Guys i'm having some problems with my oil cooler. It was allready fitted when i got it but its cooling to much while daily driving. Its an HKS version with i think the thermostat set on 70 degrees.
At the track the cooler works perfect cause the oil stays artound 100 degrees but i drive the car mostly on the public road (80/100kmh) then the temp on my oil gauge doesnt get higher than 70. The sensor of my gauge is fitted in the sandwich plate of the cooler.
Questions:
Is the oil in the sump hotter than in de plate?
Does anyone know if i can mount a different thermosthat in the plate or is there any company who sells a plate with a thermosthat of 90 degrees?
Is it possible to mount a different plate to the hoses of the HKS cooler?
Does this cause more fuel consumption? (now running 100/10ltr high octane) normal driving.
Ive been driving for 1,5 year now with this setup and during the summer i can get the car on 80 degrees but in my opinion thats still not enough. The car doesnt burn any oil.
Every thing that helps is welcome....
Thanks
