  1. Aust MY2017 a Torsen or std LSD?

    So to restore it as it should be or works best for road & track, does one import a T2R centre to reuse 3.55, a fully loaded diff housing in 3.73 or put a Eaton trutrack via Harrop’s and reuse 3.55? Thoughts?
  2. Aust MY2017 a Torsen or std LSD?

    Is the Aust MY2017 a Torsen or std LSD? I have looked at the part number on it and it is difficult to read with the over spray from the pre-delivery black exhaust system paint. The window sticker does not seem to elaborate either.
  3. Oil cooler failure - first hand experiences?

    I believe they key advantage of the water-oil approach is that it heats oil to temp quicker, no thermostat required, smaller packaging if large air-oil cooler cannot be fitted. I assumed that the cold side of a radiator would be significantly lower than the running temp of the loop, but I have...
  4. Oil cooler failure - first hand experiences?

    It is mounted in full flow on the cold side of the radiator. The test results from PWR "Heat Ex Info.PDF" for the largest core size 68mm is below. Testing done on the PWH55126 100 Litres/min water flow 25 Litres/min oil flow Water temp in 80 deg Water temp out 83.1 deg Oil temp in 120 deg Oil...
  5. Oil cooler failure - first hand experiences?

    I was thinking to do the same with a PWR Water-Oil cooler (PWH55125 55mm core) used in elite motorsport (WRC) that is small (190mm long x 150mm x 84mm excluding oil outlets). PWR claim it is equivalent to a 500x500 air-oil cooler (note for the slightly larger 68mm core). It might fit into the...
  6. GT350 oil filter housing fit RHD GT?

    I really appreciate the help, the in situ pictures are helpful to see on car orientation. Once I get back to Australia end of this week (working in Tokyo on business) I will have a look at my car and see if things look like they might fit based on your picture. We know that the standard USA GT...
  7. GT350 oil filter housing fit RHD GT?

    Thanks TJCShelby that is extremely helpful. It is interesting that there is no thermostat, set up as race car so longer oil warm up times for street. That reduces the attractiveness of exploring this path but it would still be interesting to see if it clears the RHD rack if one wanted to go...
  8. Oil cooler failure - first hand experiences?

    Improved Racing are happy to try and make their kit RHD compatible. But, they cannot get access to RHD car for fitment so they are reliant on input from us. I have send some pictures of the OEM oil cooler extension housing and mentioned that I expect that they would need to make spacers to fit...

    I would like to join in. But, I do not do facebook. Any other means of contact to join in on the drives? Thanks for the welcome everyone.
  10. GT350 oil filter housing fit RHD GT?

    Thanks, I would like some photos if you could of the takeoff housing and the part #. The ID of the oil line ports would be use useful as well. I have looked at the MMR kit, but it does not have a thermostat. The Improved Racing filter boss and thermostat or such like would need to go with it...
  11. New but been following for a while

    I have been following this forum for several years but just registered. We have a 2017 GT in Race Red (June 2017 build) as a weekend drive for the wife--she actually asked to get it as loves the looks, so I said no problem but it has to be manual. My weekend drive is a E36 M3 (well modified...
  12. GT350 oil filter housing fit RHD GT?

    I am wondering if the GT350 oil filter adapter can be used to set up a air-oil cooler arrangement on a RHD GT? I might need to get a unit to try and see. Meanwhile, can someone help with the following: - there is a new cartridge filter unit M-6881-52CA, does anyone have handy the part # for...
  13. Oil cooler failure - first hand experiences?

    Looking for a remote filter option with an oil cooler, like many from what I have read on this forum. I have come across a promising unit from Improved Racing (USA) that is a remote filter and thermostat which will simplify plumbing...
