OVERVIEW
Build your custom auxiliary oil cooler system with confidence using the Racer X Fabrication Thermostatic Oil Cooler Adapter Plate for the 2013+ Toyota 86 / GR86, Scion FR-S, and Subaru BRZ (ZN6/ZN8 platforms). Engine oil temperature management is crucial on FA20 and FA24 engines, especially during track days and spirited driving. This sandwich adapter plate allows you to plumbing external oil cooler lines directly from your factory oil filter housing while keeping oil temperatures perfectly regulated.
Integrated with an internal 185°F (85°C) thermostat, the adapter ensures your engine oil quickly reaches optimal operating temperatures before routing oil through an external cooler, preventing cold-oil engine wear. Precision CNC-machined in the USA from 6061-T6 billet aluminum, both the adapter plate and custom spacer feature high-grade square-profile O-rings to guarantee a leak-free seal against the OEM filter pedestal. The included custom M20 x 1.5 threaded center adapter retains the factory thread pitch, allowing you to use standard OEM oil filters directly on top of the assembly. Finished in a durable black anodized coating for long-lasting corrosion resistance.
