They said if you don't track the z then you absolutely don't need to get this oil cooler but if you do track it then you should get it. That's from Nissan. End of story. It's your choice if you track or not . Period. Stop debating, there is no sense. You Ytack you get an oil coller, you don't track don't.

Which department/devision from Nissan (i.e. Nissan USA or Nissan Motorsports) inquiried about your 370Z oil temperature issues?

When I drove home from purchasing my 370Z from the Nissan dealership my oil temp increased to 240 degrees in a 35 mile commute. Outside temps varied from 89 - 93 degrees that day. Since then, my 370Z oil temperature during daily driving commute max's out around 220-230 degrees with the outside temperature between 87 - 93 degrees. One would think that living in Florida should be a testbed for oil temps/water temperature issues.

In order for Nissan to receive feedback on the 370Z oil temperature issue; I suggest logging your 370Z commutes by:

Daily distance traveled
Daily Outside temperature
370Z Water temperature
370Z Oil temperature
Average Speed of daily commute
Maximum speed/distance during maximum oil temperature of daily commute
Minimum speed/distance during minimum oil temperature of daily commute
Time(how long) duration of the maximum oil temperature
Current odometer reading of 370Z
Manufacture date

Anyone from Nissan is welcome to add to the bulleted list.
