Yes, water lines can be coupled, and it will just cycle through. There is no thermostatic plate. I could not find a low profile oil filter take off plat with a thermostat.


EDIT:

It appears that an inline thermostat can be added to the system. It would be about $130, including the extra short hose that would be needed to go form the new oil filter location to the thermostat.

I have a G37 6MT Coupe and I hope it FITs because I am so getting this kit once i save up a bit. It's going to be winter here soon. this will be a nice winter/spring project.! I hope you are still making them when the time comes!

ps. recommendation on clutch? I read JMac88 running Specialty Z 6-puck. Is that on stock flywheel?
I hope to test fit this on a G37 in the spring. I am very very positive that it will be a direct bolt on just like with the Z.

I would think, particularly for people up your way, you would definitely want a thermostat. Want to get the oil up to temp as fast as possible. Do you have info on the in-line part you found?

These cars are not being driven up here during winter, and I will look at the whole thermostat idea in a couple of days when I do another install. Sorry I do not have a part number for the unit I had found.

It was rated to flow 20 gal/min, and open at 180deg F.
