Is it necessary to ger an Oil Cooler?

Oil coolers are usually on sale during black friday and whatever folks call their "summer" sale

If you wanna save a few bucks, wait till around july. I think Z1 offered the 36 row for the price of the 24 row or something like that

Good call. I was gonna say wait to black Friday but that's a long ways away.

I have the Stillen kit. The only thing I'd say is get a Setrab Core.

See? Can't you get the Setrab core or the Mocal one from them? besides that, buying a different sized filter isn't a big deal. Just remember the size like the size of your tires or what kind of oil you use in your engine. It's really not a big deal.

My understanding is that Z1 stopped offering Mocal cores for the 370Z because they would burst; couldn't deal with the high oil pressure on startup.

Mocal is still an option on their website.

I had their gold series core, but it failed after about 4 years. I just installed a new Setrab series 6 34 row.

I use WIX filters and I haven't had any issues with them so far. No leaking issues or anything like that.
