The Nismo Oil Cooler is basically an oversized stock cooler. Quoted from the oil cooler listing:
"The standard stock oil cooler setup found on the 300ZX Twin Turbo is limited in its ability to cool and flow engine oil. Nissan designed the oil cooler system found on the 300zx Twin Turbo to work in parallel with oil being supplied to the engine, rather than in series. A restrictor with a small opening is even included in the lines behind the cooler in the stock configuration to limit flow. While the factory oil cooler configuration is ample for stock cars under street conditions, it may not be able to keep oil temperatures acceptable under competitive driving circumstances with engine output increased. A true FULL FLOW Oil Cooler Setup means 100% of the oil passes through the cooler before being supplied to the engine. Resulting in cooler oil entering your engine, reduced wear on the engine's critical parts (i.e., Turbo chargers, Main Bearings, Cam Shafts), and increased engine life. Considering all the oil being supplied to the engine must pass through the oil cooler system first, a system of this design requires less restrictive larger lines and a higher capacity core than the stock size components, which were engineered for the lower volume parallel configuration."
