Which oil cooler is the best?

glennsz · 10-28-2017, 10:49 PM

I kept everything the same from the first install in 2012 other then replacing the core. All hoses look fine after 5 years and I can put the unit 6" in front of the Z on jack stands to examine so there seems to be enough play/slack in the hoses. I don't see any rubbing on the unit. I'd post some pic's but not sure how. I'm just a "basic" member. I did install the Stillen brake cooler ducks which work great with the Z1 2 piece rotors up front with Carbotech pads. This oil cooler is a major issue I need to solve before next year as I was on my way to park my Z in a garage for the Chicago winter. All 4 bolts were tight when I pulled it out to inspect with nothing I could see causing any issues. It's like the row just expanded with to much pressure but I run the stock oil pump.
