Greddy Circuit Spec Engine Oil Cooler Kit:

Circuit Spec Engine Oil Cooler Kit mounts in the right inner fender under the factory core. Like our other Circuit spec kits this V-mounted 14row (-10) core uses our signature inner fin technology for high efficiency. This greatly helps improve the durability of the engine oil and in turn the life of the engine. The kit adapts to the factory cooler and routes the oil in series, for an simple install. The kit also features carefully crafted Inlet, Splitter, and Outlet Air Ducting to increase flow to and through both the GReddy and factory coolers. Light-weight Nylon-braided hose add to the upgrades on this kit; as does the necessary trimming patterns for a perfect fit.

Tested at Tsukuba Circuit, Japan, with one test driver, and two identical CZ4A Evolution Xs with SST transmissions (1 Stock, and 1 with both GReddy Circuit Spec Coolers.) The GReddy equipped Evo show consistent engine oil temperatures in the 90-100C range, even under hard circuit driving. While the factory car showed already showed over 130C (266F) engine oil temp., when the SST triggered the safety mode at 14min.

Greddy Circuit Spec SST Cooler:

The factory SST transmission found on Evolution X MR are known to trigger a "Safety" limp mode when the internal fluid hits 140C (284F,) which is not difficult to do during hard driving.

The GReddy SST Cooler Kit uses an additional independent system with it's own compact 160l/hr pump for superior cooling. It is easily installed by connecting to the existing fluid "Filler" and "Drain" ports on the transmission case. (NO machining required.) The V-mount arrangement is mounted in the front left inner fender under the factory unit (and to fit it, it also includes a new aluminum I/C outlet piping.) Another benefit, is that vital areas, like the Radiator, are not covered. The kit also includes carefully designed Inlet and Splitter Ducting to evenly divide and control airflow through both the GReddy and OEM cores, while the Outlet Ducting helps increases flow. The V-mounted 12row (-08) GReddy core takes advantage of the airflow under the vehicle to draw out even more air through the core (,while the stock core has to fight with the air turbulence of the spinning wheel in the wheel well.) Also included are precise patterns for trimming of the under liner.

Tested at Tsukuba Circuit, Japan, with one test driver, and two identical CZ4A Evolution X s with SST transmissions. After about 16min of circuit driving, the factory equipped car reads 140C and the ECU engages a 2000RPM limiter. The GReddy equipped Evo, drove on for 30min, without any adverse effects to performance.

Willall WR35TMX SST Synthetic Transmission Fluid:

HISTORY

Using the lessons learned formulating a superior and world leading Dual Clutch Transmission Fluid for the R35 GTR, Willall Racing are proud to offer their WR35TMX full synthetic transmission fluid for the SST Dual Clutch Transmissions found in the Mitsubishi Performance range start with the Lancer Evolution X. Using long lasting superior additive packages to give improved clutch drive, and having all of the gear face protection of conventional WR35TM for GTR, WR35TMX has proven itself with hundreds of hours of track testing across four continents, in climates ranging from Desert Summer through to Northern European Winter.

ANALYSIS

Mitsubishi advise some wide service intervals with their factory SST Fluid so we put this to the test gathering samples from across the world from daily driven cars that have never seen a track, through to heavily tracked examples that have used the inbuilt launch control feature many times over. The story was always the same, inadequate film strength at higher temperatures causing premature gear wear. Here are the Filtergram lab test results from a hard street driven 8000 mile SST transmission using factory fluid -

We actually look at what is happening in the oil using high quality microscope and camera technology. We do this by taking a 1ml sample of the oil and then washing it through a 0.3 micron membrane filter at 150psi pressure. This leaves any and all contaminents in the oil....from there we can identify them at 100X magnification. Filtergram is industry standard high end oil testing technology and is perfect for a wet clutch DSG gearbox arrangement where components of different material construction all have the common lubricant.

The shiny bits are 3 - 5 micron 3 body fatigue wear particles. These metal fragments are caused as the result of a foreign body being caused through a load bearing zone of the transmission creating a crack or dent in the structure. This wear will then continue and escalate till the fluid is changed and the transmission flushed. The concentration of this wear is on the high side indicating the fluid be changed more regularly.

This is a Sliding wear particle of 70 microns in size. Sliding wear is created specifically when the lubricant film strength is not sufficient and the two surfaces break through the hydrodynamic oil film and start running metal on metal. This kind of wear is concerning and shows that greater film strength lubricant is required in the transmission.

Another Sliding Wear particle this time at 65 microns. These particles caused by metal on metal transmission contact will in turn create more Three Body Fatigue wear in the transmission until they are flushed.

Dark Metallo Oxide particles at a large 350 microns in size are a good indication that the transmission lubricant is being over-driven. Heat and pressure in specific areas of the gearface will cause lubricant starvation and its here that Dark Metallo Oxides will form and create further transmission wear until flushed and replaced with a more effective lubricant

This is a little more concerning, known in the industry as 2 body Cutting Wear this damage looks very similar to conventional machine swarf, and is formed the same way when hard debris is forced between the gear faces and cuts through the surface material. It is imperative that this condition be remedied for the long term survival of the transmission

Last but not least is the presence of Red Iron Oxide crystals at 45 - 50 microns in size. Their presence indicates that there is some water content in the transmission that is not adequately drained or sealed. These in short are rust particles, and another pointer towards more frequent service intervals.

So how is this SST Transmission holding up on factory fluid? The answer isnt a short one. There is more 3 body fatigue and sliding wear than should be considered acceptable in a transmission of this age and mileage. Concerning is the 2 body cutting wear which shows that foreign material has actively been machining sections from the gear faces and bearing surfaces. This SST transmission is typical of most that we see showing more accelerated wear than you would normally find in a conventional manual transmission due both to inadequate lubricant film strength, and service intervals that are too wide for the application. With WR35TMX in place we have shown to reduce these wear rates 100 - 120 times, which is significant, but not out of the question when the original lubricant witnesses to be marginal in film strength at high temperatures.

In summary switching to WR35TMX will give the Mitsubishi SST Transmission

- Improved Clutch Torque capacity (up to 10% greater torque handling)
- Firmer shifting and less clutch slip at increased power levels
- Lower Overall Transmission Temperature (slower temperature rise)
- Reduced transmission wear and longer life
