Default Oil Cooler Question

Hey folks,

I'm just kind of curious as to what are the more popular brands for oil coolers out there. I have been doing some looking around and I know ARC, stillen, nismo and some others make some specific kits for the Z. And I have seen a universal kit made by GReddy. So just kind of interested about looking into this, and wondering what your guys' thoughts are. Thanks!

-Paul

I have the stillen kit and am happy with it. As the others said, you can get the same parts individually.

The Nismo oil cooler has long been discontinued. I personally went with the HKS Oil cooler because it also came with an oil filter relocation kit.

I can take pics of it in the box but I don't think that will help you. I'll probably install it in a few weeks when i get a chance.

Yes, we can get them but no we don't have them in stock. They are all made to order from HKS Japan.
