Dropping the engine is not required, It is really a personal preference .

Oil cooler is to cool the engine oil, intercooler is to cool the the air charge, two different things .

Oil cooler is always recommend

is that a diff cooler right behind the rear end in the pictures as well, or is that how you placed the oil cooler because of the Double intercooler in the front?

Any pictures of the oil cooler and its fitment behind the intercooler? Wanted to get the GTM oil cooler because I would know it would fit behind the GTM intercooler.

Yes, we already have a 60 mm rad in the works, stock rad is only 20 mm and also we have also developed upgraded lower and upper hoses .

when I saw the G37 GTM kit I was thinking the way this engine is configured it hides all the goodies. but now I am thinking when I get pulled over and the moron asks me to open my hood and sees only 2 stainless intake pipes, I won't have to take my car to the ref which is such a BEE-OTCH! i hate california. Nice work!

Don't worry about it...most cops don't know much. I was once pulled over in a friend's single-turbo '97 Supra. The officer swore up and down that there was a "nitrous tank" hidden somewhere thinking that the battery kill-switch in the back of the car had something to do with it. When that didn't work, his last resort was to remind us that a cone air-filer is illegal and he should put the stock air-box back on.
