Mishimoto Non-Thermostatic Plate & Adapter Silver 2013-2021 BRZ / FRS / GT86 | Billet Aluminum | Oil Sandwich Plate Adapter
Overview
The Mishimoto Non-Thermostatic Plate & Adapter is designed specifically for the 2013-2021 Subaru BRZ, Toyota 86, and Scion FRS platforms. This oil sandwich plate adapter allows enthusiasts to add an external oil cooler to the FA20 engine without modifying the oil filter housing. It is ideal for drivers who push their naturally aspirated or forced induction setups hard, ensuring consistent oil temperatures during spirited driving or track sessions.
Crafted from lightweight billet aluminum, this sandwich plate prioritizes durability and efficient oil flow. Unlike thermostatic versions, the non-thermostatic design provides continuous oil cooling without temperature-based restriction, making it a straightforward solution for high-performance applications where maximum cooling is critical. The inclusion of M20x1.5 ports and 1/8-NPT sensor ports reflects Mishimoto’s attention to detail and commitment to functional engineering.
For Subaru BRZ, Toyota 86, and Scion FRS owners, maintaining optimal oil temperature is essential to engine longevity and performance, especially under track conditions or forced induction upgrades. This adapter plate integrates seamlessly with Mishimoto’s oil cooler lines and fittings, providing a reliable, no-drill installation that enhances oil cooling capacity and protects your engine during extended high-RPM use.
