Installed Z1 Oil Cooler

I'm just curious. As a new 2016 Nismo owner, I thought I didn't have to worry about oil temps due to factory cooler.

The thermo plate somewhat isolates the cooler and prevents drainback as it's routed through the filter, which is a Purolator that has a more robust anti-drainback system.
Also, with the ports down, makes it much easier to get all of the old oil out during an oil change. With the ports up, you're leaving almost a quart of dirty oil in the cooler that you need to deal with getting out somehow.
