Greddy Oil Cooler Sandwhich Plate

[mystery_kid]

so i am looking at getting one of these: http://www.240sxmotoring.com/groilcoadw.html

and an ebay oil cooler kit

the thing i want to double check and this is probably a retarded question but i am asking it because i remember vaguely reading this somewhere on here: when the thermostat is closed on that, the oil doesn't skip the oil filter does it? it doesn't seem possible as the oil should initially come straight through the center large hole and into the filter and then from there gets sent back into the engine or through the cooler depending on the temperature.

it seems straight forward but i am just being paranoid

thx

Parinoid.

Its one of the best setups on the market, don't skimp on the cooler though, go as big as you can.

I got my dash 12 lines and fittings from Torques (UK) on egay. Great quality and prices.

yeah the idea seemed retarded in my head, but i just saw someone mention it in passing over threads here and it planted the seed in my head

thanks

I have the remote mount version of the Greddy thermostat and one of Vulture motorsports cooler kits. Flawless thus far. The thermostat can't bypass the oil filter, it only changes the flow of oil through the cooler as it heats/cools.

I'm not %100 about the one you're looking at, but on mine there is a spring loaded pressure relief valve that will bypass the oil filter, but only on the condition that NOT bypassing it would stop oil flow to the engine (ie. badly blocked filter). Hope that clears things up.
