HKS Oil Cooler Kit for Honda Civic Type-R FK8 17- 15004-AH004

OIL COOLER KIT

It's very important to control the oil temperature to enjoy driving.

Extreme increases in oil temperature can break down the oil and decreases its ability to lubricate, cool and clean the engine and can cause damage as a result. HKS Oil Cooler Kits are designed with advanced cooling technology which enables stable oil temperatures to extract the maximum ability from the engine.

Oil Cooler Kit for Vehicle Specification

Optimum size of the core and layout design improves cooling performance.

With the use of a new core, both cooling and pressure drop prevention are balanced at a high level. Some vehicle applications contain air guides which maximize the air flow through the oil cooler core during vehicle operation, even in drifting applications where the car may not be facing in the direction it is pointing.

* Some kits are the factory replacement type.

Oil Cooler Kit with Optimum Core Size and Layout Design.

The kit for the fastest FF model CIVIC TYPE-R(FK8) is released.

Product Development Concept

The K20C engine generates 320ps with 2.0 displacement; therefore, the vehicle is equipped with a water-cooled oil cooler to stabilize the extreme high engine output. However, under circuit driving, the temperature of both oil and water rise sharply because adequate heat radiation cannot be obtained, and fail safe mode becomes activated.

Adding HKS air cooling type oil cooler kit provides high heat exchange efficiency to suppress the temperature rise not only of the oil but also the water. HKS oil cooler kit includes a special aluminum air guide.

Features

Newly developed 48mm wide 9-layper oil cooler core and special air duct to extract the maximum performance are utilized and mounted to the inside of the inner fender.

The oil pump’s pulsation noise generated by increase of engine rotation sometimes transmits to the vehicle interior through the high pressure-resistant stainless mesh hose.  HKS oil cooler kit has the insulator to substantially reduce this pulsation noise.

The attachment has a thermostat to restrain excessive cooling of the part.

Vehicle modification required to install this kit is minimized. (Modification of back of the bumper, inner fender, and brake duct are only required.)
