Oil Overheat

chrischhorn · 04-23-2012, 12:59 AM

plain and simple, everyone has different thoughts and what not. None are necessarily right or wrong. i PERSONALLY do not like my oil temp goin over 220. Just something that i am use to coming from turbo hondas and what not. Some people are fine with 250's but i am not one of those even though it technically may be ok. But anyways Diddy, you will be fine with the 19 row with your driving and what you plan for now. You don't need an thermostat plate for a 19 row since you have the o.e.m cooler that will get our temps to where we need without overheating it or running too cool. Nice thing about havin the oem cooler is that our temps are more constant due to the coolant.

Sounds like the 2012 oil cooler works pretty good. 1st day I had my Z, sitting in traffic on a 90 degree day and it went straight to 260. During the winter it's been sitting between 200 and 220. Mellew (2nd gear, 3000-4500 RPM) drive up a mountain road on a 60 degree rainy day brought it back up to 260. Working on my own take on an oil cooler that does not leave 1 qt of dirty oil in the engine every oil change. I really hope it works... LOL
