I bought a setrab oil cooler with fan (119FP). Now I need to find a place to install the oil cooler.

I know this might sound silly, but do you think I can 'hang' the oil cooler on the rear sway bar? Will I run into any issues? It seems like a perfect place.

TIA.

How do you plan to attach it to the sway bar? The OEM sways have very thin walls. What does the oil cooler look like, do you have a photo? What size?
 
Right next to the exhaust traveling parralel to air flow? I don't know how well that will reduce oil temp but at least you won't increase drag. And I hope you never need to use that toe hook either.


Hijacked: Can anyone point me in the direction of an oil cooler with dimensions that is long and narrow?
 
This has worked good so far. Air comes in through the side scoop, over the tire and is forced through the cooler as shown. The fans supplement cooling at slow speeds. More pictures at my website www.mscperformance .com

There aren't that many places in the nsx to install an oil cooler. Besides, that setrab oil cooler has a built-in fan behind it. All I need is 10-20 degree celcius drop and I'll be happy.
