Another bit that didn't make production is an engine oil cooler, a $780 part that Nissan recommends for any Z-car that will see track use, because the electronics put the engine into limp-home mode with a reduced rpm limit as soon as they detect potentially destructive oil temperatures. The Nismo Z we drove had the cooler fitted, as does our long-term 370Z. Nevertheless, the production Nismo 370Z will not get one — an odd oversight in a performance model.

WTF?!? How is this possible... for any1 thinking about getting one now, make sure to get a $780 discount so you can purchase 1 for your car!!! OMG OMG OMFG.. I'm going to have to call Nissan Corporate to save them from public embarassment.

IIRC the Nismo 350z didn't have a limp-mode (for high oil temp's) nor did it have an oil temperature gauge. Who knows if they were actually overheating or not.
