I think this would be a good solution for those of us with moderately high oil temps but do not track the car enough to benefit from spending almost $1,000 on a cooler. I'm aware that a pan spacer is available but from the install pics, it appears there is a piece of metal in the way which requires some cutting / shaving. Anyone interested? I'm surprised Moroso hasn't considered the Z. I think a lot of people in both the 370Z and G37 community would benefit from this.

if it's just a cost issue. and u don't mind adding an oil cooler. Mishimoto oil cooler kit

Why not just an oil pan spacer? Its cheap and effective. I had one on my 350Z, but since I just ordered all the parts for Modshack's oil cooler setup and that adds a quart, I will probably pass on it for now.

You'll be nice and cool now Mike. Did some hard running up in the hills of WVA a few weekends ago and couldn't get it past 225!.....

The pan spacer doesn't have the baffles that usually come with the Moroso pans which are used to prevent oil starvation during hard turns. Prob not a big issue but since I'm taking off the pan anyways, I'll prob just do a full pan swap if they make one.

Also, on someone elses post on the Mishimoto cooler, if its a cheaply made cooler I'd rather not run it. The lines could be too thin affecting oil pressure and flow, could leak, etc.
