Re: Oil Cooler... useful?

As people have said, the GTA has an oil cooler as standard - quite a large, well-ducted one as well (the ducting is vital for rad and other coolers).

If overheating is a concern, also consider just using absolutely top-qualkity lubricants, rather than just a cooler. Also if in a hot climate consider running a water and water wetter mix rather than glycol.

I have a slight suspicion that the diff failures - which seemed common in Oz - might be due to heat, in that case again I'd simply recommend a top-quality racing derived lube, not a mechanical solution.
