Easiest Oil Cooler Install Ever! | Eg Civic B16

[@ll.7927]

Plan to install one on my turbo integra that I road race. Also u should use some rubber between the oil cooler and where u have it mounted. Vibrations is gonna tear apart ur cooler. Exactly why the radiator has rubber on the bottom and top of it.

[@JarrodWillemse]

Yes good idea! I don’t plan to drive the car a lot so I think it should be fine.

Hey mate, nice install, wondering if it was worth it? And did you have any leaking issue? From hobart tassie here, thanks

[@JarrodWillemse]

The oil cooler ended up leaking and they sent me a new one.

[@JarrodWillemse]

Also I would recommended get a thermostatic oil cooler as it takes a long time for the car to get to operating temp

[@chenyuxie6233]

Hi, do you still remember how long are these two oil lines?

[@JarrodWillemse]

The kit came with two 1.5m lines and I cut around 30-40cm off them

[@thejason6767]

Hey, i know its been a long time, but i have a question. Did you drain the oil beforehand?

[@JarrodWillemse]

No I didn’t. The oil is sitting in the pan so it won’t leak.

@@JarrodWillemse thanks!

Hey Jarrod, have you had the chance to check the oil cooler setup, any leaks and was it effective in cooling down your oil, looking at doing a similar upgrade to a civic with b16a

[@JarrodWillemse]

I will finish it off today!

[@JarrodWillemse]

I was running the car for some time today and the cooler body had a leak where the fitting was attached. Nothing super bad but I have emailed and asked for a replacement.

Dude you look like sebastian vettel 😆

All I need now is his talent and money haha 😛

@@JarrodWillemse I'm sure you have the women running after you for an autograph 😂 How's that oil cooler long term? Here in Canada I saw the evil energy oil cooler on Amazon. It looks similar to your set up. I'm looking into buying it, but I'd want some feedback before I actually do. I'm not sure if I should buy a 10 or 16 row cooler 🤷🏻

So did you eliminate the b16a stock water cooler?

[@JarrodWillemse]

Fortunately my car didn’t have one.

[@JiroProject]

@@JarrodWillemse b16a2? I wonder why the older b16a have it and all other b series didn't, and if I eliminated it if it'll be dangerous

[@JarrodWillemse]

Not sure why particular models got it. If you are installing an oil cooler you can remove it. I heard that in some rare cases the cooler fails and coolant gets into the oil.
