yeah the Z for some reason has it's oil temp sensor located in the oil inlet instead of in the pan, I dunno why. It will read signifacntly cooler than those with an aftermarket guage in the pan. somebody with an aftermarket gauge want to post up the temp the ecu sees vs. the temp in the pan for us that would be great. sometimes there can be a very large difference between the 2 locations even without a cooler. and much more so when racing as the engine oil will be much hotter draining, and a greater percentag of heat will be lost in cooling. It's not uncommon for race cars to have +50 degree difference between inlet temp and pan temp
