Found this clip of a Mk 3 with twin-charged 2J-GE?

ellis reported an ATF hard-line failure. Other than "metal-fatigue" I'm not sure of the details, nevertheless, it would be a good idea to include "check fluid-lines & mounts" in next service schedule!

Should you have a shiny aluminium-radiator without the coolant-circuit interface cooler/heater temperature-stabiliser and wish that you had one... Mocal make a pretty one with a Laminova core. http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motorsport/oil-coolers-accessories/mocal-laminova-oil-cooler-water-cooled Laminova info here. http://laminovapro.com/laminova-oil-cooler-information/

N/A pan strainer looks like this. (Hybrid Transmissions use this one too.) T.T. pan strainer looks like this, the gasket fits either.

For "competition" use and/or over 500ftlb use, sensible persons fit a remote 19 micron filter Note: Filter is located before oil cooler. Mocal Remote Oil Filter Heads come in many forms. http://www.mocal.co.uk/products-rfh.html

Easy-fit oil cooler kit(s). 350 to 400ftlb = OE temp-stabiliser + stat + 1 x cooler. 400 to 500ftlb = OE temp-stabiliser + stat + 2 x coolers + A650E sump. 500 to 600ftlb = OE temp-stabiliser + stat + 3 x coolers + A650E sump + remote filter. With a thermostat fitted it's not possible to over-cool, however, fitting an ATF temperature gauge is the sensible way to learn reality of cooling required!
