In January when i bought it new, the oil temp under same driving conditions was around 180. So warmer weather will likely increase the oil temp, but I haven't seen it go over 200 yet..


I don't race or take it on the track so not worried about over-heating or oil cooler.
You are correct. You will never have an oil temp issue if you drive the speed limit and never accelerate hard. But most of us beat the crap out of our Z's once in awhile. Try it you'll like it.
