Thank you....... I never said it was & he has a '10 Nismo. '12 is where the factory started put the oil cooler if I'm not mistaken.

If I am reading right, this thermostatic plate here:

Oil Cooler Thermostatic Sandwich Plate Conversion Kit

the actual thermostat is located in the sandwich plate between the filter and where it attaches to the engine, right? Also if I do have the Nissan motorsports cooler, am I going to run into any problems with the hoses themselves not working with the different fittings provided in this kit?

I got the kit form nissan for free and installed for free. When I went to change to the thermostatic sandwich adapter I ran into the hose problem. Nissan did it *** backwards with their hoses so you won't be able to use them. What you need to do is contact z1 and order hoses and the mocal adapter plate from them. When you get the chance print out the installation directions and it will be self explanatory after that.
