Oil Cooler - Street Legal?

[xanavinismo]

Hi all,

I finally have to transfer rego for my R34 GT-R over to the ACT (from Sydney) and so I have to get the car inspected/passed. The only mods I have on the car is a surprisingly quite cat back Apexi N1 Evolution exhaust and (my biggest worry) a Trust Oil Cooler Kit with Oil Filter Re-locator.

Are those oil coolers (with the Re-locator & braided Teflon lines) able to pass rego or will I have to get an engineering certificate to pass?

Cheers,

Could not see a reason the oil cooler is not legal. No EPA issues. Just needs to be secure and not leaking.

[xanavinismo]

Yeah its definitely secure and no leaks. So hopefully it passes with no dramas.

Cheers,

Mine passed rego many years ago with the same exhaust.

Good luck!

[xanavinismo]

Thanks, yeah I figured the exhaust would be okay. Just that braided brake lines are illegal.... so just got me paranoid that maybe the braided oil lines would be the same?

We shall find out soon...

Hmm - braided brake lines should be ok if they're the ADR approved type.

Why on earth would braided lines be illegal?

[GTRKat]

Why are half the things we do to our cars "illegal"...

As Richard says, if they are ADR approved ones they should be fine.

have an oil cooler, myself and it's never been an issue with rego, or when the car was defected.
