Default Oil Cooler

Is anyone running one? I was thinking about getting one, but not sure if it is worth the 100 of so bucks. The cooler is easy to get but does any one know where to get the block adaptors for cheap? Or what thread to use. I have one adaptr but don't know if it fits. It is from my dads relocation kit.

My zc has one. But I want external. All it is, is a 1-2" thick spacer that has engine coolant running through it.

You can get one from summit racing for about $25, the "golden eagle" one should be made of gold for as much as it cost...

I got my oil cooler for like $20. $100 is way too much.

Just pipe that hot oil thru the radiator (assuming you have a manual transmission car) where the automatic fluid cooler would be at.

i used one from a '86-89 integra on my A6 without problems, and the proper filter still works fine.
