it's not like the oil cooler is expensive or has downsides in non track use

this is why i got the 19row, it keeps my engine oil cool enough during everyday driving and even abit more spirited cruises like this sunday. On the track i would estimate it would last maybe around 7-8 laps before having to pull over for it to cooldown. It is a smaller oil cooler but it still allows for atleast double theo track time compared to the stock 3-4 laps before your car just refuses to go anymore. Personally i think its good to have it, saw it as a flaw in the car that needed fixing. I mean 220 F (105 C) normal oil temperature on a hot summer day is a bit too hot i would say. Now it stays at 180F (82 C) so its much much better. Better for the engine, prolongs the life of the oil as well. Keeping the engine cooler through oil cooling i would imagine improves performance/millage as well over the long term. Dont quote me on that one though, thats just an assumption.

Hey guys,
I am wondering how many of you are thinking about getting the oil-cooler and BBK, I am asking the shop that I got the rims from to give me a price, and I wanna see how many of us are getting so I can ask them for a better price. So far they give me very good price for the items I look for compare to getting from US. Regarding the oil-cooler, any brand you guys prefer? 19 or 25 rolls?? As for BBK, I got price from them for both Wilwood and StopTech last week, they can also order Brembo and AP Racing. Let me know if you guys are interested thus I can give them a quantity and ask for a group discount. -alcheng |

100% there's not enough of a market for these kind of cars any more. I work with a couple guys saying the same kind of things. The one guy even has a 240 (work in progress). But I just don't see it happening either.
Sidenote: sorry I couldn't make it to the cruise sucks being out of town for 14 days .....wish I could have been there. But sad to see it was another typical 50% turn out! I knew it would be cause it always is. Was that another 40th I saw in the pics?(I'm not sure cause I'm on my iPhone lol) pics looked good though! Miki nice wheels and stance, Z is looking good! I miss my Z!!!!!! Can't wait to go home and go for a drive!........I'll probably have to give it a good detail first though. It will have been sitting for 2 weeks by time I get home.
