you cannot remove it (part of the factory installed cooling system) without
voiding your entire engine warranty.

The dealer now has no suggested add'l cooling options for the 2012 model that will not void the warranty.

Nissan has effectively removed the performance experience from their performance car.

This is my 2nd new Z and will be my last Nissan purchase of any kind.

Nissan needs to get their head out of their ***.
Being a warranty master... Brother, you're kinda wrong... Yeah tampering with the cooling is a no-no, but if a dealer says that they're going to void your warranty because you took that POS off, you need a new dealer who is mod friendly.
When the shít does hit the fan in any scenario, revert to stock, but there will be no real evidence this thing was uninstalled.
50% of members have an UpRev tune... THAT will void your warranty, why worry about a factory "oil" cooler
