Oil temp hovered around 220 degrees today. Normal driving under 4k rpm in 78 degree weather (normal for my z unfortunately).

I don't mean to give the impression that the oil is boiling. Rather that it may be overfilled and coming in contact with the crankshaft counterweights which would whip it up into a froth, diminishing the oil's ability to lubricate. I doubt thats the case though since Im not above the High mark on the dipstick (unless the stick is as inaccurate as my mazda3's).
