I just replaced my oil cooler on the 93 GTS and thought I'd add a couple pictures to this thread in case anyone searched on it later. An embarrassingly easy job - but kind of messy due to oil spilling when you first disconnect the lines.
Earlier in this thread you'll see a post from Roger about having a supplier providing rebuilt coolers. He said he no longer uses them; so, our only option is to buy a new one or try taking it to a radiator shop for repair. If you think a radiator is expensive, wait 'til you buy one of these. Just another reason to make sure ride height is correct.
I smeared a little oil on the O-rings before I put them in place and so far no leaks. But, for peace of mind, if I had to do it again I would've put a little drei-bond, honda-bond, etc. on the rings.
Speaking of trashed/damaged oil coolers...if anyone has one and are willing to drill out the rivets I need a few of the belly pan hooks. My cooler is fine, but a few hooks are missing. Let me know if you can help!
They fixed a stripped mounting hole on the cooler on my GTS and did an ultrasonic cleaning for $150 back in 2010. Not sure what a welding repair would cost.
