Thermostatic Oil Cooler Kit

The Mishimoto 99-05 Mazda Miata Thermostatic Oil Cooler Kit is engineered to combat the excessive oil temperatures that can arise during track days and aggressive driving. High oil temperatures can lead to severe engine damage, turning a fun track session into an expensive repair. The stock liquid-to-liquid oil cooler found in NB Miatas is adequate for daily driving but falls short under strenuous conditions. During testing, this oil cooler kit demonstrated the ability to reduce oil temperatures by 10°F (5.6°C) during a 65 mph highway cruise. Its mounting bracket design doubles as ducting to efficiently channel air to the cooler. This setup also strategically positions the cooler away from the front bumper, accommodating the installation of intercoolers or other forced induction modifications. For turbocharged Miatas, where turbos further increase oil heat, this cooler is an essential addition. Featuring a billet aluminum thermostatic oil sandwich plate, the kit ensures that oil reaches its optimal operating temperature before being directed to the cooler. This thermostatic control is crucial, as overcooled oil can be just as detrimental as overheated oil, especially in colder climates. The kit includes pre-made stainless steel braided lines with durable -10AN fittings and is backed by the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty, ensuring reliability for your roadster.
