[RESERVED FOR FUTURE EDITS AND PICTURES]

First upgrade I did was getting an oil cooler installed. Hawaii and this engine have one thing in common...its hot! I heard about some of the problems with the engine getting hot; but after 2012, Nissan included a cooling method to help with high oil temps. Well, I went ahead and bought the 25 row Z1 Oil Cooler.

I thought "yea that outta do it...but it only helps when you have forward motion. Which lead to my next upgrade. I figured ventilation would be the best thing. I was looking at cutting the stock hood and giving it vents but like most people, I was feeling lazy. I went with the Fly1 Motorsports Street Hood with the Z1 hood struts. Came out great!
