Recommended Posts

Looking to get an oil cooler for my 2008 Legacy 2.5 GT automatic. I found part number 21311AA051. Some sites say the part will fit but on a couple sites the number and part comes up but when I go to put in the year, make, and model the site says it does not fit my car? Which one is it? It looks like what I need. Is part number 21311AA051 the oil cooler I need for my car? Thank You

It looks to me like it will fit. My guess is that the sites that say it won't fit don't sell many legacy gt parts. I've found on on a few sites that only show figment for WRX and sti... But sites that show it'll fit on a legacy seem to suggest it'll fit yours.

I don't understand why guys think they need the p/n. Just contact one of the vendors and tell them you need a oil cooler for your car, they will send you the right part.

 

Click on the Vendor link on the blue bar top and look for Fredbeans or Heuberger.

305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD).  CHECK your oil, these cars use it.

Maybe to save a little money. Heuberger's website here is the part

 

http://heubergersubaruparts.com/parts/index.cfm?siteid=215892

 

It's $214 plus shipping cost

 

Here is Heuberger's on Amazon

Exact same part coming out of the same building but for $205 and free shipping. Saving around $20 - $25 going this route.

I thought the GT's had an oil cooler between the oil filter and engine block?

 

Yup, that picture in the link is exactly what it looks like. The oil filter screws up onto it. Those hard lines you see on the cooler is where the coolant hoses attach.
