what is this?
 

i was tranfering pumps and sensors from my type-r block to my b16 block and found this on the type-r

The b16 does not have that

Then the oil filter adapter has a hose running to this part that was bolted into the block

and on the b16 theres just a bolt there.

Is this a type-r upgrade?

It's an oil cooler. Look at the hoses # 2 & 3. The cooler itself isn't numbered in this picture. One of the hose nozzles in the block is #1 - that's what you have. You may need to use the water pipe off the type-R because of number of hose connections.

and to put the oil cooler on the b16 i would need to install this

Its the screw for the oil filter, so ofcoarse i would have to remove the one out of the b16..


Can i do that?

The one in your B16 should be almost like a simple pipe nipple. I think you can just take that out & replace it with that extended one in your picture. Someone verify that for sure?

ya its like a lil nipple, just threads.. how is this removed

Re: what is this? (wmertz187)
 

i had nothing else so i clamped it down with vice grips and twisted it slwoly

You can use a strap wrench if you don't want to damage the threads.
