i would recommend a 25 row oil cooler if you do some tracking. 19 row will be good enough to run it hard once in a while. idk if you're willing to fork out 700-800 for the Nissan oil cooler when you can get a cheaper kit that works the same for a lot less lol. installing a oil cooler will not void warranty unless your dealership are ******. good luck with it!
Right, that is why I am asking. I don't know price, also not shure how this cooler works and installs. Could you please provide this info?

how it works is there's a sandwich plate that screws onto your existing oil filter location and the oil filter will screw onto the sandwich plate. there's 2 fittings on the sandwich plate which will divert oil to go through the cooler lines into the cooler and forced back from the cooler to your filter, it's pressurized so it'll circulate fine. check out my oil cooler installed thread so you can get a rough idea of how it's installed.

I was just reading through this the other day:

Modshack DIY: Oil Cooler (scratch built install, lottsa pics).....>. - Nissan 370Z Forum

You will probably have to modify your install a bit for the G37 but all the components will be the same, except for maybe hose lengths of course. But looks like you can DIY for around $300. I'll be doing it this winter.

^^^^ That lol. I'm not doing anymore track days this summer so I can wait till there is snow on the ground to tear it apart again. Coilovers, oil cooler, maybe intake and exhaust are coming this winter.
