220-240. You ain’t running the car hard. Me and ssfirehawk run between 260-280 no issues. 2 straight track days in 95 degree heat with 80-90% humidity.

Cooler. Not trying to bash you. Running 220-240. What is your set up.

my apologies..i took it wrong. cooling wise for the motor just a csf radiator and a 34 row cooler. in 90 degree weather, after 10 minutes im easily at 260.. and ill usually pit right there. these last couple days in the winter were in the 40's so even getting up to temp was rough. those were the days it would run about 220-240 ish

to be fair i changed the front bumper in between summer and winter so idk if that contributed to the lower temps

also seb put a failsafe in my tune at 270 cause he said i shouldnt run it hotter than 260

btw heres the build if youre interested

fudgefactory911 370z build

Ahhh now it makes sense. The car usually holds at 280 when redlining 7,800 every gear and downshifting very aggressively. Usually when shifting at 7,200 and not downshifting and late breaking temps usually stay at 260. I’ll check your build out.
