A mate with the same cooler as mine also mounted behind drivers foglight except he had a fan on the front of it (that failed last track day) and his threw that warning after 20 mins or so of giving it the jandal. Fan was blocking a fair bit of the cooler whilst not spinning.That spot you picked is where heaps of CMS setups have it (all without drama) and I think a few Real Dyno cars in qld have it there as well. I preferred fog light because it's always fairly breezy (tuber slotted inner wheel well to allow air to pass through) 2 summers now and 40,000ks (totalling 120k) martini z spec fluid holding 373rwkw daily. Only issue has been first shift into 4th of a morning flares the tiniest bit.If only ford didn't put such a sh*t exchanger in to begin with Edited 03/04/14 12:48 PM by old_mate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of the old days when guys put the thermo fans in the grill in front of the radiator, so they looked cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment best guess would be air is just skimming over it and not actually going through it Edited 03/04/14 08:17 PM by sct911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulletime Donating Members 937 Member For: 14y 1m 24d Gender: Male Posted 03/04/14 08:34 PM Share Posted 03/04/14 08:34 PM might give outlaw speed shop in adelaide a call in the next week or so and get a price for one. shouldnt be too hard to fit at work one day,any idea how much fluid you lose during the replacement or just spend the extra and change the oil and filter in trans whilst im at it and have a fresh run?mine took 1 liter, the ppl that did mine said they did it at the right temp too, under 40 degrees, I've read on AFF ppl saying it took 400-500ml, I'd be thinking they'll have problems with incorrect fluid level.
