The filters threads are the same....I can sell you one...but i cannot garuntee 100% that the gasket surfaces will line up 100%....the next time I am at NAPA I will look at the suby filter vs the one they call for the corolla.

need one for my EA81! (put me on the list and let me know when available)Thanks

I'll sign up this week for sure.

 

I have a question though: The way the threads are on the oil pump and the cooler adaptor, does it end up that the hose attachments will ALWAYS face down? Or can it possibly happen that they could face another direction?

Just get some 90 deg fittings...thats what I did. my current setup is way radical tho...and i odnt even use that adapter.

For example...I am not going to use one of these adapters...for i am going to use a remote filter mount kit along with an oil cooler...non-thermostat'ed. These adapters have a t-stat in them, which is good for the street/autocross/track days. I am shooting for all out racing-izm.
what temp does the t-stat open at

never mind last time i read though it didn't say and instead of reading though again i just posted so sorry

subyluvr,

earlier in the thread they mention using this on a NA car may not offer any value since the oil isn't heated up by the turbo. do you feel it's worth it for a NA vehicle or did you get a turbo?

This won't go on my XT.

 

I've got the boost bug BAD, and getting to drive Manny's monster XT didn't help :D. So I'm very very seriously considering building a Turbowagon in a very similar fashion... That's what this oil cooler would be for. Thanks for looking out though :)

sweet...that's what i was hoping your response would be. glad to hear it michael. hope it's fun.

so did you find one to fit my rolla, Will?
