Why do you think I said it would probably have to be a customized install? I know they are more rare, and I'll repeat myself, but its not like they don't exist.
LOL
With a stock rad I wouldn't do it, if you had a nice big racing radiator with an engine oil cooler built in then definitly its a fine idea. Now where you can get such a thing for our cars I don't know, it'd probaby have to be custom made or bracketed, but its not like they don't exist.
IJ: very aussie of you ;), but yea not good.
It looks like what I have to do is get it up in the air some time and have someone push the clutch pedal while I watch with the access covers off; since I guess it COULD be a ton of different things.
Just to prove the inconsistency of the...
Hey guys, something kind of strange is going on with something in my clutch assembly when I release the clutch pedal. Every time I start my car and I let out the clutch pedal (fairly slowly, not just lifting my foot up quick and obviously in neutral) I get this click from something undernaith...
Well, then my advise like the other have said would be to try to return it and get a 56mm one. Worst case, you have to try and sell the one you have and just buy a new 86mm gasket.
Well, relating it to how the water cooling system works from my own experience in my own car; I don't see much (10*C at the very high end) over the thermostat temp ever, thats where I pulled my conclusion from.
I understand what you're saying though JJ. :)
If my conversion was right its much less then 500AUD:

Well then you wouldn't see anything much above 180* now would you? LOL.
I need to get an oil cooler setup as well and it is on my list of near future upgrades, but I don't know if I will go with a 180* thermostat, seems kind of low.
Anyway, I'll be sure to remind you during the summer if you...
Kind of interesting no one runs one (well aside from you and the frantic temp monitoring, LOL) since it would seem to me like its probably one of the most important guages I have. Water just remains the same as long as the coolant system is working OK and its great to tell if its not but oil...
I know, its pathetic how little of an expert I am on oils. I have yet to find something that goes really in depth though so please enlighten me JJ. You seem to think you know so much, but apparently its some big secret and you can't help anyone else?
And yes, its Jersey, there is barely such a...
