F.I. oil cooler

Elmo370z · 01-05-2016, 03:43 AM

Here in florida tonight its very brisk 55 and windy. I went for a stroll to test for leaks and it was a struggle getting to 180.

Yep, 180 even as low as ~170 is acceptable.

I blended my oil down to 0w25 for the winter

TerribleONE · 01-05-2016, 10:28 AM

Elmo370z · 01-05-2016, 11:09 AM

Yea my car takes a long time to warm up as well between the oil cooler and the extra capacity from the TT kit.

Whoa that isn't too far from me. I live like 2 seconds from the gandy bridge. I had no life for about 6 months beside work. I'm good now. Im usually free during the week.

My temp gauge looks like yours when it's around 50ish in Maryland with the z1 25 row kit.

Cant imagine how long it took last year when those blizzards came through. 6 more months secrets on the beach! (aka blackout city).

Did you just install this and if so did you take pics or just use the instructions that came with it? I have mine but am waiting until my exhaust comes to install both at the same time.

Looks normal. I barely hit 160F by the time I got to work this morning. Outside temps were 33F. Rare to have those low temps here so I am not worried about it.

Yes i just installed it. i just have to tighten down a AN fitting to fix a small oil leak. I read the instructions over and over again. they are pretty straight forward. That would be the best way to do it. You have a AN wrench? If not your going to scratch up the AN fittings tighten them down.
