They are just oil coolers lol, been around forever, serve a purpose, but why mount it out there like that? It's STUPID. You hit something and blow your motor.

Why mount it out there? For DIRECT air cooling,, by your reasoning why run a drag car with an intercooler and no front bumper? Ever seen a Skyline GT-R with dual side mount oil coolers? They aren't protected for shit, neither are these. This was a racing thing for Japan in the old days, the cars were all high rpm screamers, thus the need for a large and adequately cooled oil supply, any more questions, Google it. For someone who proclaims to be the end all be all you sure are ignorant about the OG shit.

Cool, thats what i figured. thanks for the info.
So i guess this guy built the car as a reproduction of the old jap racers. Pretty cool, but i still think the hoses could of been routed better. He has 90 degree fitting pointed out and away from the car, like hes trying to make as much hose as possible stick out of the car.

Everyone has their opinions, but external oil coolers are a major part of the theme and history of these style cars.
