My New Rear Diff Oil Cooler INSTALLED!

A friend of mine i my club with a G35 and I have been working on these setups on our cars for a little while now. His was the first to finish, but I have not had an oppertunity to snap pics yet. We basically wanted to finally hook up a rear-diff cooler for our cars, and the only real kit out there is ARC which is way too much $$$.
We basically made our oun peace-meal kits using setrab cooling cores, Earls and XRP lines and fittings, Tilton for the pump, Earl's for the inline filter and Motul 90PA on the fluid (for our clutch type LSDs). We both already have the Nismo Finned Diff Cover on the cars. All that's left is the wiring for the switch and relay.

We just finished my install this afternoon, here are some pics
(bracketry for the hoses is still not 100% done, I just used some aluminum clamps for the time being).








Just thought I'd share the new stuff, lol, getting bored, and running out of stuff to do haha.

Yes, We test fit some of the Motordyne setups before they were released. I'm running the MD single titanium setup currently and love it

I am always interested in testing new products if they're good quality. This last project was something I've been contemplating for a while just never got around to it.

Thanks for the comments guys!

Funny you mention that, Rick and I here are looking into a custom front mount oil cooler that has a similar setup to that of the ARC kit. The ARC is very pricey and we want to have a similar design for about half the price. Once we get the info going we'll post it up. Unfortunately, due to my front mount intercooler setup, we won't be able to test fit this unit on my Z, so we might need someone to help us out. But that's a while off still.

honestly no, it's just something to do because I can. The car is track ready, I mean the suspension's all setup, and balanced etc (although I have it set for my tastes, and I prefer to fishtail / drift here and there)... I just would never have time to make a track day, I hardly have time to go to a show anymore life's been busy.

It's always nice thought to tinker on the car in the garage here and there, and there's not much left I can do without crazy motor work which I cannot afford right now.
