I've spoken to them a couple of times now regarding the oil temp issue. They said if I was concerned, I should buy a Nismo oil cooler kit (part # 21300-SS370). The dealer quoted a price of $700 for the kit plus about 3 hours of labor to install. When I asked Nissan what they considered normal oil operating temp, they would not give me a straight answer. Asked them if they were ok with me emailing Road and Track to get their take on this issue (or to make sure their readers were aware); they said they would have a supervisor call me back. That was earlier today. We'll see what happens. Its a great car (minus the oil temp issue). I'd read about the oil temp issue on the track; but did not believe it would be a problem for daily driving.
