I know this is a super old post, but I was wondering if anyone has any input on a thermostatic adapter for the block to allow a remote oil filter instead of the thermostatic sandwich plate listed in here? I really don't want to spend 150 on the grex adapter then a mocal sandwich is $85, anyway to use the Mocal sandwich with a remote filter?

i'm running this http://www.summitracing.com/parts/TRD-1113/. block -> mocal or grex thermo oil cooler sandwich -> transdapt relocation fitting

just be careful what filter you put on the reloc kit. an OEM vg30 one will leak cuz of o-ring ID size

Like the setup carl was planning on doing this next to my car. You saved me a bunch of crunch time looking around and speaking of looking where did you find ufo hefiwizen (the beer pictured for those who dont know) i cant find that s*** anywhere?
