tranny cooler for manual trans!!!!

[NRDriver]

so i got a wild hair up my butt and finally installed the transmission cooler on my manual transmission. i have debated this for a while cuz i dont really think the fluid gets that hot, so i ran the crap outta my car today and it made a huge differance. way smoother shifts when the car is warmed up.FYI... i work at a transmiison shop and have knowledge in this area and think its worth doing. i just put a small cooler on it. one of the haynes coolers for smaller cars. i am using synthetic 75-90 in my trans.
Update.... today i heard that keeping the fluid cooler will prolong the life of your fluid which would be correct, although thats not what i was thinking about when i did this mod
i paid 35$ at my shop for the cooler. but i get a discount. i recoment the "haynes 1401 or 1402". i am using the the 1402


just thought i would put this up since i was takin pics down there

^^^x2 and how much did you pay for the cooler?

hmmm....how big of a cooler are we talking about? and where'd you tap it in?

since my car used to be automatic, I have the automatic tranny cooler built into the bottom of my rad. I've been thinking about running the manual gear oil to that cooler.

Hey question. I was watching the speed channel last night and it talks about manual tranny being different from auto. They said something about manual tranny usually needs to be hotter for the clutch to work at its fullest. Then again this was formula one. The guys would abuse their clutch at warm up trying to cook up the clutch.
