Alright guys I have a 11 Nismo and am looking to get a hold of my oil temps. after much reading I had decided to go with a 34 row air cooler but after a long dinner convo with my GF's dad who works on composite formula cars he said I should go with a Oil:Water heat exchanger. after finding next to nothing about this for the 370z I did come across the AAM R-Line kit but I personally think that it is very over priced and with little reviews or experiences to read about im not convinced. I do know that I can put together the same kit with a bigger core for less money and it be just as good if not better. I also can get my hands on the Cores that my GF's dad uses. the issue there is plumbing (theirs is much bigger.. would have to change coolant flow route). If using a Oil:Water kit regardless of how I do it, would the stock radiator/cooling system be enough to take on this extra heat? Water is a much better source for transferring heat and if I am correct, a Oil:Water cooling system will not only get the car to operating temp faster but it will keep it at the coolant temp which is not much above 200 degrees. do anyone have any feedback on any sort of Oil:Water system they have used or seen other than the garbage stock 2012 system that clearly does nothing? I currently don't track my car but would like to in the future. I currently average around 220-240 degrees on normal/interstate driving and that or more during spirited driving. below are links to the kits and cores I am talking about. If this is in the wrong section please move. Thanks
