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...

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
