Im looking around for an oil cooler for the celica. I will not be turbo the engine or getting a 3sgte, but i will do an engine swap in the future and will be using the celica on the track every once in a while. I know there are universal oil coolers, but im not sure what to get. Dont want to spend more than $400 and I would prefer a brand name.

So if anybody can enlighten me on oil coolers that would be great.

Bringing up an older thread in stead of starting a new one.

Has anyone tried this yet? I'm not sure if it would really be worth it but am willing to give it a try. I just bought a new radiator from AutoZone and it has the oil cooler built in. In one of the other threads I found a link to these:

It wouldn't be hard to run two lines to the oil cooler in the radiator

Found another thread about the same thing:

Good pics of the adapter to run lines off the filter:
