Cheap Oil cooler?!? from ebay???
 

OK hey everyone sooo im aware that our z's have problem with our oil temps... mine reaches 220 somtimes and i try and drive slower soooo it wont get any hotter... anyways i really wanna get an oil cooler and i was wondering if this oil cooler was any good or is it junk?

18 Row Oil Cooler Kit 240SX S13 S14 300ZX 350Z 370Z G35:eBay Motors (item 290314763142 end time May-10-09 16:47:50 PDT)

because if it is... then ill just get the stillen one... the only thing that gets me about it.... is that the core kinda looks small dont u think? on top of that if this cheap oil cooler works... imma get my self gen3 intakes with the cash i saved on the coolers and that will indeed make me a happy camper :happydance:

P.S i jus added royal purple radiator additive... it said it would make a tiny difference so i thought it was a start since im not running a oil cooler yet.

since no one replyed...
 

im guessing its a piece of junk then lol sigh no one even commented me back... aiight then... nvm on with the stillen then:rofl2:

Well ive had bad experiences with cheap ebay products on my 350Z...yeah alot of the times they work...but they were never durable...To tell you the truth an oil cooler is a big deal...if a line blows, if the core leaks...your engine will be toast.

Don't buy a cheap oil cooler, it could get very expensive if there is a leak. An engine replacement is $9000!

+1 don't be stupid, get a real unit.

Its 10X better to stretch a little and put quality stuff on your car, than to put a lot of crappy stuff. You will know, people will know and it will reflect on the longevity and performance of your car.

This would have been great as a poll.

I agree with the above comments. I can see a cheap intake or something like that. BUT anything that could fail and result in instant engine death I would steer clear of.

a crappy intake can also blow you up.

Thanks for the feedback
 

Ok... lol ill get a more reputable oil cooler... now my next question is... which oil cooler has the BIGGEST cooling capability? would that be the stillen one or the other one? i forgot the name starts with an S it costs like 800 :eek:i think i saw it on this forum some where...

The oil cooler is critical for the engines life blood. Don't cheap out, real coolers like setrab and real AN fittings from repuatble companies like earls or aeroquip only.
