N1GTR Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Guys This is a group buy for filter relocation kits that can also be ordered with oil coolers and thermostats if required Start date: 5/7/06 End date: 24/11/06 This kit enables you to do oil changes MUCH easier on RB motors by moving the oil filter to a spot of your choosing The kits also fit SR20, FJ20 and CA18 motors for those of you with Silvias, DR30's etc etc These kits are supplied from Melbourne (but made in USA), and all prices are delivered to your door Heres a pic..... For those that havnt seen these before, they replace the filter on the side of the block, and have lines running towards a mountable filter location, so they can be mounted on the strut tower, or where ever you would like them to be Also ive been able to source dual filter kits, so at filter change time, you simply buy 2 filters and run them both - doubling your oil filtration If using the genuine ones from places like justjap, your oil change would be only around $10 more Oil cooler cores can be added also, a must for track cars, see below for pricing, and there is a pic below They are a hard type core deisgn. Meaning the fins dont bend if hit by stones etc flung up from the road. The fins are angled to flow air through the core most efficiently. The air is forced to flow through the hole core, unlike some where the air passes around and over, the only core on the market like that. Core size 21cm high. 28.5cm wide, 3.5cm thick Mounting brackets 25.5cm high 26cm wide Thermostats can be added if required. When oil temperature exceeds 82°C the thermostatic valve closes, allowing 95% flow through the oil cooler. At temperatures below 82°C the valve is open, with 90% of the oil by-passing the cooler. The remaining 10% of the oil flows through the cooler, maintaining constant system pressure, preventing air pockets and eliminating cold oil shock. Flows up to 20 gallons per minute. Rated to 200 PSI. This means your setup will be the same as the big name Japanese brands (names like HKS include a thermostat). Kits include everything needed to install to your car Delivery time is 4-5 days from time of deposit Post up interest here and i will PM you direct deposit bank details Prices: Single filter kit, delivered $140 Dual filter kit, delivered $165 K&N filter to suit is $15 (all Nissan filters will fit the kits though) B&M cooler core, delivered $130 Thermostat, delivered $120 To be in on the buy, simply post up here and ill PM you the payment details, or PM me - either way Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/124844-thermostatic-cooler-kits-singledual-filter-relocation-kits/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

N1GTR Posted July 4, 2006 Author Share Posted July 4, 2006 If you intend on doing more track work you really do need an oil cooler It figures out to be a little bit more than the justjap ones, BUT includes a thermostat for those cold days/nights Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/124844-thermostatic-cooler-kits-singledual-filter-relocation-kits/#findComment-2304571 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bliksem Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Damn, that oil cooler is nice and big. Also like the fact that it doesnt bend from stones hitting it etc. I won't be in on this group buy (no $$$ ), but is there a chance that this may be running again?

satanic Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 I've just had a talk with the mechanics and this is definitely going to be purchased instead of the JJ cooler kit. Just the mention of B&M put a smile on their faces. I'll be in on this group buy but closer to the next track day in October.

N1GTR Posted July 5, 2006 Author Share Posted July 5, 2006 also guys. Running NO thermostat will mean there is HUGE strain on the oil pump when the oil is cold. meaning long trips on the freeway, and in the mornings it will kill the oil pump fast. and hope thats before the bearings die from thick cold oil hitting them=costly rebuilding...also cheap 19row oil coolers are JUNK. i have seen countless amounts of them split under pressure. blowing apart and dumping oil all over the road, and leaving NO oil pressure for the motor. so here we come motor rebuild Correct Thats why this is a good core, not one of the cheap ones out there Damn, that oil cooler is nice and big. Also like the fact that it doesnt bend from stones hitting it etc.I won't be in on this group buy (no $$$ ), but is there a chance that this may be running again? It may be extended (just like the Sydney Window Tint group buy that Blitz organized) at the end, but there is a long time between start and finish mate I've just had a talk with the mechanics and this is definitely going to be purchased instead of the JJ cooler kit. Just the mention of B&M put a smile on their faces.I'll be in on this group buy but closer to the next track day in October. Ok, just let me know and ill send it out oooo so tempting but no cash, ill see what i can do Yeah, i figured this may be the case for some people, so i made it a very long timeframe Is the end date 1/12/06 correct ? If it is im def getting one when my money start flowing again Also how do the 'non-braided' hoses go for reliability ? The hose is made by Goodyear, and is 5-6mm thick, and 3 layers - you wont have any issues And order today, you will get it very soon, theres no waiting until the end of the group buy to get your purchase whats the diff/advantages of a dual compared to a single filter kit? With 2 filters you double the amount of filtration of your oil, disadvantages? each oil change costs an extra $10 for 2 filters instead of one Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/124844-thermostatic-cooler-kits-singledual-filter-relocation-kits/#findComment-2306731 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I measured out before and thought WOW. It is about the size of an A4 sheet of paper! Had a look at the B&M website. Are you able to get the smaller 'high performance' oil coolers or is it only these ones? Just don't think I need something THAT big.
