Considering my normal oil temp is around 170-180 ish I was honestly surprised it went that high as I wasn't expecting it to go over 230.

The oil temp gauge I think has clouded a few peoples judgment. More then likely whatever car they owned in the past did not have a gauge so they have no idea what there temps were. I have heard many people complaining about temps in the 230-250 range, thats not really that abnormal. The hottest my temps got was 260, happen to me twice when I was really ringing her out, so I dont feel that my Z had the oil temp issue. Yea I added an oil cooler because I plan on tracking the car and going FI some day, those where the biggest reasons.
