INTRODUCING: FDNewbie Imports/Intransigent Design Dual Oil Cooler Kit!
 

Tired of the puny stocker oil cooler? Feeling uneasy seeing oil temps on the high side? Or are you a track junky in search for THE MOTHER of all dual oil cooler kits, but haven’t found what you’re looking for yet? Well look no further…THIS IS THE DUAL OIL COOLER KIT FOR YOU.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
So what makes the FDNewbie Imports/Intransigent (Auto) Design oil cooler all that & a bucket of fries? :D<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
- <!--[if !supportLists]--><!--[endif]-->Our kit utilizes only the HIGHEST QUALITY cores of your choice: black Setrabs for the no-nonsense stealth look, or brilliant silver Mocals for function with style!<o:p></o:p>

- <!--[if !supportLists]--><!--[endif]-->While the OEM oil coolers measure a mere 5.25” X 8” X 1.875,” our cores measure 7.5” X 13” X 2”, with large 25 (yes you read that right, twenty five) row cores, giving you more than enough in size, surface area, & capacity for your serious roadracing needs. This means better cooling with a larger oil capacity to give you more consistently cool oil temps!<o:p></o:p>

- <!--[if !supportLists]--><!--[endif]-->Tried & true Mocal 180 degrees oil thermostat<o:p></o:p>

- <!--[if !supportLists]--><!--[endif]-->Aluminum mounting brackets for oil coolers and thermostat<o:p></o:p>

- <!--[if !supportLists]--><!--[endif]-->Stainless steel mounting hardware included!<o:p></o:p>

- <!--[if !supportLists]--><!--[endif]-->All pre-made and pressure tested push-loc style fittings & lines from the coolers to the front cover and oil pedestal are included. Stainless steel braided lines are optional for a minor fee.<o:p></o:p>
<!--[if !supportLists]-->***<!--[endif]-->Why don’t we include stainless steel braided lines in our kit by default? Because your safety is our #1 Priority! While stainless steel braiding protects the lines, the braiding conceals the condition of the line from your view, effectively hiding any deterioration in the line that may be present! Thus, to be safe, these lines must be changed regularly, and hence must be requested by the customer specifically. These lines must also be securely fastened away from any other lines or parts around them, as they will abrade away at anything they are left to make contact with over a prolonged period of time!***<o:p></o:p>

- <!--[if !supportLists]--><!--[endif]-->Test fitted for both the 1993 – 1998 OEM bumper and 1999+ style OEM & aftermarket bumpers utilizing the 1999+ OEM combination lights!<o:p></o:p>

- <!--[if !supportLists]--><!--[endif]-->Direct bolt-on, with no fabrication or custom work necessary!<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
And as if that wasn’t enough, our kit is 100% *GENUINE* JDM (…or at minimum, JDM-junkies have put together the kits with their own bare hands haha) ;)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>

This is a thread for gathering interest. The hoses will also be sent with oetiker clamps on the hose ends to provide a more secure seal.

those will look great behind my GTC bumper

eventually...

That looks great, Ramy.

Any pictures with the bumper cover installed yet?

Are you still going to offer this kit with shiney cores?

Damn you Ramy. I thought this was a genuine offer. That thing is sick. Build it, offer it, I'll buy it.

If by shiny you mean silver, then yes it will be a no cost difference alternative (gotta double check). I'm almost positive the silver cores and black cores are the same price, if not then it will only be a few dollars difference. Stokexiv and I have done the R&D and construction on this kit, so if you have any technical questions we should be able to answer them for you.
We're gonna try to get some pictures of the coolers behind the front bumper tomorrow while we're continuing the v-mount quest :)

-Dan

you guys are keeping me in poverty... :icon_tup:

thank you so much. :)

This thing will work with an LS7 right?......Just kidding

:D I just want something to match my FMIC.

Because my car's so astetically pleasing :lol:

I can't wait for prices to be announced!

haha, as long as I'm not too busy monday I should have a price worked out. So you're looking for a polished oil cooler? I've never seen a polished oil cooler before.

Silver will do just fine :)

Will it work with a 20b

We can make one to work with the 20b, the only difference will be a shorter line from the front cover and a longer line from the oil pedistal....unless you're running a dry sump. I'm sure we can work something out for you though.

-Dan

can you also give a price for the kit without the lines? just the fittings, coolers, and instructions? i can get the line for free, so if its possible that would be cool!

Sounds good but will it be available for awhile? I was planning on an oil cooler upgrade with my rebuild and thats a ways off.

Looks great guys!

im definitly interested!

looks awsome!! :icon_tup: now i just need the price... :p:

Link,
I'm working on it!!! I should have the prices worked out by tomorrow, sorry for the hold up :)

-Dan

Looks great---you need to make this available quick! Two questions though:
1) What does the thermostat bracket bolt to (hard to tell from the pictures)?
2) Is there still clearance for the cross support (for those of us that still use it for battery support)?

Your kit
 

From the looks of the pics it seems as though a radiator wouldn't be able to seat on their resting brackets at the bottom of the engine bay because of how high the feed and return lines are. The close-ups on the otherhand look like it would work. Nice kit... hope it's a good price.


D-

1) It bolts to the steering rack mounting point
2) yes you can retain the factory cross support, it doesn't come anywhere near it.

We fitted this kit with the factory radiator and our v-mount radiator it clears both :)

Looks good! What do you have planned for the ductwork that will be necessary to use these coolers properly?

I am very interested in this kit.

The coolers are WAY larger then the inlet on the stock bumper and almost sit against the opening. I honestly doubt you'll have any problems with efficiency...but we plan on offering ducting in the future.

-Dan

lets hear a nice price :)

Damn guys, kit looks freakin' amazing :icon_tup:

Alright it looks like I've got it figured out. Just waiting for Ramy to give the go ahead to start placing orders....I'll let Ramy post the pricing tomorrow. SORRY for the hold up! :) But we may do an initial offering group buy so the wait may be worth it.

-Dan

Is a single cooler kit planned?

Is there such a thing as too cool?

yeah mine would be for a 20b as well, although i have a re-speed oil filter pedestal with a -6an welded bung (if i remember the size correctly). also, are 25 row coolers really necessary? i was under the impression that dual 19 row mocals were more than enough. i guess if the space is there why not, but i cant see how i could ever heat up 50 rows of oil cooler lol. also wouldnt you trap more dirt oil between oil changes than with smaller coolers? and id think the 19's are cheaper. anyway the kit looks awesome, and ill most likely be buying a set. -Heath :biggrin:

Hahahaha...NO. You are officially banned from all our sales LOL.

I sure hope so! We aren't planning on goin anywhere ;)

Airdam entrance ---> I| <--- Oil cooler haha.

So really, there's no need for ducting in this specific case. But in the pursuit of perfection (lol), I am designing my own (much better functioning and fitting) version of the OEM oil cooler ducts! :)

Why? I figured you'd have realized after owning an FD that two are better than one :D (Can you tell I'm a HARDCORE twins fan?! haha)

Of course there is. There is an optimal temp range for which you should be operating under. Too hot OR too cold is a bad idea. But you won't need to worry about either with this setup ;)

Not a prob. I'm sure we can make sure a 20B-specific kit is available ;)

Totally depends on your use. Besides, our philosophy is to over-engineer so you're using something that is EXCEEDS your needs/purposes, rather than making something that'll just "work."

Sounds good! :bigthumb:

Oh and the original post has been edited to include pricing :)

Thanks!
~Ramy

The RE-speed pedestal uses a -10 AN male fitting or a Banjo style fitting, our kit utilizes a -10 AN banjo fitting. I'm sure we could substitute the banjo fitting for a -10 120 degree fitting. You could think of it as holding more dirty oil, or you could say it holds more oil so you can go longer between changes :) With that turbo 20b of yours I think you might be able to make the system work a little.

-Dan

looks awesome. im spending my tax return on this hopefully :D

As I PMed Scrub, I have another purpose earmarked for the passenger side vent. :D Was actually going to piece together a single 34 row kit myself (probably would only work for me, since I don't have the flip ups anymore and I will not be installing the combo lights), but a 25 row should suffice, since the only heat my FD generates is once a weekend, terrorizing the neighborhood kiddies. :)

hey quick question, can anyone comment on the fitment of the 99 fogs with this kit? they seem like they may hit each other. i know theyre gonna cut down on air flow defeating some of this extra cooling potential, but its a fine balance between performance and aesthetics... and aesthetics might win this round. hopefully they can coexist peacefully (like humans and fish as our president so poignantly put it :biggrin: )
http://www.srmotorsports.com/99frntb.jpg

good question....I'm not sure. Are the lights recessed in the bumper, or are they sitting flush with it? On the stock 93-95 fog lights I'm almost positive they sit flush with the oil cooler opening from the rear ( I hope that makes sense)

-Dan

We're also developing a single 25 row oil cooler for those who don't want to spend as much or guys who have auto's.

-Dan

How much for just the coolers, with the mounting brackets and a thermostat, no fittings, or lines? A price for each type would be great. Thanks!

Interested.
Think I could have one in my hands by June?

-s-

Sorry we don't offer a DIY kit.
-Dan

Scott,
The single kit will be available when the dual kit is released, which will be within the next few weeks. :)

for everyone interested in seeing how the lines are routed with the radiator in....heeeeeeeeere ya go! The lines clear the cross brace nicely and in that picture the AC compressor is not bolted to the PS tensioner, so it doesn't look right.

http://cabaynes.com//files/Oil/IMG_0340.JPG

honestly im not sure. i just got them from ramy and havent installed them. hed be a better candidate to answer that question. they definitely have some depth and a mounting bracket that extends backwards and up a bit, but i cant say whether they extend rearwards past the plastic bumper skin. im sure ramy will know. id like to buy this kit, but thats my main hangup at the moment
-heath

That's great news. Will the kit retain the OEM banjo bolt on the oil filter pedestal? I'd like to measure oil temps before & after, and was planning to install an oil temperature probe as outlined on clubrx:
http://www.clubrx.org/default.asp?id...ntent=51&mnu=5

If this won't work with the new setup, is there another location you'd recommend? I'd like to be able to use the same sensor with both setups if possible.

-s-

Scotty, The kit will retain the OEM banjo bolt and your method will work just fine. We are working on offering a CNC'd oil pedestal with additional fittings for temp/pressure sensors, but will not impede the flow of oil.

Heath, if I could get a picture of the bumper uninstalled with the lights mounted I would be able to see if it would fit.

I am super interested. I want the black cored with the braided lines. What kind of time frame are we looking at?

Just to clarify, will those of us with touring editions need anything extra to get the 2nd(passenger's) oil cooler hook'd up?

cash money, we will be organizing a group buy in the next week or so. Once the group buy is started we'll need 10 orders to get the discounted pricing.

00spec - You will not need anything extra to hook up our kit, everything you will need is included. :)

-Dan

I'm in for group buy when ready.

If I needed it now (received by March 31st, the latest), could I order one separate from the group buy since group buy will probably not meet that date. I don't mind paying a little extra. Ramy knows I'm good for anything I'm interesting in :icon_tup:. Let me know here or by PM or messenger. Thanks.

thewird

thewird, that's gonna depend on whether or not Dan thinks he can get the kit together that quickly...that's a short time period to be working with...

For those who are interested in prepurchasing at our discounted introductory price, lets get a list going plz.

Thanks,
~Ramy
