From the pics I have been sent my  MRS engine has a single exit pipe unit
Coming out at 90 degrees just above where oil filter I assume is screwed in ....

New 04 engine has two  pipes that exit out just above oil filter that turn upwards with rubber hoses connected but where
do I connect them , wish I could post the pics but can't at the moment , the pics posted don't show what I'm looking at


Thanks for all your help

The roadster come with an oil warmer as standard that is what your looking at. Now the import did not have the warmer as standard so that the difference. Now if they are using your water pipes from the old engine for the new one you will just leave the warmer alone. One pipe in and one out it won't hurt it.

lots of opinions on oil coolers but for me regardless of manufacture it should be thermostatic to allow  oils stay at a better constant which is important on a turbo car.

yeah to be fair the elise parts sump was in a different league, they are the go to sump if you have a 1zz or 2zz and are doing track days. and have all the bits ready on them if your going turbo

literally about 3 holes lined up had to drill out every hole to a oblong shape, the welds where not the best, then after all that got the thing on bolted it up and a weld had cracked at a corner and was weeping oil, so threw in the towel and got a elise parts.
