Oil cooler and short shifter
Hey guys and gals,
I'm looking for a couple of answers on a few questions. First question is, I plan on tracking the car a few times a year and I don't want to run into any trouble so I know I will need an oil cooler, the question I have is do I need a full out racing cooler or will the something like the Stillen street version do. Keep in mind that I may go with a super charger sometime next year, not for racing but more for the added HP and the WOW factor at the car shows. My next question would be which is the cooler of choice among the majority. Last question has to do with the short shifter ,which one is the majority choice here also. I value the opinion of all the forum members, so far I have not been steered wrong so for that I say thanks. Kindest regards and thanks again, Tom

B&M short shifter requires grinding down parts to fit and work properly Ams fits just like the stock and has adjustable heights and is cheaper. I just recently bought the Ams one cause it seems like a win win while the B&M requires more work and has less adjustability.

do the Modshack DIY, that way you can ensure its installed right and you can choose various sizes of the cooler you want and its way cheaper than the kits and the same quality. $270 for the DIY or $500 for a kit plus install. I bought a setrab cooler and all parts for $240, but I went with a smaller cooler than most kits come with but the $270 is for a 12 or more row cooler which is more than enough for an occasional track race.

The cooler size depends on how hard your drive and under which conditions.
If you are going to drive regularly on track with forced induction then you want one of the largest coolers. This means either Nissan cooler or the AE Motorsports cooler or a self kitted system using those Setrab cores.

If you plan on tracking your car a few times a year, I have to recommend our AE Performance oil cooler. We use only the highest quality parts for the kit. Here's a link to a review a customer just did! M.Bonanni's 370Z Project "Born Again" Regards, -Dustin
