It is my daily driver car so I don't od with it, however some days I'm feeling real good and I speed, some days I just wanna spend time with my Z so I drive a lot. Be out with the boys. MAYBE just MAYBE I may get it tuned and do more with it.
But no I don't be speeding everyday I don't bring it to the track.
But I wanna make sure everything is cool with my car so I don't mess it up the days that I be speeding and driving all day

A 25 row oil cooler should be more then enough for what you've stated so far and what seems to be your driving habits. IF you want to be safe since you still seem a bit unsure for future plans, get a 34 row cooler now with thermostat sandwhich plate. The plate will make it so that your oil still reaches minimum oil temps needed to function right but doesnt open till it reaches a certain point where it needs cooling. Do the 34 row without the plate and your oil temps may not ever reach minimum oil temps causing it to not reach the correct viscosity and protecting and lubricating the motor as it should.
P.S. The '12s do come with an oil cooler........its just a tiny little sandwhich plate that runs the coolant past the filter to help cool oil but its still no where near enough for anything extra. It'll get you through normal daily driving and very minor spirited driving. Extended periods of spirited driving and it still overheats. Just takes a little longer. I know........i have a '12 too lol and yes diddy, you can run the oem cooler with an aftermarket!
