Does anyone know how those fans flow compared to stock? More CFM?

Not even kidding these fans would fit perfect on my radiator. $100 more then cheap JEGS fans but they would most likely be worth it. They would flow less CFM though. I think the JEGS are rated at 1560CFM a piece. I wonder if the shroud would be the bigger benefit for my setup though....

1560 Max? These are rated to 2500max. They definately pull a lot more than the stock and I have not run into any problems running these. The Original Post has the wiring diagram link for it as well. It's also available in black for like $20 less. Link

Great job. I'm going to install the same fans on my AMS with a custom shroud.

In your search did you happen to find any sandwich plate adapters that also had ports for pressure and temp sensors? I can't seem to find one anywhere but ebay which scares me for parts like that.

I know Greddy makes the Temp Sensor sandwhich. I never paid attention to oil pressure because I already have one in the Z. Driver might be a better source to see what other Gs are using... Oh yeah, driver is down.

Yeah I don't know what to do...

I found a decent looking oil cooler kit on ebay that has the plate with two 1/8" ports for sensors but I'm scared to buy an oil cooler on ebay.

Per Z1

This allows you to quickly and easily install an oil temperature and/or oil pressure gauge to your 350Z or G35 without having to drill and tap for sensor locations.

?? It may work.

Oh Tim, which fans are you talking about. The ones from Summit like mine or the ones from Jegs like Quamen?

I got a set of FAL's too. I was looking at the dual Spal ones but they are just too much $ for what I use my car for.

What do you guys think? I know it's not the best but anything would help and I'm not planning on getting a $400 oil cooler.

I pieced my oil cooler together. I suppose you can run the Temp/Pressure sensor adapter and the oil cooler adapter together. May want to RTV the hell out of it for safe measure though.

The fittings were relatively cheap (Checkers/Kragen auto parts for Russell fittings) and same for oil lines. I'm just weary of ebay parts. Unless you know specifically what is in the kit.

yes you can according to Dave

You can also keep the warmer/cooler on. I have two sandwich plates (one Greddy for temp and pressure sensors, and one Mocal thermostat plate for my oil cooler), and the stock warmer/cooler. Clearance is a bit tight when changing the oil filter, but still possible.

What do you need? I haven't really changed anything up in quite a while.

Are you sure you don't mean GTM shroud and cooling fans? Of all the cooling mods that I have done, external oil cooler, pathfinder rear cooling mod, Koyo 38 mm radiator, the GTM shroud and SPAL fans with the SPAL PWM controller has made the biggest difference. My Z would normally run 205F to 215F before and now never gets above 195F.
