pretty much any vendor here can assemble a good one (the use of a thermostat for the engine oil is mandatory) or you can shop around (if you know what you need) and save some cash.
Anyone know of any other coolers compatible with VQ35HR's (Dont know if there's a difference in oil coolers between HR's and DE's) ?

It was a very pleasant experience to be honest. The Z does have a manuel mode in which it doesn't upshift itself if it get's close to the limiter like some bmw's do. It also blips the throttle and rev-matches on the downshifts and with my valvebody upgrade it does shift up and down faster than stock. And it was kind of nice not having to worry about heel and toe downshifting when I was trying to learn the track and the lines I had to take. However, for the ultimate experience the stick would be more fun but the auto is not dead boring and the shifting doesn't ruin the whole experince. Now if it didn't rev-match on the downshift, then that would be annoying. And there wasn't much shifting at all in this circuit, I was in 2nd and 3rd gear the whole time. I was almost redlining 3rd on the straights and was in 2nd for almost every turn. Very fun day to say the least, can't wait to go back
