HOWEVER........many 370z owners downshift and/or shift at a high RPM hiting 4-5k almost every shift ( I dont know why but its gonna kill the engine). If you're planning on shifting under 4k and not downshift, I can guarantee you YOU DO NOT NEED OIL COOLER.

If you're one of those obnoxious driver (always having your engine in high RPM, downshifting for no reason), then get the oil cooler

And of course install a oil cooler if you're gonna plan on tracking your car.
believe it or not, for whatever reason driving with the AC on causes the oil temps to go down.
