Dustin,

First off, thank you for being so active on this thread and answering everyones questions as they come up. Its definitely helping my ultimate decision on which oil cooler to spring for.

I had a few questions for you and was hoping you could help me out. I've got an 09 Nismo and live in Socal. I haven't tracked my car too frequently yet as the last few times the oil temps have gotten pretty high. I'd like to go maybe 8-10 times a year. Given that temps in Socal where the tracks are located (desert type areas) can get rather hot, especially in the summer months (85-100F), I was wondering what size core you would recommend? I was leaning towards the 34-Row to be safe, but do you think this might be overkill? I do not plan on running FI of any type on my car. Also, I've read that the Nismo's have to have the lateral brace flipped 180 degrees. Will the 34-Row still fit with this modification?

Lastly, based on what everyone has said, it seems that getting the Thermostatic sandwich plate is probably a good idea since night time temperatures in Socal can drop pretty low. What are your your thoughts on this?
