But whatever. My car was fine without it and that's all that mattered.

I was also the only one-wheel wonder that VABAM couldn't keep up with even with his Quaife ATB.


Damn.

Yea i have a 14... correct me if im mistaken the oil coolers do come with a switch right? Therefor u can theoretically keep it off all the time unless the oil starts creeping above 220?

Every video i have ever seen, ppl always turn on the oil cooler before turning on the car.. Forgive my stupidness but im guessing u cant just switch it on when needed (on the fly)... Like during spirited driving when u see the temp rising but cant really pull over and stop to turn it on...
