I'm getting ready to start my winter build up.
Here is what I plan on doing for the oil system.
S14 oil pickup
GReddy oil pan
Touge Factory oil block.
Remote oil filter
Setrab oil cooler
GReddy oil temp gauge
GReddy oil pressure gauge
Nomex lines for the oil cooler setup.
I got a deal and a half on the remote oil filter/cooler setup. The oil pan was ordered this week, just waiting to save up for the gauges.
I'm concerned about the drop in oil pressure with my oil cooler setup. I've heard of people destroying their SRs because of lack of oil pressure. How concerned should I be? Are there any semi affordable aftermarket oil pump setups available to me?
I'm also doing a GReddy intake manifold so I'll have easy access to install the oil block and get access to everything so I'd like to do it over the winter, but I don't want to take any unnecessary risks.
The motor is basically stock, I'm hoping to buy a boost controller and up the boost to 15 psi. The car is not my daily driver so it doesn't see a lot of stop and go driving. I do drive it on the road, once a week, sometimes once every few weeks. In 09 (if my suspension install goes smoothly this winter) it should see plenty of track events. So the cooler will def a reason for being there.
I'm all ears....
