All of that looks good but take out that Southbend and throw a Spec Stage 2+ (for daily like the southebend just better quality, mine is a Stage 3 not Stage 2+ and has lasted almost 55k so far) or throw a Cusco or an OsGiken Clutch in there.

As for the oil cooler I recommened the Mishimoto 19 row thermostatic oil cooler. My Z use to average 220F and maybe has grazed 200F when I been pushing and should be up in the 230F range when it was without the oil cooler.

And the CSC eliminator, is more for people who track the car a bunch because it is lightweight. If you want that go ahead but installation probably will be longer since its not a drop and replace like normal.
If you want something that's not an OEM csc go with an HDCSC.

Stay far, far away from spec. There is no warranty on the Hd csc with a spec because they will cause it to fail. Ask me how I know that.

And mishimoto is the worst possible choice for an oil cooler. Don't buy Chinese garbage. Do it right the first time.

I wasn't going to say it but yeah, that's absolutely right. I would/did use Setrab oil cooler.
