Default **AE Performance Oil Cooler Kit! Now Available!!**





AE Performance is prowd to introduce the AE Oil Cooler Upgrade.

Background:
AE Performance has run 3 different Oil Coolers Kits from other manufacturers in search of superior cooling and quality and after our 3rd attempt to find an oil cooler that can keep the Z's engine oil temps safe in high heat applications, yet respond well on the street and include high milage reliability, we gave up and decided to engineer our own kit!
Our Kit is a direct extension in every aspect of current kits on the market to provide, superior cooling, quality parts, and long term reliability.

Parts:

Full Billet Block Adapter:


Every kit we ran all came with cheap cast block adapters and one leaked right away. No Cast here. Full Billet adaptor, superior fit, will not leak or warp from heat over time. Built to last!

Teflon Coated S.S lines:


We also noticed extended wear on fender liners, chassis and any other points of contact from other kits that included S.S lines. These are like saw's and over time will eat through anything. AE's teflon coated lines not only eliminate this issue but also add a great visual aspect to the equation.

Setrab Oil Core:


It is the design of the core that sets our kit apart from the rest.

We needed this core to do 2 main things.
Keep engine oil temps safe under high heat applications, yet still be able to bring a cold engine up to proper 180' deg. for everyday street driving.
To obtain "the best of both worlds" we needed to further look into the cores design.
Unlike Conventional coolers that run lateral row's, our core run's vertical row's.
By doing this we get superior rapid high heat cooling by spreading "Hot" oil over a much larger surface area compaired to a lateral core of the same dimensions.
The much shorter vertical rows also provide much less pressure drop over a lateral core design.
Having minimal pressure drop in turn allows the cold engine oil from a cold start to easily get up to proper running temp with no lag what so ever unlike conventional large Lateral core oil coolers.

As you can see we put a ton of thought into this and are very pleased with the resluts. We have tested this kit, on and off track, drifting, autocross and everyday street driving. This upgrade is a MUST for any Z owner that does any sort of aggressive driving. N/A, Turbo, or supercharged Z's this is the kit for you.

Don't make the mistake of buying a kit that is too small or so big your car never gets up to temp on the street.

Get the Best of Both Worlds here with the AE Performance Oil Cooler kit.

Kit includes all of above + hardware and installation instructions.

Core size w/ bracket is : 22'x7'

MSRP: $1100.00

The370Z Member Special: $995.00 + Free Shipping for the first 5 kits in the US.

Act Fast!

Hard to get a concept of the size, what is the surface area and thickness of the core?

Regardless of the reduced pressure drop it would unfortunately still need a thermostatic plate or bypass for the cooler climates. There would be too much oil to air heat exchange unless you built a Modshack cover.

I do like the teflon wrapped lines though.

We actually sent one out to a customer we have in Ohio to test in cooler climates and all reports are exactally as expected A++, and no need for a theromstat.

I'm sure he'll chime in now that we have the official post up.

With the other kits on the market, they didn't give us anywhere close to the cooling expected, then switched to another company that runs a larger core and we had cold start warming issues.

We've hit the nail on the head with this kit.

I'll post a scale pic for you as well.

I saw it on Paul's car in person at the Redline Time Attack finals and fell in love. This WILL be the kit that goes on my car as well one of these days.

THIS would be a good Christmas gift for myself if I hadn't just bought wheels instead. 1,000 bucks is a little steep though..i understand that you get what you pay for but damn ! I trust AE no problem so when they say this is legit then this is more than likely legit. Will this get in the way of forced applications ?

I'd be curious to know if it fits on the Nismo with the chassis damper located in that same area.

Not at all, a big front mount Intercooler would be mounted much further forward. So clearance will be no issue.
But an absoulte must for FI applications. As hot as the VQ gets on it's own I can't imagine what a pair of Turbo's will do to the temps.

It adds about 1 qt.

For the Nismo Car's you do have to remove the front chassis damper. We say good riddens. lol.

I did have one customer tell me he did modify the chassie damper bracket to work w/ our kit but seems like alot of work for a part w/ little to no performance value.

Hey, awesome kit here. If I didnt already have one, I would have bought this. Do you have a part number for that core? I want to get some specs on it. Kit looks GREAT.
