Oil Cooler Kit for Toyota 86 (2013-2019) 2.0L

Thermostatic Oil Cooler Kit for 2013-2019 Toyota 86 (ZN6)

What it Does: The Oil Cooler Kit regulates lubrication temperatures on the 2013-2019 Toyota 86 by circulating oil through an external 19-row heat exchanger via a thermostatic sandwich plate.

The Stock Toyota 86 Thermal Limitation

The high-revving FA20 boxer engine relies strictly on a small, coolant-based heat exchanger or ambient dissipation, which causes engine oil temperatures to rapidly exceed 260°F during aggressive driving or track sessions. In the ZN6 chassis, excessive oil heat leads to thermal viscosity breakdown, dangerously low operating oil pressure at the crank bearings, and accelerated mechanical wear on internal valvetrain and rod bearings.

The Engineering Solution

This cooling upgrade incorporates an efficient 19-row aluminum bar-and-plate core engineered to shed high heat loads without causing major oil pressure drops. The integrated 73°C (163°F) thermostatic sandwich plate prevents overcooling by keeping the circuit closed during cold starts to accelerate operating warm-up. Heavy-duty, high-pressure braided oil lines and robust aluminum fittings eliminate leak risks under sustained track vibration and elevated hydraulic loads.

What's Included

• 19-row aluminum oil cooler
• 73°C thermostatic sandwich plate with spacer
• 2 x high-pressure oil hoses
• Mounting bracket and fittings

Frequently Asked Questions & Fitment Warnings

Does this fit the ZN6 86?

Yes, this is a direct fit for the 2013-2019 Toyota 86 equipped with the FA20 engine.

Will I need to add extra engine oil after installing this kit?

Yes, pre-fill the 19-row core and add roughly 0.5 to 0.75 quarts of additional oil to account for the core and line capacity.
