TH200R4 guys - need help!!
Could anyone post or e-mail me a pic of where the cooling lines attach to the tranny?
I'm having trouble finding a fitting that's small enough to attach it to the lower cooling line port. The port is only about 3/4 inch from the tunnel..
I was already thinking in cutting the tunnel so that I can easier attach a fitting to connect the hose and then cover the hole with sheet aluminum..

Heya Olivier!
You're PM box is full!
Check these out: one of mine looks a little bent up, but the pressures and temps are fine so it must not be restricting flow. they don't show what happens as the lines run toward the front. Mine run right next to the oil pan.
I'm thinking of getting one of those permacool coolers with a fan on it so I can mount it back there anyhow and not have to run long pipes.

I'll put a new pipe on it when I decide where to mount the tranny cooler. If not, I might at least put a union on it and replace the end. I don't think I can replace the whole line with the motor and tranny in the car, but I could be wrong.

Mark, were those pics taken with the tranny in place or during the install.. It appears as if your tranny is tilted forward...
