Sold out, already tried them. It's impossible to find the silver unless you find it randomly on ebay I'm guessing.

Any silver 370z 1/24 diecast models available?

I've been searching everywhere one the net with no luck, they have almost every color except silvers in stock. Anyone have a clue where I'd be able to find one?

The thermo sandwich plate is the piece the oil filter screws onto, correct? So if my kit came with a thermo sandwich plate, its basically a requirement for it to be installed, correct?

I'll see how it goes, the Z will be stored during the winter months. Will continuously driving the car taking 18 miles to reach 180 degree oil temp be bad for the engine?

The Z1 plate is rated at 169, so having it dip below 180 degrees on the hwy doesn't cause me to question its functionality, what is causing me to question it is the long oil warm up times.

I was under the impression that the thermo plate should allow me to not need a block off plate. I'm starting to second guess my purchase of this cooler, since I'll only be doing street driving.

Brandon,

I'm beginning to think either my thermo plate did not get installed or it's not working properly. This morning it was 64 degrees and it took 18 miles just for my oil temp to hit 180, and once I...

Isn't the Z1 thermostatic plate supposed to take care of that so I wouldn't need a block off plate? I'm planning on storing the car come winter time.

Is my oil cooler overkill for the street?

Oil has what in it? It's normal to have the bottom part of the dipstick be darker than towards the top part?
