I did this same mod on my Z32, but I don't think I would do it on my Z34. I had the engine apart and wanted to minimize hosing and complications in the bay - the bay that has one of the worst reputations in the world. The engine (I mistyped coolant here) is approximately the same temperature as the coolant inside of it. Therefore, the metal TB is roughly the same temp by means of the aluminum heads or the coolant itself. Sure, I certainly think it will take longer for them to warm up without the routing, but running on a cold engine is frowned upon anyway.
