Hey guys

Still pretty new here, but couldn't find the answer to this. I'll make it quick. I have a 2012 Nismo and I'm looking to switch to Redline 5w30 pretty quick here after the break in and such. I was going to order on amazon a 12 pack, but the compatability tool says this oil doesn't work with my year, but does all other years. Now, I don't think there is any differences in the engine other than the oil cooler. But I wanted to double check that this will still be fine for my Z. Also I've never had a car with an oil cooler, are there any differences in changing the oil? Also, can anyone recommend a good oil filter as well? And I know this is split, but would you recommend this oil?

Thanks guys
