MCR builds some nice cars, but the only GT3 killer I see is the GTR.

The Zed is a great car but one with a perceived weakness and a lot of attention has been brought to it. Engine oli overheating issues. Again this Japanese guy proved it. I just wonder how a 370z could handle Melbourne 45 degree celcius temperature in heavy traffic where you don't get out of 2nd gear for at leaSt 45 mins, with the air conditioning on. Will it overheat and be an embarassment on the side of the road. Here, this is a $70,000 car. NISSAN STOP BULLSHITTING AND MAKE A GOOD QUALITY OIL COOLER STANDARD, I KNOW I WILL NOT BITCH IF THE CAR HERE IN AUSTRALIA IS WORTH AN $1,000 BECAUSE OF IT. I'D STILL BUY IT.
Therevare many days here where the temp gets to over 40 degrees, some people drive with the air con on (i don't, too mechanically sympathetic, and maybe stupid) and push the car. In this situation will the car handle it or will it go into limp mode. Eliminate this flaw/perceived flaw and this will be an untouchable from critism car.

Quick conversion (I do F here in the states), but 45°C (113°F) is 100% safe on street roads, in traffic, with the AC on. I live in Texas, a few members here live in Arizona (even hotter many days than Texas), and zero limp mode problems on the street.

Anyone know the details on the ARC oil cooler? Does it have a thermostatic control valve that only allows the oil to the cooler after a certain temp?

I know I've heard that was a concern on some kits that flow oil to the cooler right away causing the oil to take a long time to warm up and oil is too cool after start up. Is my memory correct?

Thanks I guess that is reassuring. Makes one wonder how hard these guys push the cars to get them to go into limp mode.

15 to 20 minutes on a track will get you into limp mode, but that is pushing the car.

I can see this car being a GT3 killer, as stated in the article, the car isnt near finished, im sure when it is, the engine will be built along with some kind of forced induction, and im damn sure that it will cost far less than a stock GT3. And BTW, I live in Hell Paso, heat here averages 105-115 degrees fahrenheit in the summer, no overheating issues whatsoever, and i'm sure a few of them boys from Phoenix will tell you the same thing.

All I have to say about that 370 is............. DAYUM! It looks badass. I don't know about beating the GT3, but it would be fun to try.

Well..... it IS Japanese. I like rice with my curry chicken.

What does the GT3 look like? Sauerkraut?

For a streetable race car the GT3 looks clean.

This Z is typical rice... carbon fiber bits all over the place just for the sake of carbon fiber... decals... blah. Typical ricer crap!

I started a project to rice out my Z. I haven't purchased the CF parts yet but I got started with the decals. So far I am pleased.

"Rice." "Typical rice" at that. People throw that word around like they honestly know what they're talking about. To call ANYTHING from MCR (Matchless Crowd Racing) rice is commiting automotive suicide. Do me a favor and actually look them up first. Their Z34 is a toy compared to the power that shop can produce. Show some respect.
