oil filter adapters that REPLACE OE shit (KA)
I want to do an oil cooler setup but I want a sandwich adapter that REPLACES the OE filter thingamajig.
So I want one that bolts straight to the block. Tomei makes an SR one.. any for KA? |
circuit sport makes for the sr too i dont think ive ever seen one for the KA
|
funny you mention it
it's on the list of things Mike and I have been meaning to make at point or another. maybe after we finish the project we're currently working on. |
Huuurrryyyy uuuppp!
I've got the block naked and want to reassemble! |
I hate to say it, but search... the ka block has the same thread pitch as a ford or gm cooler, you can order the sandwich adapter you're looking for from jegs... I dont necessarily have a link for you but i'm sure some searching on ka-t.org should find your answer.
That's all i'm giving you. "Trans Dapt Oil Filter Relocation Kit [trans dapt 1120] <--- that's a part number" |
hes not looking for a sandwhich plate , hes looking for a replace ment oil filter plate , like the companies above make

READ! I said REPLACES oem unit. not the sandwich plate. Yes, one with 4 bolt holes, not a thread pitch. Thanks Quote:

Make one, get a block of aluminum, take it to a machine shop and "copy" the stock one, with fittings. OR make the stock one work, cut out the threaded portion weld on a -10 fitting and drill out the return to the block and weld on an -10 fitting
|
Yea, I don't think you have any off the shelf solutions.
They work awesome for an SR BTW. lol. |

I don't have a machine shop or I'd do it myself. I miss the Berkeley machine shop.. :( Quote:

I don't remember how it is on KA, but on SR you got 2 holes: in and out. The "budget" solution could always be to tap them to NPT and use NPT to AN fittings.

tease, tease, tease....

keep the primary inlet and outlet -10.
and leave 2 ports for an oil temp and oil pressure, i'm not sure what size those need to be though. |

unless you're talkin about JDM gauges, which use BSPT if i recall correctly |
word, tomei uses 1/8" npt for the sensor ports.

HEY! Back off! Its mine! hahaha
I brought mine in to work today so I could CAD it up. Guess you're already on it. When is estimated completion date, Juan Valdez? |
That my dear friend, is the million dollar question....
We got two new cars to work on starting on a motor rebuild about to swap a motor on a car for a guy a previous project we're still trying to figure out and on top of that we work 11 hour days... honestly, I'm still learning the job and I'm no machinist If I had the skills, believe me, things would get done a lot sooner but the boss man tells me this is a pretty simple thing to do we just gotta take the time and get off our asses so, soonish I hope |
Anything I can do to help?
I'll come in and work for free tomorrow. haha I miss the smell of cutting oil and hot metal. Mmm metal shards. PS. I've got my block bare. Just need to find a head and order my pistons. PM me that shop's info. |
You can come and wash/vacuum my car... and make me a sammich!
lol |
I'llmake you some CHORIZO con juevos!
No me chinges.. |
Im interested in this as well. I was going to get the Prosport oil filter adapter.

is that metric!??
get that shit outta here, this is America! Been busy with regular boring type work. Maybe will work on it some more tonight. |
It is metric. Japanese use Metric!
in fact, we are the only retards not using metric. (i think) Lets use a base system where we have to count to 12 instead of intervals of 10.. you know, like how many fingers we ahve! WORK ON IT!! haha, I'm piston shopping as we speak. |
Mano, what do you do? Engineer?
i want to engineer things. |
