Aftermarket Oil cooler
 

Hey guys,

Tried search, but couldn't find any definitive answers. What's the general consensus on an aftermarket oil cooler for a '12 nismo. I'm wanting to start some HPDE and this is on my list among other things. I saw the Mishimoto option and it looks promising but pricy.:ugh2: Z1 any good? I'm also not too sure on the difference of 19 row vs 25 row. Any info/ advice is appreciated.

Z1, no MiSHITimoto.

25 or 34 row

Thanks DE. Ive read enough of your posts to trust your opinion

Slight hijack, if you don't mind...

I am in the same boat as to wanting to track the Z and would like to know if these oil coolers would fit with the Stillen Gen 3 intake installed or if there might be some conflict with the real estate up there.

I've installed both with no problem.

You have a Nismo, I think you have to swap your front dampener around or something

Fast Intentions FTW

Z1 34 row cooler and be done with it. And yes, it fits with the G3's. Read my journal. ;)

Z1 or FI. I do like the FI Teflon braided lines. I have used them before and they flat out last.

I have used both Fast Intentions and Z1 Oil Cooler Kits......both are good quality. Dont waste ur time with the 19 row. ...25-34 is where u wanna go....size will depend on ur weather conditions and how hard u track/drive ur car. I initially did 25 row Z1....but after tracking the car I found myself having to cool the car dwn a little before going back out again.....25 ROW would be good for daily and some spirited driving with very mild tracking in hot weather.


Then again I live in an area with tropical hot and humid weather year round....so upgraded to FI's 34 ROW and happy with it. I can do back to back non stop track runs and the oil temp never goes past 200°

As far as install in the Nismo....Vipor did a very good DIY......and yes u will have to flip ur Damper upside dwn for the 34 row to fit.

You know, I forgot FI made one too.

Z1 or FI FTW
