Installing a Koyo in a S5 with Auto Transmission
Has anyone installed a Koyo radiator in a 2nd Gen with an auto transmission? I know you will need a transmission oil cooler to route the fluid lines to, but what size cooler and mounting location will work?

The stock cooler is a water to oil cooler that sits in the radiator. Pretty cheesy, and I would always upgrade my customers' oil coolers if they ever got their slushboxes replaced or rebuilt. You don't need a monster one, just a regular transmission cooler from the parts store would already be better than trying to "cool" the trans fluid with 185 degree water across some copper tubes. Just mount it to the front of the radiator. It should come with a mount kit.

I have used this one, not on an RX7 but in other projects to replace an oem cooler:
Hayden Fluid Coolers 679 - SummitRacing.com
OR, you could go to a salvage yard and pick one off of any half or 3/4 ton pickup or panel van. Panel Van's are thick in salvage yards.
