8litres of oil!! sh1t. maybe is a 4 cylinder and the other two bores are for oil storage...

seriously though, why so much capacity and why does it gets so hot. even when pounding my GTR round the track with the oil cooler and a measly ~6litre system capacity it only gets to around 90degrees. water temp gets to ~82.

does it have a big arse sump?

Install an oil cooler Kabab.

There's your answer. Oil cooler makes a big difference in oil temps.

There's a fair bit of difference between your engine and Kabab's engine :P I don't think they're really comparable. The difference in heat that an RB26 generates between 230awkw/250rwkw (yours) and 320awkw (kabab's) is MASSIVE.

There's no cooling problem, other than the need for an oil cooler. It's a well known fact that RB26 heads have a major problem with heat dissipation. Just ask Mario, he knows all about it :);) ;)

The trust sump extension lifts the capacity to around 8L if im not mistaken?

Jim was filling it with about 7.5 Litres of Castrol Formula R 10W-60 if I remember correctly.

John quoted me for 8L :squint:

He charged me for 2x 5L bottles of Castrol, and gave me the remainder of the oil from the second bottle that he didn't use. I think I still may have some left over in the garage somewhere...

Castrol Forumla R 10w60 is what they use in all their big HP engines, including Mario's sh1tbucket, so I deemed it adequate for the purple di1do.
