CSF is a solid choice, a few issues from some owners but CSF has tried to patch them up and help owners out.
On the thermostat end there is only 1 choice, the stock one is very good and the only true upgrade for a street car is the OEM 2008 g37 one. Between a CSF radiator and lower the fan kick on temp you will do a very good job. You can also look at upgrading the fans & shroud but only one option with that right now if you want plug n play other wise you have to order the fans & wire it yourself while also building a shroud to fit.

Ok...Thanks...
I think that's enough to swallow at the moment. ($$$$)
That's why I'm doing all the prep first....before the SC even goes in.

I'll probably hit you up again later...

Thanks again!!!

Who is a good vendor for the CSF radiator? is it vehicle specific?

1. z1 Motorsports 370Z upgraded CSF rad w/condenser and 30 mm thick core, factory/OEM fit.
It has new dryer, and lines. Am I safe to assume the OEM fan/shroud will all be good when this goes in?
2. z1 370Z/G37 34 row oil cooler kit, Oil sandwich plate adapter thermostatic, with protective hose wrapping and Setrab core.
3. z1 Red silicone hoses....

yes?

Like any aftermarkey part you might have to trim a little. I had to file off some of the fanshroud support to get the CSF to fit properly. Nothing major or anything to deter you from purchasing.

I also put something like this on my oil cooler- Spal Advanced Technologies 30100403 6.5in Pusher FanStraight 330CFM.

I wired in a control module that turns it on when oil temp gets to 220ish. We'll see if it helps not that it's getting hotter outside.

I will say the reason I upgraded mine was because chuck sent it over to me one day and my radiator was coming out of my car so it became one of those why not. For $30 and it is an OEM part lets give it a go.
I am still waiting on a company to supply a plug n play fan/shroud upgrade that can deliver.

I bought mine from Z1. The one for the Z fits Gs as well. There's nothing different about the Nismo.

Ok...Got my CSC from them.
And the oil cooler? 30 row? Stillen, or other?

theDreamer

I bought mine from z1 and they have been good support when I need help.

If you buy one, swap out the crappy washers they use with something more substantial. They degrade over time and start to leak.

You need the 7012, if memory serves me right. You won't be able to find one (new) locally. Just order it from Z1. Should be around $600.

Here is the specs for the radiator. I do not believe anyone in Houston keeps it in stock so I would just order it via z1 and have them ship it directly, they keep them in stock so it is quick (2 days top usually).

Mine is a 7012. Odd. Maybe the 7011 is the one for the 7at?

OP, I would think you could just get a 34 row Mocal or Setrab core and just reuse your existing stillen oil lines and thermostatic plate.
