Default over heating issue (40th 370z TT KIT)

Hi everyone , my name is moe am a new member in his forum ,and am a proud owner of a 370z 40th annivesary GTM twinturbo kit 1 .i bought his car and shipped it over seas from a close friend of mine , it arrived today,i am very well expereinced with high performance cars , so having a car at 469whp on a mustang dyno wasnt so WOOOOW , but i loved the drivibiliy , but still spools faster than anything i saw in my life and the power is almost there when you need it , finally gettin to the point , where i am it was 100f today its not that hot it reaches 120-130 f , i wasnt driving hard on the car or anything, and parked in front of the house with the ac for 15 min i saw the gauge and its 3 dots passed middle so it was 2 dots behind the HOT , i was surprised because the coolent level is checked , new with waterwetter , meshimoto thermosate and hoses , and the car has around 8000miles and the build has 2000miles or so ,the car still smells new , is this normal ? or do i have to think of changing the radiator also? but am surprised because am sure it gets 100f in the USA and no one every mentioned temps going passed middle , ohh the oil temps around 205-210 max , all help and feed back are appreciated , plz excuse my english since its not my first language .. thank you , and GOD BLESS GTM hehehehe

P.S PLZ DONT TAKE THIS AS A COMPLAIN ON GTM KIT, THIS IS ME ASKING FOR KNOWLDGE ONLY ,the car is one the best i drove in my life , and i am on the way to build a stage 2 or higher infinity with the help of SAM once i see how good this kit is in our hot climate.
