I am potentially looking for the oil cooler radiator and mounting hardware (brackets, bolts, bushings) that was standard on the non-US X300 XJR. US X300 XJRs did not come with this cooler.

New ones are too pricey for this project, but a used one may not be too expensive to tinker with. So I'm wondering if anyone has a breaker X300 XJR around with this cooler they'd be willing to sell, or if someone can keep an eye out for one since I'll never run across one at a US wrecking yard.


This is the part I am looking for (parts: 1 (cooler), 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 (mounting hardware) ):

Probably the best & cheapest way to fit a NEW oil cooler is buy a remote adapter that takes the place of your oil filter. Run AN braided hoses to a new filter location then to an aftermarket cooler, then back to the adapter. V12's used to sell a billet adapter but their no longer around. I sure oil filter relocate adapter/kits are around I figure buying aftermarket or Jaguar a oil cooler will set you back $700

I too was looking for a oil cooler for my AJ16SC project and what I am thinking about trying is the hoses and cooler/brackets from a Series 3 4.2. I believe that
simply flipping the pipe work upside down and to the other side it might just take a few modified brackets to fit the cooler to the front.

Just a idea.
