I've seen temps as high as 270F before turning on the pump and fan. With the cooler, there is 3 liters of lube in my set up.

I have all of the SPL catalog on my Z. Solid diff bushings, sub frame bushings, etc. The diff bushings really didn't make that much difference in noise.
Since I will not track the car and the abuse only consists of acceleration pulls from a roll, could I postpone the diff cooler if I do get the Z1 finned cover and the Nismo GT L.S.D Pro or the upgraded diff may get hot without an aftermarket diff cooler?

Go with a Wavetrac, that is your best bet and cheaper overall since you don't have to have a cooler.
