Yep - I haven't seen a 8G VR-4 with a factory engine oil cooler - just the transmission cooler (or should that be heater/pan ) and the power steering cooler tubes.

There is no STOCK oil cooler on our cars. You can install Greddy oil cooler (there are two types - 10 or 13 rows) it comes with oil filter relocation parts and also allows for oil temp. and pressure sensors to be installed (i've seen a thread about sandwich plates... ;) ). For those who decided to upgrade their turbos - oil line is kinda in the way, so might be a good idea to get this Oil cooler.

Trans cooler also is not existent in stock form... transmition is cooled via stock radiator (look at the lower part - you will see a line that goes in and out... in my case it's cut - I have a manual VR4 with radiator from an auto).

power steering - little aluminum tube that sits in front of stock intercooler (or behind it for me).

Thanx all for your input. I have some idea of what to start looking for now :2thumbsup

Don't these cars have water cooled oil coolers?
