Chase Bays 95-02 Nissan 240SX S14/S15 (w/S13 SR20DET) Oil Cooler Kit

This Chase Bays oil cooler kit uses a 13-row Setrab oil cooler core, a well-known component for its efficient heat dissipation. When you're pushing your SR20DET engine hard, especially in a swapped S14 or S15 chassis, keeping oil temperatures in check is crucial for engine longevity. This kit is specifically designed to integrate that high-performance cooling into your setup, helping to prevent oil breakdown and potential engine damage under demanding conditions.

The kit includes braided stainless steel lines with AN fittings, which are a step up from rubber hoses. These lines are not only durable and resistant to oil degradation but also make for a cleaner, more professional installation. Chase Bays has also included custom-machined adapters and mounting brackets, meaning this kit is built to fit your specific application without requiring extensive modification. The goal here is to provide a robust, reliable solution that directly addresses the increased thermal load an SR20DET can generate, especially when used for track days or spirited driving.

Installation involves routing the oil lines from the engine block to the cooler mounted in the front of the vehicle. While this is a comprehensive kit, it's always a good idea to consult the manufacturer's installation guide for specific details on routing and connection. Having a proper oil cooler like this can make a notable difference in how consistently your engine performs under stress, and it's a smart addition for anyone serious about maintaining their performance vehicle.
