Z1 Motorsports 370Z Oil Cooler Kit

Introducing the Z1 Motorsports 370Z Oil Cooler Kit *Customizable*

Check out the link above. My oil cooler install was done by Titan Works in Santolan / Mariposa area. I think the midsize Setrab oil cooler should suffice.

IF I'm not mistaken, the Nismo 370Z front bumper makes it more difficult to install a single oil cooler(?), at least, this was the case for a friend's white Nismo (see link below, contact him for details). He ended up installing a twin oil cooler setup (2 small oil coolers) and spending around 100k or so. He got his oil cooler stuff from Emperor so it's all branded HKS (read: expensive).

My install cost me less than 20k peso and has worked pretty well. I just got the B&M oil cooler (Welcome to B&M Racing & Performance Products!) and an OBX thermostatic sandwich plate from a friend and Titan fabricated my oil cooler mount and customized the length of my oil cooler lines. (see thumbnails above). If you're the type who doesn't want to get caught dead with unheard of stuff locally (baka pagtawanan ka), then perhaps spending megabucks for a HKS setup might be for you. In my case, I just KNOW these big brand tuners merely buy oem stuff then rebrand it as their own and package them nicely. I didn't want to pay for marketing and a nice box.

What is crucial in an oil cooler install is to inspect for leaks. Doesn't matter whether you have oil lines made of gold if they happen to spring a leak.
