2012 Z Factory Oil Cooler - PIC AND PART NUMBERS INSIDE

I guess the big question is... Does it work? One guy on another thread said it does not but he was running in the engine so...

Yeah, that was me. I am now at 1000 miles and just had my first oil change and I am still seeing very high temps for even moderate driving around town--220+. Nothing actually overheating, but there is no way that this OEM cooler is up to the challenge of FI or track days.

What temperature do you think your coolant is? What you are seeing is normal. My z06 had the same type of cooler and at idle oil would hit 210 or so. Around town, similar, and on the freeway 195. Just like my 370.

It is complete CRAP.

And... You cant remove it.
only option is if there is a way to add another aftermarket over the top
of the OEM water cooled POS.

Nissan really screwed the pooch on this one...
