and aim the other fitting down at the drain bucket and blow rite? HAHAHA this whole conversation is just funny.

Hmmm sounds easy enough. So is there a difference to installing the kit with the hoses on the bottom instead of the top? I remember reading something in one of the many oil cooler threads.

edit: Ok so I install the cooler, put 5 qts in, run the car for a min or so, then add an additional quart or until it reads full is that how you guys do it?

sounds about right, but you may not even need to wait a full minute. i've heard the VQ pump is a beast.

ok cool. Man I can't believe I started buying mods for the Z and I haven't even hit 1200 miles on it. Dam this crap is addicting. Apparently the fund for my modding my car told the fund towards buying a house to
