Sorry I missed this post, yes, I called the 1-800 number.

I'm baffled that the lack of an oil cooler, especially on the Nismo, can be accepted, on any level.

I believe if a company, such as Nissan, takes the time (which is money) to issue an "official statement" regarding one of their products; that directly illustrates the seriousness of the situation. Which leads me to beileve enough individuals/consumers have made it a point to address the situation with their dealers and/or service people to where it's been escalated to the coporate level. This alone should be enough for them to at least invesitigate the problem thoroughly.

Maybe, I'll never see 220+ plus degrees, but having test driven a nismo z, and having reaced 220+ degree oil temperatures on 3-4 mile test drives, at night and over 2 nights (back to back), leaves me concerned. MY 07' STI w/ mods doesn't hit 220+ when I'm "spiritedly" driving the car.

You can't deny the validity of my concern, as a member this morning posted, his auto 370's motor is going to be replaced at 2,100 miles-

The more people who make noise, the easier it is for Nissan to hear it, period-
