I will posting information and testing of the oil cooler here as well as a B&M shifter that will be going into the car this Monday the 27th.
I will be hitting the track (SOW counterclockwise) on May 9th and will post video and results for all parts involved here!
Driving the car home, I kept a close eye on oil temp and it never went above 210. I was driving it easy. I will give an update on a more "spirited" drive as well as an upcoming track day at Willow. I don't anticipate any problems.

PICTURES of my completed and installed Technosquare oil cooler unit.
UPDATE: I took the car out for some video shooting for exhaust sound clips and ran the car hard a few times getting up to 100 mph on one stretch. The
oil cooler seems to be doing it's job beautifully as the temps never got above
210-215 and with easy driving it hovered around
200.
UPDATE AGAIN: Took the car to Supercar Sunday today and decided to drive the canyon home. The oil temp fluctuated quite a bit but never got above 220. for the most part I was hitting revs of 4000 in 3rd gear through the canyon and it was seen as low as 180 on the city streets in stop and go traffic. Air temps were cool today and that no doubt always helps but I don't see any future problems with oil temps for my Z!
