I have removed a couple of them, and everything is the same.

I've got a 93 TA can I just remove the cooler and the filter mount right up? Do you think it keeps the oil cooler with or without it?

I have a 93 as well, and I had to replace the bolts that hold the inside piece on so the filter would clear, but like I said, no problems, everything runs the same.
