[RESOLVED] 4g63 oil cooler

[asd_gst]

the oil cooler on my 1g gst broke today. it has a small crack in the side when i turn car on oil just pours out all over the place. is this a common thing to break? its a 91 and its all stock with a little under 140000 miles on it. where can i buy a new on?

check out slowboy racing or cimotorsports.net

ebay has oil cooler kits but you may have to make mounts for them. I like them though about 179 dollars i think. I bought a 300 dollar one on ebay, I wish I found the cheaper one before. Mine is a very nice kit and it looks like the less expensive kits and probably is by the same company.

 

[asd_gst]

i think it was a different part that broke, like the oil filter housing, its the piece that the oil filter is on and the oil pressure gauge is on that bolts to the side of the motor... what part is it and where can i buy it???

 

[pj91gsx]

it is the oil filter housing. find out where it is broken so you know for sure if it is broken. well I have one that came with my jdm swap and it is made for the oil cooler lines. I wont ever use it. so let me know if you need it or want it.

Get an aftermarket unit with larger volume. There are many high quality units available. If I remeber I think a company called Sertrab makes good coolers

OP already said the OFH broke, not the actual oil cooler.

I would recommend jnztuning.net for your OEM replacement needs. You can get a brand spankin new one for very cheap through them. I also believe extremepsi sells them. Don't forget a new gasket and crush washers!

Sorry, it sounded like the external oil cooler cracked(air to oil cooler) not the liquid/ oil cooler.

However, it might not be a bad time to upgrade to the earlier version with air/oil cooler if you are already replacing the filter housing.

Forward facing oil filter housing- 6 bolt : JNZ Tuning is this the same pice that the filter and oil pressure sending unit is on? also there is a oil line running to it.

or this??? Air cooled oil filter housing-6 bolt turbo : JNZ Tuning

 

[asd_gst]

it has to be for a 91 turbo for who ever has one because the differnt years have differnt ones

is this it? EXTREME PSI : Your #1 Source for In Stock Performance Parts - OEM Oil Filter Bracket Assembly: Mitsubishi Eclipse 06/90' - 04/92'

 

[asd_gst]

if anyone has any they will sale please if you can send pics so i can see if its waht i need

 

[pj91gsx]

Ill send you some pictures as soon as I can. I will try to get those pictures to you tonight.

 

[blcknspo0ln]

Let's not stray off topic here, take your for sale ads to PMs. OP, you need the water cooled 6 bolt oil filter housing, not a 2G OFH and not a 90 air/liquid OFH.

 

[pj91gsx]

His is a 91 that has an external oil cooler. The oil is not cooled with coolant. My jdm swap came with a oil filter housing with an external oil cooler set up. The oil cooler lines were cut of course so I cant use it.

 

[spendone]

Im sure its a 90 style housing.

 

[pj91gsx]

It just hit me that 90 is external oil cooled and 91 is cooled with coolant. I bought my car with out the motor so I got confused because I am going to run an external oil cooler.

Is this what you need? This is the oil filter housing: EXTREME PSI : Your #1 Source for In Stock Performance Parts - OEM Oil Filter Bracket Assembly: Mitsubishi Eclipse 06/90' - 04/92'

Or the oil pressure gauge sending unit? That is part number MD133273. It's the bulb, baloon looking thing that screws into your OFH.

You have a water cooled 1991-1994 6 bolt oil filter housing. You can easily tell from the water line that is right under the oil filter. There are 3 exposed bolts that you can easily take out to remove the OFH, the 4th one is under the timing cover.

 

[asd_gst]

ok i bought the part for extreme psi thanks to all the people who were going to sell me one i just wasnt sure if it was the same piece so i just bought a new one

I was wondering if someone could post pics of the coolent lines that go to the oil filter housing, and the complete routing. I can't remember where they were ran, because I did a 6 bolt swap in my 1994 talon.
This would help alot. I can find any info on that part of the cooling system.

Thanks.
