I'm driven my Nismo pretty hard and have yet to see temps above 220. Now, I haven't spent 20+ minutes straight above 5k RPMs, but I'm not sure there's a place for that type of driving unless you're on the track, in which case shouldn't you have an oil cooler anyways?

Reading through this thread, I'm confused... Seeing a thread called "oil temp issues" with so many replies made me think there may be a problem. Reading through the thread only makes me feel better, seeing as so many people have no issues while driving normal.

Or am I way off?

Driving normal my oil temp stays under 220. But as soon as i put in fresh oil and start with the aggresive driving it gets close to 260. I agree with an oil cooler for the track but people are saying that nissan says adding the cooler will void the warranty
