In the installation picture (of the Nissan Motorsport oil cooler) it looks like the crash bumper needs to be removed (and I assume re-installed) in order to install the cooler? It also looks like the crash beam will then cover about 40% of the top half of the oil cooler when it is re-installed? If I'm mistaken please correct me. Our race oil cooler is designed to be mounted directly in front of the crash beam and the crash beam does not need to be removed or modified in order complete the installation. There is also no air restriction from the crash beam as it does not get near the front of the cooler.

We will be installing the race cooler on our car shortly. We still have some testing of other parts to do first but this installation is definitely a priority. I will have more photos and detailed explanation of this as soon as we complete the installation.

Please do not take this post as derogatory towards the Nissan Motorsport oil cooler. Just trying to offer a little more information for those looking for their oil cooler.
What other parts?

Kyle, has this new race oil cooler been fully tested yet?

Very promising product, although I am sitting on the fence for the time being until I hear more of testing results.

Will this race cooler be suitable for street and track or is it strictly plumbed (geared) for track only?
