I think what it is saying is if you want oil temps of 200, you would want that kind of temp reading on oil coming out of the engine (meaning oil in the engine is at 200). The 370z oil temps are read before going in the engine though. So if the guage shows 180 degrees, then real oil temps are probably 200

EDIT for those new to the discussion this applies to those with an oil cooler only.
