I am really confused about my oil temp....does this sound right. I can let my car warm up for about 5-10 min and then drive it around 15min and the temp never goes above 100 deg. Do I have a bad gauge or is this normal?

100 degrees what? Fahrenheit or Celsius? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/dunno.gif

I never have monitored my temps before.

Jspec or Dragon could one of you guys post the average running temps from your cars.

IE.. Water/intake/oil..

This may be a topic we can pin .

Ok everyone feel free to post your average running temps.

If you dont have one then leave it blank. This would keep the info easy to browse through.

Anyone?

I could have sworn that someone posted that the stock gauge wasn't acurate and you needed an aftermarket one. I remember mine would piss me off because it would fluctuate alot. It would flat line then go back up. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/dunno.gif

The stock guage has about a 30 degree temp leeway.

Yes if you really want to know when the temps are rising as opposed to

**** your car just overheated then get a good aftermarket guage

water: 83-95c

intake: ??

oil temps: 180 cruising over 40mph, 230+ under 40

guages: power fc coolant, autometer oil temp

mods: mazdacomp radiator



the oil needs air flow to stay cool, turbo timing is bad
