Does the G35 have an OEM oil cooler?
This might be a stupid question but when I was changing my oil for the first time I noticed a hose near the oil filter mounting base that looked kind of a like an oil cooler line. I've never read anything about a stock oil cooler but can someone clear this up for me

Our cars has a small oil cooler where the base of the oil filter connects to. The hose you are referring to carries coolant to the oil cooler to cool the oil passing by. It's obviously not as good as an aftermarket oil cooler kit with a small radiator type device but for a street car it's plenty. Here's a pic.

Well the point would be that on very cold mornings the hot engine coolant will help the oil warm up faster, because the oil takes much longer to warm up to operating temp. But if the thermostat does not let hot coolant through, how can it cool the oil when the engine is at operating temp? I guess I need to learn a bit more about oil coolers
