Both.

 

Pics of your GTRS setup?

 

Pix Fo sure!!!!!! Plz.

 

id want both, but OIL cooler

 

Both, you can afford it if you DD a 550 HP Z

 

I guess I shouldn't say "daily driven". Its an 03 G35 Coupe and during the summer I drive it probably 3-4 days per week. The other days I drive my Miata, and if the weather is bad my Xterra.

Its not 550 whp yet but that is what I am aiming for. I am assembling the motor at the moment and once its back in the car I am going to turn up the boost until A) I run out of fuel with the DW600's or B) my clutch slips.

oil cooler but honestly...................... why not both can do both for under $600 if you look in the right place

 

also upgrade your injectors.......... thats really pushing it need around 60 psi base fuel pressure to hit that or push the injectors beyond 85% duty cycle which is a no no.

 

Alright so what are my options for oil coolers? What does everyone use? Does anyone make a nice kit specifically for the G/Z?

Since I am using JWT intercoolers and a stock bumper, I would probably want to mount it up behind the front grille.

 

I was on the fence about getting some 850cc injectors...

But at the end of the day I think I would be happy for a while with 500 whp. That's still about ~100-125 more than where I was at before. Then maybe next year I will drop in some bigger injectors, maybe a bigger pump, a new clutch, yadda yadda.

 

What are you laughing at? You don't think its possible with my setup? Or you don't think I know what I am doing because I don't have 5,000 posts?

 

cant say enough good things about my kit from rpw
http://www.racerpartswholesale.com/p.../OilCoolerKits

for the price it really cannot be beat. 24 row is all you need, even with repeated pulls at 530 whp(questionable dyno setup) i dont get past 190-195 ish

and the laughing from rod is just because FI gets alot of dreamer threads which i know he lurks in =P i think after seeing my car he wants to make his way faster too lol

 

Nice kit and attractive price too. Wish i saw that sooner.
