That still does not make much sense as you would only be moving it upwards a few inches :?

Or do you mean the bonnet scoop as in a top mount oil cooler?



The best flow of fresh air it will receive by the way is where it is ;-)

i relocated my cooler with a filter relocation kit. the relocation kit sits in front of the fuse box on the left side of the bay ( 100x EASIER TO CHANGE FILTER) then the oil cooler sits behind the P badge grill on the left honeycomb vent as your looknig at it.. hope this makes sense... just use normal braided hoses !! good place to put it..

I got one of these oil cooler (19 row) and filter relocation kits, they are soooooooooooo worth getting! Really happy that i got one.
I got mine from Driftworks, it uses a 200sx (s14) oil filter, as i think the relocation kit is metric fitment.

Standar oil cooler is a round thing on the back of the engine on the oil filter housing. (not the oil filter, the other round thing.:p )

Nope because removing the Grille and then just using a 19 row cooler to plug the gap would look silly :lol:

Plus the cooler would not fill the hole completely and you would have the bonnet catch in the way also!
