The trigger he was about to drop on February 26th? I think he went with another kit since.

I'm kinda guessing the answer no. I may be becoming the first guinea pig soon, we'll see later in the day.

So Wstar, did you end up ordering the GTM Kit? I'm interested in your experience if you do end up buying it. Still waiting for my car, so it will be a while before I will acctually get one, but an oil cooler is on my wish list as I want to do some track days.

I am about to get one as well - so all i need is the 380$ unit? Thinking about stopping @ ZCG to get it taken care of one of these days...

No, I didn't end up using this.

GTM:
1. Can the swivel ends be replaced with 90 degree ends?
2. Will this affect the oil flow?
3. To confirm, the themostatic connection comes with the unit at 380, correct?

George,
Did you guys finish the dual oil cooler kit yet and will it be in the way if I install your turbo kit?
TIA,
Ernie

This is something that's crossed my mind with all of the available oil cooler options: it doesn't seem like any of them are going to be compatible with a good-sized intercooler for super/turbo-charger applications. My guess is people who put on intercoolers are going to end up just moving their oil/trans/ps coolers smack up against the radiator and finding new ways to fasten them in place.

There is plenty of room between the AC condenser and the IC. As long as you do your oil cooler similar to the way its mounted on the NISMO car, you'll be fine. There isn't any room in front of the IC w/ out hacking up the bumper cover though, the IC sits pretty much flush w/ front end.

here's a retarded question, but it was bound to happen. Does the NISMO version in fact come with an oil cooler?
