lol will see if anyone has a diff kicking about with the cooler

As far as i know it's just like a little heat exchanger, with one end in the oil and the other out in atmosphere.. sure someone called it a cooling tower at one point.. Assuming the diff cases are the same worldwide and have a blanking plate where the cooler would be, i'd guess it'd be just a bolt in item?

Cheers,

Bryan

Bryan: Nope our cases don't have a plate at all so I guess it's Case specific!

I had guessed it was some sort of heat pipe arrangement
(wonder if it makes a difference I've cooked the pinion bearings in 2 diffs running at high speeds now)

bryan welcome to the nut house

at least that confirms my suspision that it was on uk turbo cars only so thanks for that bryan ian gonna cost bucks to ship allan a diff over lol:biglaugh:

 

[IJ.]

Steve: LOL pass I have the Pump and Setrab Cooler for the 9"

 

[group a supra]

i meant for allan ian


today
so far doh spent $600 on tools just a new topbox (bigger ) and some sockets :naughty:

next job is to order my burns muffler

 

[IJ.]

If my Cooler idea works out I'd say Allan will do much the same Steve.

Can't understand why our Mk3's didn't get the coolers though.

 

[group a supra]

what another 9" or just the cooler and pump

 

[IJ.]

Cooler and pump.

 

[group a supra]

i was thinkin of putting a mocal cooler on mine ian

 

[IJ.]

Seatrabs are a really nice piece and used on a lot of our Bathurst race cars. (When a cooler comes with a serial number on a data tag you know it's not Chinese scrap metal)

Hmm, your oil thermo is set to 215...
Isn't that a bit warm, I've always figgured 180 was the "magic" temp for fluids...

180 bit low for oil in my eyes 215 is 100c dead and well for oil 90-100c i always thought was a good operating temp 110+ well getting a bit warm chances are it wont get that warm all the time

reason

different car i know but my mother has a volvo 440 turbo now that runs about 80-90c oil temp on general runs but sit it at120mph for a while oil temp runs 99-101c all the time and thats a standard er well slightly modded car

chance are jake it will only get to the cooler when it is havin a caining and once going round it proabaly wont get any hotter but it is somethin i will monitor when up and running and if i feel a threat i will make changes accordingly

but i do appreciate your concern best pal :icon_bigg

 

[group a supra]

[IHI-RHC7]

You're hacking your header and rewelding!

 

[yannis-supras]

Nice!!! Good stuff man, good to see you're doing some progress again. Couple of questions on your new gear; did you buy your TRD oil filter locally in the U.K. and how much was that?

Also how come you went for the Canton oil thermostat and not for a good ol' britt mocal unit that is like 3 times cheapper? Any particular reason? I now there must be something...:naughty:
