oil cooler on g37s coupe -- need to cut holes?
I'm seeing some older reviews for the oil cooler and seeing some complaints that the Z1 instructions didn't indicate that you'd have to cut through the powersteering equipment. Does that issue still exist? Or, if I shell out the $500-ish bucks will I be able to sit down in an afternoon and install the 25 fin cooler with thermostatic onto my G37 without any suprises?

i don't have the z1 kit but i do have the mocal thermostatic sandwich plate and a greddy core. i fabbed my own brackets to hold the core right behind the passenger's side bumper vent. i didn't have to cut or clearance anything. i believe i used 2 regular AN fittings on the sandwich plate, not the 120deg ones that the z1 kit uses but i'd have to double check

Can you confirm which model year you have? I believe there was some change around 2012 (I may be wrong).
My level of 'fear of uncertainty' really wants to purchase something that I know will work without having to cut/manufacture/extend anything.
