Re: 5G Prelude with SWAP and turbo
next modification - oil cooler:
due to AC, there was no room for oil cooler, so took me long time to find out the solution
after couple hours measuring and thinking, I find the 9 rows cooler

but the cooler was too high with adapter fittings


so I make them fit (cat and veld)


then I made brackets from aluminium to mount cooler on his plase





now still working on oil lines

Nice work! I know the problem! The cold doesn't help.
Its only +10 degree Celsius in my garage, I ran put of gas for my heater today.. Even that Wasn't pleasant.
What is the temperature at your garage?
Bracket looks good! I do not like the oil line that close to a moving part especially a pulley.
Make sure it will never gets too close!
Still can not believe you are running this setup with power steering and ABS
Keep it up!

Never had ABS on the lude.
You still have aircon? That I miss the most.. But we have different goals. Full track and sleeper are way apart!
Btw , Easy route
