Performance Oil Cooler Kit

The Mishimoto performance oil cooler kit is engineered as a direct-fit solution for the 2022 and newer Subaru BRZ and Toyota GR86. This kit addresses the limitations of the stock liquid-to-liquid oil cooling system, which relies on engine coolant. Under high-performance driving conditions, such as spirited track sessions or drifting, the stock system can become overwhelmed due to reduced airflow and increased heat. This kit introduces a robust 19-row external oil cooler that takes over the sole responsibility of cooling the engine oil, thereby relieving the engine coolant. This supplemental cooler increases the system's oil capacity by 0.75 quarts, contributing to improved thermal management and lubrication. The design prioritizes maximum airflow by mounting the cooler prominently in the grille using a durable steel bracket. Reliability is further ensured through the use of -10AN braided steel lines, which provide ample and consistent oil flow. An included heat shielding sleeve offers an additional layer of defense against abrasion and helps to insulate the oil from excessive engine bay heat. Mishimoto offers this kit in two configurations: a thermostatic version that eliminates the stock liquid-to-liquid cooler, reducing potential failure points and allowing independent operation of the engine and oil cooling systems for peak performance. Alternatively, a non-thermostatic option is available which retains the stock cooler, assisting in faster oil warm-up times for dedicated race cars requiring optimal viscosity quickly. The "Medium Difficulty" installation spec and the inclusion of all necessary parts streamline the installation process for enthusiasts. Mishimoto backs this oil cooler kit with their renowned Lifetime Warranty, providing peace of mind for the owner.
