New Product: Banzai Racing FD Oil Cooler Bracket Kit

For years we have been making custom Single and Dual Oil Cooler Kits for customers cars that are in the shop. After many requests from FD owners looking to put together their own oil cooler kits, we have developed adjustable brackets that work for most 19 Row and 25 Row Oil Coolers, the same bracket kit can be used on the Right or Left.

Our brackets support the top and bottom of the oil cooler, making for a very sturdy installation, this reduces oil cooler failures due to fatigue caused by "hanging" from the top tabs only. Every oil cooler manufacturer warns that the top tabs are not designed to support the weight of the cooler.

Each kit includes Stainless Steel Brackets and Hardware for installation of one oil cooler.

Oil Cooler Parts (93+ RX-7)

Installation instructions (Mishimoto 25 Row Oil Coolers shown)

Introductory price good through the end of April.


25 row configuration, flip the small brackets over for the 19 row installation.

There is probably someone that has done it, but I have never tried since it is recommended to install an oil thermostat with the aftermarket coolers which would make using the stock lines impractical.
