I really like your car, but i think the oil cooler would make it look daft. If you need to run one put it behind the grille |

I think a very small 'detail' one, maybe 13 row or somesuch, mounted at an angle below the black bumper, or behind the grill, would be much better and subtle BTW, that is a faaan-tastic car  |

Me and Graeme liked the idea of stencilling your reg number on one instead of having a front plate.
I've patented the idea so nobody else can steal it. I can see ya, coming after my first original idea ever!! Get back! Get back I tells ya!!! arrrrghhhhh11111111111

Don't do it! Your car's far to clean looking to do that to it! IMHO of course

i'd go for it! something about 12" length x 6" width (silver mocal one), i'd use braided pipes with your car though, keep that clean look, & the braided lines will match you wheels, a little highlight on the front of your car, i love the rwd starlets, top cars!!!!!! i will have one at some point, yours is a cracker!

thanks for the comments, I aleady hav an earls 13 row cooler, thinking of putting that under the bumper, and was thinking of going for the blue/gold earls 90deg fittings and bringing the braided pipes in the gap in the bumper between the reg and the spot light bracket

I say no, fit it discretely instead of on the bumper like that. |

I think if you can get one that looks like a J one and not like a generic Mocal 13row then it will look damn good!

Japan? ;D My one is a B&M unit which I thought would be ideal for exterior mounting applications, it's a lot stronger than the conventional units which are likely to get stone damage. Of course thats not a problem when you've just got a length of air hose wedged through the headlight fitting and it's not connected to anything   |

I like it! Like ^^^ they say, it'd have to be the right oil cooler though. I'd be concerned about some twunt cutting thru the hoses... I thought the Japanese used dummies most of the time?
