Couple quick questions
Where is the oil cooler located?
Second, is there a pan under the radiator to push oncoming air into it? I was told there should be? This is what mines looks like.

wow...ummm unique color!
anyways, you need the underbelly tray...it doesn't push the air into it but prevents it from going around it. I would contact Ray Crowe (do a search) and order the part and bolts to put it in. Your car will run warmer without it...and we all know what heat does to our cars.
If your car is a base the oil cooler is in the smaller opening on the drivers side. The passenger side should be blocked off as no cooler is present. Dual coolers where only stock on the R1 models.

Anyway, it looks as if you have twin oil coolers, which would mean that either the previous owner upgraded a touring model to have twin oil coolers, or you have a touring model with the R2 option? I'm not sure what was available on the touring models after '93.

BTW, out of all the colors that FDs come in, red, black, silver, white, and yellow, why did you settle for magenta? Was the car damn cheap or something? BTW, whoever painted it did a **** poor job getting overspray all over the oil coolers.

I was going to buy the car and get it painted black, but the more I looked at it it kinda grew on me. I will still paint it black some day, but my money has been spent lately on upgrades. The car has a great paint job, they just oversprayed some ****. I got the car for $8000, 70K miles with goood compression, intake, Koyo Radiator. The car just had just been taken apart like hell.
