Will this hurt the life of my engine?

its amazing how people get paranoid about 370z oil cooler.

aftermarket oil coolers are for people that RUNS TRACK. And NOT for daily bases.....unless youre doing some serious downshifting or just like to shift at very high RPM (people who dont know how to take good care of their engine)

You'll be fine even at 100+ degree weather without an oil cooler. If our cars cant even handle in that heat, 370z would not have been produced in the first place.

So dont worry about aftermarket oil cooler, give it a break already jeez.....

I am going to have to disagree with you there bud. I live in NC and the weather can get up to the 100s throw in the humidity and you might as well be in Iraq. I understand not beating a dead horse but at the same time the issue of high oil temperatures would not have been brought up if they were not true.

I agree. People get crazy just because they can see the oil temp. Unless you are running over 280 degree's daily, I don't think you have anything to worry about. If it is getting higher than that on the street, I'd contact Nissan corporate, because that shouldn't be considered normal... as long as you aren't driving like you are on the track.
