Default G37s Willow Springs 2/5/11 Track Day, the fun and the Aftermath

Sup 370z guys, i figure i'd post this here too since u guys are more in the this scene than the guys over at the G forums. So I took my G37s to her third track day out to Willow springs (Big Willow). It was our first time at that track and it was scary at first but after the first confidence building session it was alot of fun afterwards.

Mods:

Stillen Oil Cooler kit
Hawks HP+ brake pads
Super Blue brake/clutch fluid

THE FUN:

So the first session out there I got fast lap of 1:50 but my last session i managed a 1:45.6 sec fast lap. However i feel i could have bet that time if it wasen't for a Corvette that passed me on the straight and then slowed me down around the twisties. I past a few Zs a few past me, and a older red Z w/ a corvette engine obliterated past me, lol. It was def a good time.

The BAD:

LOST POWERED STEERING. So i didnt lose it completely its still there at times usually at speeds, the fuild level is at between max/min and there looks like there is no leaks. I did a quick search and found a member w/ the similar problem and he got a seal replaced on the power steering oil pump replaced, at the dealer. So it sounds like i'll have to do the same, however i have a problem. The Stillen Oil cooler kit. So I'm assuming i will have to go back to stock so they dont blame the oil cooler kit for the problem since the Stillen kit relocates the power steering radiator. However i cant got completly back to stock because i remplaced the hoses that come out of the lil power steering radiator for longer ones and i need to find those two hoses. Oh, and a plastic cover next to the wheel wheel since i cut a hole in it to pass thru the oil lines anyone know where i can get theses???

Conclution:

Anyone know where i can get these hoses (universal G/Z part i think) and plastic cover (G part)?

or

U guys know a mod friendly Dealer that i can take my car to? ( i'm in the LA area)

Thanks
