Yep. I'm getting:
- 25-row oil cooler
- Thermostatic oil sandwich plate adapter (because the site said, "It is highly recommended that a Thermostatic sandwich plate adapter be purchased when installing an oil cooler onto a street driven 370Z. As important as it is to keep high oil temperatures under control, it is just as important to maintain the proper temperature to ensure the highest possible lubrication.")
- Protective hose wrapping
- Setrab core
After reading about the options on the Z1 site and doing a little research here, those seemed to be the best choices for me.
Also, Z1 called me yesterday to say that their lines are out of stock: they're getting new ones on Friday, and they're a little different than the usual Z1 lines in that they're a little more durable. No additional cost, and hopefully everything will ship tomorrow!

I can cut down my current one and will happily give it to you to place on your cooler to figure out if it works for you. No charge! Just helping a Z owner out.

I appreciate it, but I'll pass...at least, for now.
I'll wait and see what next winter brings, but will know to keep an eye on the oil temp once the outside temps start dropping.
