Make sure you specify 12/10 as apparently the default is 10/8 even for the ER. I know all the original orders you placed for the ER's got shipped as 12/10 so I'm sure you know what you are doing.

I don't mind either way personally since its just for daily driving use, but I was always under the impression the ERs were off-the-shelf at 12/10. At least that was the original plan back when they were first released.

That's what I always thought as that is what mine are, but Scott @ RA confirmed with Pete that 10/8 is the default and the website info shows that as well.

Well for what its worth, after researching it seems the Swifts are the most thought out lowering spring on the market for the 370. They don't over-lower the car past the point where the suspension geometry starts to go to s**t and the spring rates are designed to work within the damper range of the OEM shocks, but still stiffer than stock. Not to mention Swift springs are just flat out better quality. Their actual rates are more consistent between a full set and they are usually lighter, plus they don't contort and bind under compression like others do.

Hey Mike I just picked up DSport magazine and I realized on the cover it said Redline Time Attack! I wondered if I'd see you driving the berk bmw but man I see a sweet picture of your Brilliant Silver 370z in action!
Says Buddy Club Street RWD Class Winner: Mike Bonanni | 370z | 2:26.548! Amazing time and congrats on yet another triumph! I noticed you do not have your rear valence so I'm assuming this was couple months ago. Sick driving in the rain! Kick *** and take names!

The 370Z finally hit its time for an oil change so after a few weeks of sitting on my brand new 25 row Z1 Motorsports oil cooler kit, I finally installed it!
The install instructions were very thorough and easy to follow. The install process was also fairly simple if you take the time to do it correctly. I opted for the 25 row which is their middle kit, they have one smaller and one larger. I chose the middle one basically because I live in Vegas where it gets crazy hot in the summer and although the smaller one would have surely been fine for daily driving, the larger one gives me a bit more freedom to do some spirited driving and probably even a track day or two. So far the thermostatic sandwich plate works well, oil doesn't take forever to get to temp and stays static anywhere between 180 and 200 depending on if I am moving or in traffic. I haven't done any real hard driving with the kit yet aside from the occasional 1st to 4th pull. A+ kit with cool features and quality components for a fair price. Had a good customer service experience with Z1 when ordering, shipping was fast, packaging was excellent, and as mentioned the instructions were overly detailed which isn't a bad thing.
