My JDM H22 swap came with part of an aftermarket oil cooler/ filter relocation kit. The lines are there but the cooler part didn't come with it (the radiator looking thing). I was wondering if going without the kit completely would mess up anything. I'm going to be getting a FAL fan so I'm guessing that should cool the motor down more than stock. What do you guys think? The motor isn't stock, I'm thinking it has type s cams and pistons but I'm not sure. Thanks for the feedback...it's greatly apreciated.

 

Definitely man.
Most aftermarket parts work better than OEM stuff, so if the lines are better and you can afford one, DO IT.
Later

 

I have the lines but I don't think I can just buy the cooler part can I? So, I might have to buy a whole new system which I can't afford. I'm prolly gonna just use a stock filter and take the cooler lines off......More feedback is needed

 

go find a wrecked 84-87 corolla or a 88-92 corolla. they have factory oil coolers.

 

some h22s and h23s have oil coolers also

 

just take the cooler off, you can always add one later if you feel it's needed.

 

^that's probably what I'm going to do

 

summit racing sells oil coolers, i think they are relativley cheap also if you wanted to continue running an aftermarket oil cooler...

 

some crapy images of my oil cooler lines.....they are for sale now if anyone wants them.
