Look for PC water cooling bits, they are called barbs.

The HRC oil cooler parts look slightly similar?

As I understand it they used the same castings for the water pump for the regular and HRC versions, they just drilled out the casting for the HRC version.

Would it be easier using an Air based oil cooler off a UK 30 or an NC24? It shouldn't be anymore difficult to make one fit than fitting that i'm guessing?

Or is there a specific reason your going for water based cooling?

well,from what i understand of the jap nc30's is ,the oil pump isn't strong enough to pump oil up to the headlight area plus the caseing holes where the oil cooler fit onto the uk bike are blocked on the jap models ,so to get the oil/air cooler working i'd first need to source a uk pump or nc24 pump (the uk and 24 pumps are the same and are strong enough to pump to the headlight area) then take a working motor out of the frame,take it apart to drill out the blocked oil galleries and fit the new pump.....

if i had a motor sitting on the bench not running i would be happy to try this as yes the oil/air is probably a better job but i don't

to fit and run an oil/water i need a suitable sandwich plate,modified pump cover and some hoses,i may/may not be able to run a fan on the road bike with this but on the track bike i have not fan so clearance isn't going to be an issue but if i source a smaller filter (yamahahaa(yuk) fz6/new blade one has been mentioned before)i might get away with keeping the fan on the rad bike and my rads need to be up to taking the extra heat,if i get this far and my rads let me down the next stop is going to be bigger cooler rads to help with the exchange of heat
