    We made some for our race engines, but haven't made enough to sell to the public.

    One of our club members has a remote oil filter on his Justa, he said it was a kit he bought from one of the MINI parts suppliers.

    I never found changing the oil on my '03 S to be that big of a deal that I'd want to switch to a remote......unless there's better filtration or something to be had by doing it.

    Well, as I tried to say above, my after market oil cooler thermostat completely blocks the oil filter. There is enough slack in the Aeroquip to move it some, but it is still a pain.

    I'd be interested in a windage tray if anyone made one, probably one of those gated oil pick-up baffles too. My oil pan gasket is leaking again. I might try using some liquid gasket, à la sport bikes, on both sides of the oil pan gasket instead of a simple - stays mushy - sealant.
