Jake,
Where did you get that radiator from? Is it an ebay one or did you get it locally?
Can you run a tape across it and give me some dimensions?
Is it a side filler type?

Just an ebay one, look up ZZT celica radiator. It is one where it is filled through a pressurized overflow but I just got an inline filler with radiator cap from an echo to use in mine to keep things simple. But I do have a overflow tank from a celica as well.

Got ne measurements?
Jake,
What you doing for oil filter set up?
Ill measure mine when I open the bonnet again, haha. I can just sneak the std setup in other wise I have an oil cooler adapter and remote mount setup.

Mine definitely hits the chassis rail with the filter on,
I can buy a smaller filter for $16, its off an industrial grader, the filter is only 25mm high, and it will fit, but have to take the steering idler bolts out to change it...This is what I did with mates RN90, as a short term get it running thing.....3 yrs later, still running fine...but dodgy as...
Or buy a $390 + freight anodized billet alloy 90degree adapter of dude on trademe NZ, but it has no provisions for oil cooler...exxy
Or what I have done, a $90 CRS adapter that gets rid of that stupid long stock filter neck, and now I'm on ebay looking at coolers and remote filter bases, but am unsure what size cooler.. I want one that's long and thin, but nothing like what I wants on there...only thin one's are like small 7 row...is that even going to be big enough?
Well my engine had no oil cooler std so one has to be better than nothing, I got a cheap oil cooler kit for 4age for $100 and an adapter for $20 delivered from the states only thing with the oil cooler is that the lines are too long and need to either make them shorter or get new ones. Also the adapter I got is of average quality one of the threads is pretty average and have to get it cleaned up before I put the speedflow adapters in, which where $10 ea, so the adapter cost me $40 ready to put fittings on.

Don't filters have different flow rates?
I have a GREX filter base/PWR cooler setup for the GZE I was thinking about using on the 1UZ, but was told they're are different flow rates by engineer......
He said the Ryco one about $70 from repco come with 3 different size thread fittings for different size filters and that he used them on ford/chev with some filter part number he rattled off....I looked at the ryco one, it looks kitch as....
Where the hell would I find flow rates chart?
Its Google time.
Hmm, 2UZ OE filter set up would work.
New dilemma, thermostat type or non thermostat type...
