just out of interest, does anyone know if that GSL-SE cooler I posted up is the same as a series 2 cooler?...... I presume they fitted it to the GSL as well Stateside as they didn't have the beehive did they?

If GSL-SE is a full face rad like the S3 then the oil cooler will be different to a S1/S2 oil cooler. It will be like a 12AT oil cooler.

You can use it but you have to mount it in front of the rad I suspect to prevent fouling on the chassis rails and make up longer hoses to suit.

Did you end up fitting the oil cooler in the end? About to fit an FC cooler myself in the next couple of weeks. Did you need to get hold of a non-beehive oil filter pedestal?
