Really? how easy was the install?

you guys are on crack...i don't care what nissan says...running @ 235f while cruising on the interstate in 6th gear at 80mph on a flat smooth road isn't right. granted it was hot as hell ambient (like 95) but that just doesn't feel right. i think 190-200f in everyday driving is appropriate.

i'm getting a 34 row oil cooler with thermostatic plate to prevent long warmups during the winter and running redline 5w30. will be fine on track days and in the future if i get forced induction.

good luck driving without an oil cooler in the southern u.s.! clearly an issue that nissan should fix.
