Default Oil Cooling Kit

Ok all, got some oil cooling issues that I can't seem to fix so decided to try get an Oil Cooling Kit.

I dont have a lot of cash to spend so if anyone could help me find a kit that will fit my engine. Its a 1998 mk 1 VTS so it doesnt have the oil cooler on it.

I know we should stay away from eBay garbage but wondered if anyone thinks this would be any good?

Or would it maybe be cheaper to buy the bits separate else where?

Cheers.

a pretty much stock engine shouldnt need one, dont mask problems with an oil cooler, you need to find out why its hot anyway

Many things can effect cooling. A common one these days are old radiators. There are many other things just because the car is starting to get on a bit now.
