Long road trips at 80+ mph can hit 240+ during the summer. I'm hoping to get an oil cooler by the end of the year, but $500 for the Z1 25 row isn't in my budget right now with rotors and pads a few weeks ago and new tires in the near future. I'm going to get Joe at Dynotronics to adjust the fan control in my tune as well.

I know these engines are designed to run hot, but you gotta get an oil cooler. Nissan put a not-so-good one (lightly put), in the 2012+, I've upgraded mine to a 25row, now 200 is the most I get when driving hard here in LA.
