oil cooler for K-series engines

Post by Collier »

I was in autozone getting everything I needed to change the oil on my miata and I saw that the oil filters for the mx3 and miata were the same. So in theory, the threads will line up and an oil cooler kit for a miata could work on a mx3.

If you have a 4 cylinder then yea :)

I am sure you can make something work for a v6 too but the v6 doesnt really need to have cool oil, it has a cooler on the oil filter neck that runs to the coolant

I'm pretty sure that it will work on the v6 as well. If the oil filters line up then the oil cooler should as well.

I know the v6 came with one stock but I was thinking that it could probably use some help.

I was working on the principle of colder=better.
