G37S GTM Stage 2 Twin Turbo Build by Project X

SPOHN

I have to ask why do so many people that go FI and even the ones that don't get these small oil coolers? You think you would worry about how to warm the oil from being under cooled rather than having a small cooler that is not going to work?

Looking good Jared

This has grabbed my attention... Please elaborate.

I think for the 'average' boosted VQ it is just street driven so the ability to warm the oil temp faster is better as with a 25 row cooler is enough to keep you below 220 daily with some occasionally heavy foot driving.

Thanks bud, hope to see you around this season!

Thank you, I definitely will! Haha, after I calm of course!

Haha, yeah... I got that question over on the G37 forum as well... it have a couple of lifts but I did not capture the car while it was on it... the pics with the motor coming out are actually on a lift, just not all inclusive pictures I guess.

Haha, start? Thanks, like my wallet really needs to hear that at this point!!!

Damnit Larry for still getting more attention than me on my build thread (kidding, I added pics with that car in it for a reason)... yeah, that Z33 is on bad machine! They are making custom over fenders and they are going to be gorgeous and most likely for sale once they are done. It is the shop car and the owner who is doing this custom work recently broke his foot unfortunately so it as been delayed... I will keep you guys updated on it though as well!

Thanks man!

I am on a full UAS air ride system over my KW-V3 coils so I will be able to adjust the stance for function for sure... I just need to get some more meat on the bones of those wheels now!

Thanks bud!

I have no intention of tracking this car any time soon so I am hoping this oil cooler will be enough for this setup... I honestly barely even drive this car but I do understand what you mean... the problem is that there is very little room for a large oil cooler with most F/I kits so most people build to their need and I am hoping that this is the extent of my need for now. In a couple seasons when I am ready to let go of this being a show car and start running some track days, I will re-consider this setup for sure.

Thanks Tev!

^ this... thank you for helping elaborate. It is always better to be safe than sorry with F/I builds but again, application needs to be considered. I should have built out my motor and could have gone with a much larger radiator and oil cooler... I am jsut going off of what has been done already and it is my hope that I do not need this at this stage of my build.

Kingbaby

goes without saying big builds are always awesome...thanks again for the info

definitely hope so. I try to attend most events. Not sure I can make the UTI torque meet. I'm thinking of doing Another Level though.

... Just got off the phone with the shop... my car wont be there either... I told them it is more important that they take their time and do it right though... said they will send some more update pics... I will update the thread when I get them.

I will still be at the meet though as I am helping out at it.

ZMan8

bummer on car not being ready, but you're right with them making sure it's done right.

Hopefully it doesn't rain. I think i saw 50% chance.
