SF Bay Area: $100 for help with R1 oil cooler install
I'm covered in oil, my knuckles are bloodied, and I'm thoroughly pissed off. I'd just give it up and take it to a shop, but my car's in pieces and I can't drive it. I have the front bumper off, the stock single cooler out, and I can NOT get the R1 lines to snake through all the radiator ****.

If anyone in the Bay Area comes over and installs these things so I can drive my car again, I'll give you $100.

Santa Cruz. Pretty much the exact opposite of the Bay Area from Stockton.


Thanks for the reply and bump, though.

Yep. I actually unbolted the swaybar mounts and kinda swung the radiator down a little bit...just enough to snake the hardlines through.

lol, I was pretty frustrated.
