34 row won't be overkill here in texas, you know how the weather is super bi polar here but that's for damn sure as SOON spring is on the way get ready for some Heat let alone have a few track days your gonna wish you would have gone with the 34 row instead of 25. and when I upgraded on the 34 row first hand I couldnt have been more gratefull on anything I've purchased on my Z. If I'm not mistaken I think I made a thread asking the same thing and chuck convinced me on 34 row for the same reason of Texas HEAT Hope it Helps, also btw knowing texas weather even if you have the 34 row there's no worries during winter being overkill (well at least I've noticed that during this winter season.)

This brings me to my next question (albeit maybe a stupid one)... looking at pics of the 34 row it looks fairly tall, so will the extra rows even do me any good if they're hiding behind the bumper?

Can anyone who has either a 25 row or a 34 row comment on this i.e. how much (if any) of the cooler being blocked by the stock bumper?
Wrong....a 9 series is WIDER than a 6 series core.

The issue with a 9 series is that it will not tuck neatly between the core support openings. A 6 series will.

A 34 row core will hold more volume. If you question a taller core and its performance....then ask yourself why Nissan put such a large radiator .

The answer comes down to velocity of the air entering the facia, the ducting around the opening and a few other variables.

The size of the core which YOU need is also not clear cut. Your driving style will have alot to do with the size core that you need. In addition to your enviornment, fascia design and so forth.

I'm afraid I'd be asking for trouble if I used anything else.
Ya then I would go for the 34 row
