Sacrifice front body damper for a track worthy oil cooler?

Hi guys. I have an '09 NISMO and want to install a track worthy oil cooler. I have done a lot of reading on the forum and from what I can tell I would have to sacrifice the front damper to accommodate an oil cooler that would withstand the stress of track days. Any suggestions? Thanks, Zilla.

the setrab 25 row 9 series has a rating of 42,000 btu/hr and their 34 row 6 series (all the popular 34 row kits come with this) has a rating of 43,000 btu/hr

(Wet Sump Parameters include: oil flow rate, 5gpm; 20/50 engine oil or similar; 130ºF ITD; 60mph airflow.)

Don't need to sacrifice the damper, just flip it around. I have a 34 row and still have the front damper on.

I got the Z1 34 row oil cooler. All I did was to flip the damper around so that the damper end is on the right side, and added a washer under the bracket for it. ;)
