Drive uphill with some gusto and you'll see. At 59*F ambient, I hit 260*F. You are right about warmer climates, today was 81*F and I hit 220*F with my oil cooler.

Good to know. Could it be the nissan engine's/modern oil safe temperature is higher then what we traditionally accept as ok? I don't have a z yet but probably will get one in the next month. I think I Can get by one summer here in canada without the cooler, winter definitly won't be needed
