Oil-temp - Only a problem for those that track their car. Sure, it's slightly higher in some Z's than what the 2004.5 350z's ran under normal conditions (from what I've read), but daily street driving we should see zero negative impact. For tracking, an oil cooler not being an option or even standard is more of an issue.

Well, there is the "issue" of hearing clunk-clunk-clunk when depressing the clutch in first gear while the engine is under load. This has been highly discussed in several threads on this site, and I didn't think that it was resolved by adding mileage. Nonetheless, the transmission is a GREAT transmission, and the clunk-clunk-clunk noise can be avoided. Its just not something you would expect from a $40k sports car. Although I guess it isn't... it is a $30k sports car with $10k in options lol.

EDIT -- ths may not be the MT anyway now that I think of it. Wasn't the issue that I'm referring to somewhere in the vacinity of the clutch/flywheel? If so then correct, this is a perfect MT!
