modifying 7AT need some advice on mods

hi,

I have a stock base 370Z 7AT that is my DD. I'd am modifying it so it can also handle the track safely. The engine will be NA + all breather mods and a tune. I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of what mods need to be done to keep the tranny safe. I'd like to be able to drive the car hard and still keep it as a DD.

Is a tranny cooler in order? I prob wont get a valvebody but am what else needs to be done that'll help the 7AT handle the extra power and aggressive driving.

I try not to use WOT in the upper gears 5,6,7. I don't launch at red lights. I do like to occasionally drift + power slide. Any advice driving to increase the longetitivity of the 7AT.

And could anyone point me in the direction of a reputable tuner. I live 120miles north of Sacramento, CA on the I-5.
