So it's adding insult to injury. First they don't bother equipping the Z with an oil cooler -- this when every Z that they released to the press for testing and evaluation was equipped with hidden oil coolers. Then they have the audacity to penalize us if we decide to add our own.

I agree, but to keep everyone in perspective, "if" you live in a hot climate zone, you can hit 260 pretty easy with "non-track" driving....... I have done it twice and wasn't pushing the car that hard. I've stated this in another thread....... I don't want a freebie, just make something available for purchase (Nismo or Nissan Motorsports), and if installed by the dealer don't invalidate the warranty. Simple enough.
