Integra oil cooler. Water cooler and filter.

Integra Oil Cooler

This looks like a small Radiator used to cool off the engine oil or the Automatic transmission fluid. As air passes through the cooler, the temperature of the oil in the cooler is reduced. Some units reduce the temperature of the manual Gearbox and Differential lubricants in racing cars.

A heat exchanger for cooling oil. Most automatic transmissions are equipped with an oil cooler that's located inside the radiator. Since the radiator usually runs close to 200 degrees, the amount of "cooling" this kind of setup provides is questionable.

(integral) the result of a mathematical integration; F(x) is the integral of f(x) if dF/dx = f(x)

(integral) built-in: existing as an essential constituent or characteristic; "the Ptolemaic system with its built-in concept of periodicity"; "a constitutional inability to tell the truth"

(integral) constituting the undiminished entirety; lacking nothing essential especially not damaged; "a local motion keepeth bodies integral"- Bacon; "was able to keep the collection entire during his lifetime"; "fought to keep the union intact"

Eagle Rod Modifications

Deburred the parting line to avoid scraping the bearing shells. Added an oil squirt hole to assist thrust-side piston skirt oiling and dome cooling. I copied the design from the stock rod. Stock design uses a 4 mm hole stepped down to a 2 mm hole. It is angled at 20 degrees (as I recall). Some might argue that I should have modified the block for piston oil squirters. Maybe so, but they do fall out. Plus the B20 tends to have more low speed grunt and so rod squirters, which pulse twice per revolution at all speeds, are probably a better idea (Honda thought so). One disadvantage may be excessive oil on the cylinder wall when using 0.0045 inch PTW clearance. I have installed a crankcase vacuum pump to aid ring seal and oil control during high manifold vacuum (like deceleration). I am happy with the results after putting some miles on the engine. The pistons are running very cool. I know this because I can still see the marking pen ink I used to number the pistons in the center of the top after 500 miles and many 18 psi freeway blasts.

Integra

Gasper's freshly painted integra with the JDM front. Im loving this spot downtown for auto shoots. Old section of 195 highway. 3 sb-800 strobes triggered with poppers and su-800 commander, flash all at around 1/2 power. 2 from the right and one towards the front.
