Please note that Nissan's warranty period is for 5 years or 60,000 miles for powetrain issues (and that is a limited warranty at that). Most of the folks here are concerned about high temps leading to engine longevity issues.

Does anyone on this list want to foot the cost of a full rebuild at 100,000 miles or less because the oil gets to damn hot? Highly doubtful.

Timing belts, spark plugs and oil changes are maintenance. Engine rebuilds are not...and that's why I won't buy a 370Z until a factory certified oil cooler is made available at a reasonable cost...
