I have the largest Setrab Oil Cooler, temp is usually just below 180, if in traffic for a little while, it will get up to around 195-200. Once I get going again, it drops right down. It is also possible that the fact that your friends drive faster, help keep the the temp lower due to the added air. Now, if you are driving hard (track use) that is a whole different scenario.

So even if you get an oil cooler, you will see a somewhat similar episode, it's normal. Nissan will say it's normal and send you away
