Which are the top oil coolers?

germanattitud · 08-04-2011, 05:22 PM

I live in FL and use my car for everyday driving. I go to the track 3-4 times a month. I have some mods done and would like a good quality brand oil cooler. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

what do u consider lots of track time?

daisuke149 · 08-04-2011, 05:56 PM

3-4 times a month is quite alot compared to probably 99% of the people here

daisuke149 · 08-04-2011, 05:56 PM

but either way, being in floriday you should get the 34 row. I would say the z1 motorsports oil cooler. Its the one i have and ive not had any issues at all. Alot of members run the z1 oil cooler as well without issues.

No more costly than your other mods. But more important. I agree with Daisuke about the 34R. But he likes anything big.

Get the 34 row. I have the 25 row from Z1...it doesn't do much, but then again my car is complicated. Haha

germanattitud · 08-04-2011, 06:24 PM

what temps are u getting with the 25 row?

One_Quick_Z · 08-04-2011, 06:26 PM

GTM 25 row if you plan on going FI

germanattitud · 08-04-2011, 06:31 PM

34 row temp difference to expect?

cossie1600 · 08-04-2011, 06:55 PM

If you drag race only, you wont get much cool air into the cooler anyway. I am not sure if 34R will help that much more (not saying it doesn't help). Still, I would assume you get enough time to cool down the car anyway

germanattitud · 08-04-2011, 07:04 PM

when i do go to track, i race maybe 5 times in 5 hours but like i said lately its been twice a month. when i drive in city i see 220 so im wondering how much cooler it will be with 34 row.

daisuke149 · 08-04-2011, 07:17 PM

a 34 row will keep you around 180 normally

when I trakced in the hot temps last year with my cooler i saw 220 at the peak.

wh1te370z · 08-04-2011, 08:34 PM

I have Z1 25 row an I havnt seen any temps over 240. I've ran two 25 min sessions back to back this past weekend. I'd suggest goin w a 34 row if you can afford it so u never have to upgrade for anything you do to the car. For re most part. Unless u go absoultly crazy.
