For that period-correct look and sound, the GPP RS-Race for the 1993-96 (FD3S) Mazda RX-7 is here.

The new RS-Race Tri-bolt tip feature allows for even more customization, with the installation of optional RS Tip Silencers, various tip lengths and styles in both stainless steel and genuine Titanium. We even offer optional Titanium turn-down tips, perfect for that hot rotary exhaust gases of stock and modified 13B-REW rotary engines.

GReddy GREX Oil Block Adapter Type E

GReddy Oil Block Adapter (Oil Cooler Kit) Campaign -  FREE Metal Label and Decal

To help clarify exactly which type of oil filter your Oil Cooler Block Adapter needs, use our FREE GReddy Metal Label and Decal in your engine bay.

If you have a GReddy Oil Block Adapter or GReddy Oil Cooler Kit, you can receive yours FREE, just follow the steps below...


HAVE A GREDDY OIL COOLER OR GREDDY OIL BLOCK ADAPTER...
 GET YOUR FREE GREDDY METAL LABEL AND DECAL
(follow below...)

 1.)   Identify which type of Label you need for your correct Oil Filter Threads: 
        3/4-16UNF  or  M20xP1.5

        a.)   There are basically 3 types.   See (Figure A. below)  Compare the Center Bolt markings:
            b.)  The simplest way to identify the Oil Filter Threads from your Center Bolt is the length
              of the Threads: 
                  Short Threads 3/4-16UNF - H:13mm and Long Threads M20xP1.5 - H:20mm
        c.)   Center bolt:   Eng. 3/4-16UNF to Filter 3/4-16UNF  -  No Markings
                                     Eng. M20xP1.5  to Filter  3/4-16UNF -  Line on every corner of bolt hex
                                     Eng. M20xP1.5  to Filter M20xP1.5 -  Line around entire base (+ longer threads)
   
i.)  Pre-2017   The most common type of Filter Thread is the 3/4 x 16UNF - basically because all GReddy Oil Cooler Kits and Oil Block Adapters prior to 2018, all used either a center bolt adapter that was Engine: M20xP1.5 to Filter: 3/4x16UNF or Engine: 3/4x16UNF to Filter: 3/4x16UNF. 
ii.)  In 2017 GReddy introduced a new, more convenient Engine M20xP1.5 to Filter M20xP1.5 (center bolt p/n 12028813) and (oil block adapter p/n 12401119.)  Currently only newer Oil Cooler kits like the 2017-on Honda Civic Type-R and Civic Si / Sport Hatch Oil Cooler kits and new M20xP1.5 kits will come with this M20xP1.5 center bolt.
   2.)   Go to Instagram and search @greddyperformance and then "Follow" our account.
   3.)   Next take an engine bay photo(s) with your GReddy/GREX Oil Block Adapter from your
          GReddy Oil Cooler kit or your Custom Oil cooler kit, which uses a GReddy Oil Block.

   4.)   Post that photo (or photos) on your account with your Oil Filter Thread - HASHTAG:
          #GReddy3Q or #GReddyM20
  along with Tagging @greddyperformance

   5.)   We will then DM you on Instagram for your full mailing address or you can email us at
          shop@greddy.com with a link to your instagram post and  your full mailing address.

          (please be sure to let us know what size Oil Filter Threads you have:  3/4-16UNF
           or M20xP1.5) - * FREE Shipping for USA Customers / Int'l Customers, just pay shipping.
