My rule of thumb is to take the corner at twice the posted limit. But that's once you know the corner, you've learnt the apexes etc. I would probably make you poop your pants.
BTW I wouldn't call the Nismo a "bad *** race car", it's far from being a race car. It's a slightly sportier sports package in reality. Not knocking the Nismo but just warning you against taking it to the track without a few upgrades.
As for the oil temperature I wouldn't expect a problem, you really have to beat the bag out of the car to get the temperature up. Only time it goes up for me is when I drive the car hard with full throttle for a long time or if you drive it hard for a few minutes and then stop because you are stuck in traffic or end an auto-cross run and park in the pits. It cools down quick unless the ambient temperature is above 90 degrees.
