How does the Z perform is this crazy heat? I left work at 430pm and it was scorching. Remember, I'm from the NorthEast. We call hot, 90.

Today will be rainy. But if its 116 out, the car will just be a little more laggy and when running the A/C on mid or full, the car might bog out if parked or stationary for too long. I also dont have an oil cooler. So my temps are crusing at 220 and when im on it, their at 230+ (At least mine does...)

Yeah....mine runs and performs better in cooler weather. But that's expected since the air is densor. My S/C 4Runner runs very sluggish in the summer.

As far as the Z, since adding the oil cooler, my temps are around 205-210 at their highest with water temps below half. Z responds much better with the cooler oil temps. Plus, with adding a larger filter, it gave me more capacity.

That's my oil temps in Massachusetts when it's 80's - 90's. This is in stop and go traffic though. Once I start driving it decreases to 190-200.
