It's funny how ppl start to worry when the oil temps rise above 90 degrees C on a hot day, when it is considered normal.

Hot outside temps + A/C running (drains a little bit of power, so you put your foot down more) + if you drive hard / on boost = Temps will rise a little higher.

Just make sure you keep your oil and radiator levels topped up and you'll be fine.

mine has been most noticeable hot at a little less than 100 degrees, during travel at 100kmh and over 30 minutes.

about the Oil Temp Meter. I know it starts at 70 and finishes at 150. so does what make it 70 90 110 130 150 at each bar. Are these the numbers?

also when it got at this stage the HICAS warning light came on. whats that mean?

please bare with me: whats the oil temp for?

GTRs come standard with an oil cooler...

They dont and even NURs dont come with oil cooler. Only N1s come with them.

Mine is always sitting at the bottom of the gauge (75?) when driving around and hottest is around 90+ I think during the SAU drag day which was in the midst of summer! Only did 4 runs though...

    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
    • Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.
    • I agree once misfires happen it's basically worthless, but the hope is you can see what's happening in the run up to that. 
    • You should totally get a Brumby, and then come pick up the Subaru Liberty GTB I have here. EJ25 Turbo, 6 speed manual from the sti (just no dccd), and the good rear diff. Drop all that into a Brumby and go have fun!
