And I think there's a member that mounted the oil cooler upside down in order to drain oil out, but again not required. I remembered somebody here says that even the vigorous GTR maintenance doesn't call for draining oil from oil cooler.

If dirty oil is a concern, just change oil more often, plus magnetic drain plug and filter mag.

Kn top of that, do oil analysis if you are really concerned about it.
yea i run the magnetic plug, first had a K&N filter and now i have the Nismo one from Z1. probably gonna go with a longer one this time just to see how it goes.

also i doubt i'll mount mine upside down. probably just regular as per the install instructions.
