Is it just me or did toyota intend to put a transmission oil cooler?

Has anyone put one in? If so, what did you use?

Tranny oil cooler is factory installed.
It's the small radiator look-a-like near the radiator.
Many people misunderstood that it is engine oil cooler.
Engine oil cooler locates at the base of oil filter bracket.

As far as I know ST165's never came with tranny cooler's. Its not to say you cant install one though...I put one in my car, its from a ST185.

Believe it or not, Toyota does call that little loop on the tranny case an oil cooler, although it's hard to believe it's very effective. I wonder if there wasn't something in the WRC rules limiting oil cooler placement to the stock location and they put that loop and ducting in place so they could install a larger one in the same location for racing.
