Hope that helps, pretty sure that you will have to grind the bracket away abit with any plate but its not that hard man takes 5mins

I bought the mocal one from ebay and an extra length of hose just incase. I cut out a chunk of my power steering pump bracket to make it fit but its still strong. I mounted the filter in the same place where everybody mounts catch tanks (but i need to make a proper bracket as its only held with 1 bolt). I also fitted a sandwich plate with the filter so i could use an oil pressure gauge. The hoses run from the block along the front inbetween the radiator and intercooler, through under the water bottle and alongside the intercooler pipe to the filter. In places where the hoses would rub, i have wrapped rubber around them to protect them.
Hope this helps

i like wat you have done there nice work. what sort of temperature is your oil at. ive read some where by just doing wat you have done can bring the oil temperatures down nicely so dont have to get a oil cooler but can you plum a oil cooler in to this kit.

 

[Gary91]

Not sure about the oil temperature as i don't have a temperature gauge at the moment but it should be cooler. I guess you could put a cooler in after the filter if you wanted but i think you need to have a thermostat otherwise the oil would never be hot enough.

Quite long run, any problems with pressure?
And what is the small white tube?

 

[Gary91]

Pressures, cold start - around 60 psi, driving - 40-50 psi, idle - 20-30 psi
The tube is the oil feed to my gauge as i didn't have the sandwich plate when i fitted the relocation kit, its t-pieced into the hose. The sender in the sandwich plate is just a plug as there were only 2 supplied. i have an electrical gauge to put in so i don't need the tube but haven't got round to fitting it yet
