Yeah, i'm taping the grille in front of where the cooler is mounted. It seems to help alot.

Hey Thanks for all the great tips everyone!

If you track or even thinking about it. 34 row.

I track and run a 25 row in NC, it's done fine. Oil temps get to about 220/230 max. That being said it wouldn't hurt to go larger (unless it blocks off the radiator too much). With the 25 and an thermostatic plate I still have to block it off in the winter for the OEM gauge to read anything.

I have the 34 row NIssan Motor sport oil cooler, and it works great at the track, and the hot Georgia summers. I block all but about an inch or so for the winters here and it only gets up to around 180-200 during normal DD conditions.

I originally got a 25, but it couldn't handle the track temps so I took it off in favor of a 34.

Same, I DD my car year-round and track. In the winter even with a thermostatic plate the needle won't move. I tape over part of the front grill and get 180* perfectly.

But then EVERYONE I work with or park near asks who hit my car, why I taped up my car, and if I know there's trash stuck on the front of it.

I use black painters tape. You wont notice unless it peels off.
