24-Row Bolt-On Oil Cooler Kit for Nissan 350Z (03-08) & 370Z (09-17) | Track-Proven Cooling | Complete Drop-In Kit | Thermostatic | -10AN Lines | Protect Your VQ35/VQ37
Stop cooking your oil and save your VQ with this 24-Row Bolt-On Oil Cooler Kit built specifically for 2003-2008 Nissan 350Z DE/HR and 2009-2017 Nissan 370Z VQ37VHR, because the factory water-to-oil heat exchanger gets overwhelmed after 2-3 laps or one canyon run and lets oil temps spike past 260°F which thins oil, collapses viscosity, and hammers rod bearings while this track-proven 24-row bar-and-plate core drops oil temps by 40-60°F to keep you in the safe 200-220°F range all day, and it’s a true bolt-on kit designed around the Z33/Z34 chassis with a vehicle-specific sandwich plate adapter that replaces the OEM oil filter housing on DE/HR and bolts to the block on VQ37VHR, featuring a built-in 180°F thermostat so your oil still warms up fast on the street and won’t overcool in winter, and the kit includes a 24-row x 235mm wide x 50mm thick core with turbulated internal fins for max heat exchange mounted to a powder-coated CNC bracket that bolts directly to the crash bar with no drilling, cutting, or zip ties, and you get fully assembled -10AN braided nylon stainless lines with black anodized 90° and 45° swivel fittings pre-cut to the perfect length to clear belts, pullies, and sway bars on both 350Z and 370Z, and the sandwich plate includes 1/8" NPT ports for oil temp and pressure sensors so you can run real gauges without extra adapters, and the kit comes with a high-flow K&N-style M20x1.5 oil filter or works with your existing filter, plus all mounting hardware, vibration-isolating mounts, and detailed instructions, and it fits all trims including Base, Enthusiast, Touring, Nismo 350Z and Base, Sport, Nismo 370Z, clears stock and aftermarket intakes, and works with OEM bumpers or most aftermarket lips without trimming, and by keeping oil temps in check you get consistent oil pressure, prevent limp mode on HR/370Z, reduce blow-by, and extend engine life whether you’re street driving in Abuja heat, doing track days, drifting, or boosted, making this the single best reliability mod for any VQ35DE, VQ35HR, or VQ37VHR that sees hard use, because a $2k engine rebuild costs way more than proper cooling.
Key Features:
