New Rubber oil cooler mounts
Not sure it the sheer rate is the same but you can get rubber radiator mounts new from mazdatrix for $9ea. I ordered one awhile back and it look just like the oil cooler rubber mounts

Thanks a lot Allen....I just received 4 mounting rubber pieces (from great generosity of TimPA136) and they do match up quite well to the pics of your provided link!
thanks again...

Thanks jfaplanet,
Received the new radiator and installed it. Looks and seems to work great. Now i have a new problem. The fan and clutch assembly will not fit in front of the rad anymore. Need to upgrade to electric cooling. Would really like to install the fan in front of the radiator out of the engine bay. Any ideas???

Sparky...I have few questions for you. What kind of hoses are you running and where did you get them from?

I think the hoses are from 1st gen rx7 or repu. Not sure. I had to cut the lower hose beacause it was too short. Had a few used hoses laying around and picked the ones that fit best.
Update on electric cooling: Installed 2 10" fans in front of radiator, pusher setup. Waiting for delivery of adjustable thermostat controller.

Did you mean oil cooler hoses?
Raceing Beat has a kit of the braided lines.

Tim, was not discussing oil cooler lines, radiator hoses.
Regarding my oil cooler lines: I'm sure i bought them used. I think from someone selling used rx-7 parts. Just bought the hoses. Ended up buying the aluminum flare fittings from VW Paradise in Escondido.

Oil lines and radiator hoses...
@Tim....that's good to know regarding the oil lines! Will check out RB for sure....thanks a bunch!
@Sparky...could you snap a pic of your radiator set up with the 2 10" fans? It'll be cool if I could what it looks like! Thanks in advance....

Sparky...you can sign up with Photobucket.com for a free account and you can upload ur pics there. Once you uploaded ur pics, it will create an album for you and you can choose the pic you want to copy. Once you click the pic you want...there will be options for you. Choose the option on the very bottom...click on it and it will automatically copy the link for you. Then come back here as usual and reply, then you just paste it on here and WaLa!!!!!!! Very simple to do....give it a try!
