one more thing.. if you are driving your Z on track should also consider getting a power steering cooler, at least keep it in mind when deciding on oil cooler placement

I second that idea. Even if you are just driving it hard on the street. I think our engine bays are much much hotter then a stock car and it starts to take it’s toll on components in there.

I have fried my Power Steering twice now. Once by burning a hole in the lines (too close to the trubos) and just recently I fried the pump. I am now upgrading the pump and have installed the Nismo R tune Power Steering cooler w/ bigger lines to prevent overheating and try to give the pump a little more breathing room.

I do drag racing so I don't think power steering cooling is required but it's a good idea to keep that in mind for placement
