This Greddy oil cooler kit has been developed through repeated circuit testing and is designed for everything from street driving to time attacks on the circuit.
EARL'S PRO LITE 350, which is used for oil cooler hoses, is approximately 40% lighter than general stainless steel mesh hoses of the same length, reducing the load increase of the front overhang and thus the impact on handling. In addition, the flame-retardant nylon mesh hose is flexible and less aggressive to the body, making it easier to pass under complex headlights and inside bumpers, improving workability.
The oil block where the oil line is taken out and the oil cooler core are connected not with the conventional female-male-female connection method, but with the development of a "direct fitting" that allows direct piping to each part, realizing a stress-free oil line. In addition, by reducing the number of connection points, troubles such as oil leaks are minimized.
Generally, water-cooled oil coolers, due to their structure, tend to suppress the rise in oil temperature during intense sports driving, but the water temperature tends to rise easily. In our own tests, we collected data on a circuit where the car is driven under harsh conditions, both when a water-cooled oil cooler and an air-cooled oil cooler are used together, and when the car is driven only with an air-cooled oil cooler. As a result, we found that both the water temperature and the oil temperature were more stable when the genuine water-cooled oil cooler was used together with our air-cooled oil cooler, so we made a product that makes the most of both.
The oil cooler core is set up next to the radiator to prevent heat damage to the radiator and air conditioner condenser. In addition, the core body is equipped with a wind guide plate to direct the wind taken in from the front to the rear exhaust port inside the inner fender, maintaining stable cooling performance. The oil cooler core is made of aluminum, which is lightweight and has excellent heat dissipation properties, and the surface is painted with GReddy clear blue paint, which significantly improves durability and corrosion resistance.

The oil block in the kit comes with a built-in thermostat as standard, which prevents overcooling in the winter and makes the oil cooler suitable for use all year round. In addition, by replacing the plug union with a separately sold sensor adapter (CODE: 16400720), it is possible to install a meter sensor later. *1/8PT size. Installing an oil cooler stabilizes the oil temperature, preventing rapid deterioration of the engine oil itself and maintaining its lubricating, cleaning, and rust-preventing properties, thereby extending its life.
