Or ... did I miss something in between?

(I've got both an oil cooler and transmission cooler on my GMC Yukon. 5.7L, pure 1950s technology like the Atlas rockets -- designed with a big cabin space so you don't have to doff your cowboy hat on entering and able to haul a half-dozen heifers to market, yee-haw.)
I think its been confirmed the NISMO 370z will also not have an oil cooler.

Nor will Nissan sell the NISMO 370Z as an out-of-the-box competition/track vehicle.

For crying out loud guys - this is no different than any other manufacturer. Does Ford sell any of their cars (even the GT) warranted for competition use? No. How about GM? No. How about Toyota? No. See a trend here?

All of us bought a vehicle designed, built, and warranted for street use only. Nothing says you can't make mods to it for competition - but you'll probably void the some of the Nissan warranty (as you would similarly void some of a Ford, GM, Toyota, Subaru, etc., warranty). That's the way it's always been.

Now lets get back to discussing what oil is best for our Z's!

Oh, I agree with you totally. I was just clearing up some of the confusion.
