I kinda hope it's oil:water like that one post in the locked thread says, although it may be a relatively crappy oil:water unit though (as mentioned in the other thread, perhaps just water running through a filter adapter plate). We already have good aftermarket kits for add-on oil:air. The stock water cooling system seems to have more than enough excess capacity to help out, and it would reduce warm-up times as well.

Yep. I think a cheap o:w would fix the car up where it could handle a couple hot laps, but still be driven in cool climates.

You gotta figure the unit would add less than $30 to nissans cost on the car, too
