Review on πŸ”§ Mishimoto MMOC-BRZ-13 Oil Cooler Kit for Subaru BRZ Scion FR-S 2013+ Silver - Improved SEO by John Bourgeois

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great product, works and looks great, only one temperature sensor can be used, BUY NOT USED!

Great product! Everything was exactly as it should be. The lines were the right size, although I've seen people struggle with this, mine was perfect. I did everything according to the instructions, although there are no problems, but it does not flow. All the accessories are excellent, the product is perfectly finished. It sat perfectly in the right position, although difficult to work with due to the harsh lines of the stainless steel. Make sure you have a 27mm socket and an adjustable wrench to tighten the hardware and standoff screw. I contacted Mishimoto to get an oil cooler stencil but the one I received was already painted as shown in the photos, they shipped it anyway so 1+ for customer service. The only issue I had with this kit was that the 1/8 NPT holes didn't make it easy to install the oil temp sensor I had. It had to be turned to the right on the driver's side to make room for the sensor. It fits but very tight on the straps, I tried installing it on the other side next to the oil cap but it didn't work. I may take a photo of the engine bay later to show what I'm talking about, but the sensor fits, albeit just barely. If you must use two gauges, I recommend mounting an oil temp gauge on an intermediate plate and an oil pressure gauge on the oil plug kitchen on the engine block. DO NOT BUY USED! I bought a used 'like new' off Amazon and when I received it it had missing parts, oil all over the place and the oil cooler was all black with no logo and a dent, I had to return it. Just do yourself a favor and buy it new.
