It takes less than two days to build the car, less than a month for the boat to arrive. The rest is just dead time.

Just came back from dealership. I got a 2012 brochure. Read it and saw no mention of an oil cooler on the spec sheet. I did see mention of brake ducting. So I asked the parts guy for a price and he has no listing of said part.

I am going to start a new thread with this.

How funny would it be if my joke post turned out to be accurate:icon17:

This oil coolers becoming more elusive than the Chupacabra

:bowrofl::iagree:

First rule of the Chupacabra club........DON'T talk about the Chupacabra club! :shakes head:

After it's built it's all just dead time if you want to say it that way. Sitting on a boat for a few weeks, sitting in customs for a week, sitting on a train for a few days, sitting in a hub parking lot for a few more days, sitting on a truck for a couple days, then sitting in your dealer's lot until you pick it up.

I'm just trying to figure out how long all this stuff takes, from how many they build a day (or week or what ever), from the build date to actual delivery. It may take 2 days to build one as you say, but because of the way a production line works, that really doesn't tell us anything. It probably takes GM 2 days to build a single Chevy 1500 from start to finish, but off the line they crank out more than one a minute.

With less than 10,000 Z's sold per year, we know Nissan is not cranking out this car out like that. Kicking *** they are probably making 200 a week, tops. This is pure speculation on my part. That's why I'm trying to figure it out, so I know and don't have to speculate.

:cool:

Since we only know of 1 on this forum as of right now, we really need danegrey to snap us some pictures. As more cars filter in we will get a definitive answer.

let me know what they say.. I have the same issue... do you have HFC"S ?

I'm hoping for an a:w cooler cuz it's good for the car....Most cars run it.

The build time has always been 2-3 months, normal order:
Order
Wait a few weeks and then your car begin productions
Build time is probably a week or to, remember there are inspections and other onsite requirements before it ships out.
2 weeks on a boat for shipping
Customs is a week (was for mine)
Prep in the states, either LA or Tenn
Transit time
Delivery to dealership

The major wait period is the building as even though your order is placed it might be a few weeks before they even start your cars production, especially if the dealership just placed its order. Transit times vary because they wait for full loads before shipping, be on rail, 18 wheeler, etc.

I'm really excited for brake ducts. Hopefully the cooler will just be an extension to the stock one to save money
