well, I would say return it and buy this one, but shipping costs will kill you. I know this isnt 3ZC's product, but it would be nice if they started including FULL upgrades...meaning SS braided Oil Cooler lines...would be nice for those of us looking to upgrade fully, or like me, someone doing a TT swap in the future and wanting the full package....not OEM rubber hoses

LOL, that is pretty much your own fault on that one. The Oil Cooler was winning by a mile the whole time in the voting. That is why I waited for it. I finally got it though. My current one has so many rocks in it I can empty it out and have my own little beach. And all the fins are bent to all hell.

I'm sure that could be done, for additional cost.

That is very true. I was not paying close enough attention. Hey its only money right? #$%&@&*(&%()%
$40 is another hour of my life slaving away in the hospital:owned:
I love these monthly group buy deals. The deals are great, it lets you get involved by voting and it lets 3ZC give something back to its members. Everybody wins.

You should be able to swap it out without taking the fascia off. Jack the car up, remove the splash guard, and you should have easy access to it. The only thing I am worried about is losing my brand new oil that I just changed 500 miles ago and that costs $8/bottle!

Just wait until you're going to change the oil again.

How much extra? I'm interested in replacing my rubber lines also.

lol, I drive it a VERY limited amount of time, I haven't driven it more than 2000 miles since I got it. And I am not even driving it currently due to all my projects. and since my oil is good for 15,000 miles (Mobil 1 Full Synthetic Extended Performance) I think I will have to change the oil cooler prior to needing an oil change. Unless I go ghetto style and catch all my good oil and reuse it. lol, I'm poor.
Looks like the Rotoras got added in...outta my price range though

I just added an oil cooler to my parts collection.

You will just have to piece what you need together yourself. Its not too bad. You just need some -8AN braided line and a few Earls fittings. What you will need will depend on if you want to run your lines straight to the oil cooler or utilize the OEM hardlines that go around the radiator.
I used the hardlines because of the potential for rubbing in the tight spaces at that point.
Another option is to replace the rubber lines from the oil pan/filter tree with the Z1 silicone hoses http://www.z1motorsports.com/imagemagic.php?img=images/silicone%20hoses%20022008 %20(2).JPG&w=800&h=600&page=popupand then replace your rubber hoses in the very front with braided line.

No 120k kit for the September group buy!? I thought it won!?

Yeah, that pretty much blows...only thing I need out of those choices.
I think that "necessary" parts such as the 120k kit are much better products to offer to the Z community - we could ALL use them, and they are required to keep our cars running.
If you can't get a good GB price from vendors, then fine...but don't list them as options if that is the case.
For all I know, you guys are still busy figuring out different 120k packages and prices w/ Z1. Regardless, it's worth saying.
