FB/SA Rx7 OIL COOLERS - How To Keep COOL and Fix Leaks
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лип 2020
- Viewer requested an overview of how the oil coolers work on these cars so here we go! The end all to how a factory oil cooler system works, and what you can do to improve it!
Thanks for doing this. This clears up the questions I had. I believe on the 81-83 cars, they came with a slightly shorter radiator (the bottom 2 rows were removed) and the oil cooler tucked right under it, but the later cars (84/85) used the taller full size radiator and it covers up the factory mounting holes. So most folks that do the conversion move the oil cooler a little forward and mount it in front of the rad. You just need slightly longer lines. Either way, there's plenty of room under there to fit it.
Perfect. I have never owned anything but SA or GSLSE. So I haven't much experience with the early ones!
very helpful information
I have a 84 gsl with a 79 (short rad) 3 row rad and it has the mounting bolt holes for a front mount
good video info!!!! My steering box in my SA have a small leak at the adjustment nut🤔
Going to be filling and adjusting the box on the rally car. It will be similar!
Hey mate love the channel. Its help out with my resto alot. I noticed your rats nest videos are different to the original rats nest on my car. I have a australian delivered SA 1984 series 3 limited rx7. any chance u could assist in working out the vac lines layout on this one. Couple hoses have me stumped
Of those 4 derelicts I scored one is a 1981 confirmed by decoding the VIN at NHTSA and it has a front mount cooler and radiator. Have a guy locally wanting to buy the cooler and came across this vid trying to figure out what to charge for it
Do you know by chance whats the Torque spec for the big bolt at the bottom of my 1980 front mount oil cooler? oil by pass thermostat bolt
Do non beehive engines use a thermostat for the oil cooler? So I want to do this to my 85 12a. Do we need to find an aftermarket thermostat to control oil flow?
Can I run a thermostatic oil filter pedistal and run it with the beehive ? Just wondering.
I wanted to mount it on the tube at the front of the car? Recon that's a bad idea?
Hey brother great work!!
I own a 1980 that Im using all the original 12ATurbo 1984 lower intake,turbo and manifold, orange hat with a Boost prep Nikki. I need help with the Ignition(Dizzy). I also have the 12AT dizzy but will like to delete my 1980 igniter box to use the two igniter on the 1984 Turbo Dizzy.
Please if you can help me please reach me at kaneca19@gmail.com
will be great if you can make a video on how to upgrade the 1980 ignition to the later version with igniters on the Dizzy 1982-85
I have a video on this, although not specifically geared to a 1980 rx7. I have one that outlines the newer ignition
You ever tried to fix a floppy front bumper cover? Mines held together with tape and I wanna fix it but can only think of riveting it back together with slats of metal to bridge the sides.
I'm not a super confident body guy, but I do have my fair share of rotten bumper covers and valences. Ill note it and look into it
Would you mind showing how to throttle assembly on a Nikki goes on? Like the parts stretched to the primaries, I’m in the middle of a rebuild and I misread the instructions and am now stuch
Its in one of my older videos if you follow the 1979 12a build Playlist somewhere
We are the rotary defenders. Nvm about the pin for my clutch I actually found it!
No worries!!!
Hey can anyone tell me on the 83-85 beehives is there 2 o rings to replace or 4? I've gotten both answers. Took mine off yesterday and there was only 2. Went to order some from mazdatrix and they say you need 4? Can anyone tell me lol?
Did you ever figure it out? I believe there’s 2 more under the oil cooler pedestal that mounts the beehive to the block. But I’m not dead sure, I’ve been reading this same debate on the forum over and over (I’m about to do the o ring replacement)
does anyone know of any companys that make a 15 inch wheel for the first gen bolt pattern?
Konig does. Rota does. Look on ebay
Konig. Goodwin racing has a ton in stock
Hey dude im looking for 12a racing beat intake manifold ill buy thank you rotarys all day lol 😆
Todos estamos buscando esa araña🙄🙄
Think its worth it to hollow out the fat cats on a 83 gs and plug up the air pump tube? Mine imploded and I'm running no exhaust now
Ideally you could just find a header. But it won't hurt it to have increased exhaust flow
@@RADPotential thx for the quick reply
@@RADPotential just got done today emptying the precat out, took the main cat to the shop and drilled speed holes thru the baffle inside on either end, turns out it was two chambers filled with billions of little beads that crush into white powder. Painted them up sealed and threw them back in, just finished up, worked great
@@RADPotential also epoxied up the air pump tube
my oil cooler broke on the side oil coolers never break. Luckily i found one for 100$ locally and fixed er right up
Man the original coolers are so hard to find. But they work so well
-8 AN sounds too small to me. My fuel lines are -8
Oil feed is from front to back, fyi.
