I have 30,000 miles on the car. Drive it 90 miles a day. Houston traffic. During normal driving (avg. 28.4 mpg @ avg. speed of 41mph) Oil temp hits 250 deg f. with out side temp of 98deg f. Looked at setrab M25 oil cooler mounting position. Baker mounted in against the leading arc of the drivers side plastic wheel liner. I upgraded to a Nismo front face for more air flow and still can't see a passage for air to hit the oil cooler. Also do't see how air can flow thru it with the solid backing of the wheel liner. Any body else have this problem? Any suggestions? Where is the oil cooler supposed to mount so that it gets air flow?
