Needed:

Four - 3/8" barbs (3/8" = 9.5mm)
Four 3/8" hose clamps
6' 3/8" Fuel/Oil hose
Ultra Black RTV
You will need a tap for your barbs if you don't have one. $2.50 shipped - ebay


Instructions:
There isn't anything to say that isn't obvious. Take the stock Toyota oil filter stand- off & cut it in half. Tap (& drill if needed) the channels to accept your hose barbs. Put your sealant around the threads & tighten (15ft-lb, or pretty hand tight is good enough).
From there you have the one end that bolts to the block & the other that has the oil filter. You can relocate it anywhere you want. You can easily add dual filters, and/or an auxiliary oil cooler.
The half where the oil filter goes is pre-tapped with two plugs at the ends of the oil channels. One can be removed to install an oil pressure fitting, or a hose barb (1/4", or 3AN) if you need a turbo / supercharger oil supply.

********************

For people not able to drill out their own channels, it may be hard to find 3/8" barbs that do not require drilling holes out before tapping them. I had my local Nut & Bolt house order me some to my specification. (9/16"-18 NPT w' 3/8" barb)

*Note* If you're not afraid of under sizing the , 5/16" barbs are very common. The thread size is generally 9/16"-18 thread. The tap will fit straight into the oil channels without drilling.
So if 3/8" barbs are unavailable, you can always try common 5/16" barbs. (0.375" VS 0.3125"). I wouldn't add a cooler on 5/16" lines, but otherwise there shouldn't be a problem.


An interesting fact. Between 20-30psi of oil pressure, that's only a few thousand rpm, (& it will vary on each specific engine) the oil filtration system is COMPLETELY bypassed internally.

never mind I found the thread, that is neat, I will consider this later.

that guy

why would you want to move the oil filter? is it to make room for a turbo?

Easier oil change, extra oiling ports & possibilities, more room, less heat.
