Winter Bits n Bobs

[krobinson]

Now the nights are getting longer, i've decided to start gathering bits to get the car ready for the summer.

Firstly, an Oil Cooler. Still need to get a sandwich plate, anyone know places online that sell them? And i'll get a local hydralics place to make the pipeing.

Secondly, an Oil Breather/catch tank (bailey)

Just need some exhaust heat wrap and to save to get the front bumper repainted next!

yeah that looks sweet will make the engine look nice. bailey motorsport is just up the road from me.

[krobinson]

You should call up, try and get some discount! lol There products are first class, but rather expensive. I almost bought another oil catch tank, but decided to pay the extra and get the bailey one as i already have the header tank.

Salt was the death of the paint on my front bumper! lol

Bailey stuff always looks good, where are you gonna mount the oil cooler?

The new tank and cooler look good keith!! Could you not just use a XE sandwitch plate?? And even use the pipes on XE aswell, or get them made!!

Not sure if i will mount it on the lower part of the front panel, or hang it from the locking panel so its seen through the grill. Any suggestions?

Trust you to come up with yet another useless non-constructive reply lol

I mean the evenings are getting longer, more daylight, kinda helps you get motivated!

And clamp the hoses onto them, do you think they'd be safe enough? or should i get a hydralics place to make more secure connections?

[Stuart]

you could use barbed fittings and clamps but id go for proper hoses though... get swivel fittings put on so fitting to the car isnt a pain...

helpful that time? :p
