ya so back to my transmission cooler project...
I will be using this cooler and will be mounting a fan to it. The question is will I mount the cooler remotely or cut under the hood scoop and mount it there? I think I will also be adding the remoter spin on filter as well. Hmmm... will see???

 

8 inch 1700 CFM [size=13px]reversible[/size] 10 blade fan

 

Did you end up buying or building an adapter plate to bolt up in place of the factory trans cooler?

 

I I built my own adapter from aluminum stock so I can use flat gasket instead of o-ring. And for the water exchanger I will run a long narrow cooler along the factory radiator which will increase coolant capacity and also add a little more surface area for controlled temperatures.

It getting powder-coated. When I get it back naturally I will post it up.

 

A few things that go on during the first 20 seconds after the engine has cold started.

1) Engine Start



2) 10 seconds after cold start



3) 20 seconds after cold start

 

Here are the basic parts I have machined or acquired for the project. I may still make some more changes as I get closer to the actual installation. I have not yet finalized exactly how I will be controlling the fan yet either nor have I started the relay and switch harness for it. I did swap out the original intended cooler for this one in the picture. The Transmission inline filter adapter can be used with many brands and type of spin on filters.



All parts are only lightly placed for the pictures. There respective type and location may change during the installation. The hose in the picture is not high Pressure hose and will be
changed out for High Pressure hose for the installation

 

OK so an all day project to set the pattern by hand and then do the machine drilling to match the Stop Tech drilled pattern on my Cork Sport rotors.








The next step after a cleaning will be to paint all the drilled holes with brake caliper BLACK PAINT.
This was after all for the looks only.

Don't copy this do your own because I may not know anything about the 12 volt electrical system on a vehicle and ECU programing.
Please don't ask me all the details of this project, I already forgot any answers to question you might have.
I know this only works for singing it like a song... sung to the tune of "Me and my MAAAAAZDA" . I have already had something similar and it has been working now for over a year with no problems, wait what is that smell of electrical components burring up?? LOL.

Really I just wanted to share another project only and NOT talk about the technical aspects of it!

The purpose was to be able to quickly as I desired turn off and on the day light running lights without have to do the BS dialable procedure. Why I want to turn themn off is simply the wanting to be able to do so. Its a "A" personality control thing! LOL

Here are my simple parts for the basic project:

I will post more "pictures" as I complete the harness and do the install.
