Current oil pressure data?

You need to know these things to pick oil cooler type and size, if not you can overcool, not cool enough, drop your oil pressure, etc. etc.

Actually, why do you think you need a oil cooler is the first question to answer.

wow, that a lot of info u just posted
i will try my best to answer


i am doing autox around 10 and 4 or 5 track day per year
my local track is main in 2sec and 3 gear with high rpm up shift and down shift a lot.
and i do the heel and toe every single time when the water temp is up


it is still a stock engine with drop in air filter and a intake tube


the climatic is around 0-30 all year, usually have the track day around 20-30c


my car is 2017 86 base,so i did not get any data.
but my buddy who is always track with me got 17 brz with the oil temp and coolant temp
he said the oil temp is very stable but the coolant is the one where he is keep eye on it.


every time i am back from track, i feel the car exhausted. not smooth as usual, the gear box too. it will became normal after a few days that is reason i am looking for the oil cooler



and i just bought the obd2 "mx+" to see the data. and will install it after that to compare.


the jackson racing na oil cooler has the "Thermostatic Oil Adapter for Proper Oil Warm Up"
which should good for the warm up oil


here is the link for the part

Will it work, yes, is it what you need, maybe?

What temp is the thermostat?

something around 85 to 95c, i cant remember it. but for sure that thing will help when the oil is still cold which is the part design for.
dont know much about the machine, just going to trust them. which i always pick the big brand to help me avoid any failure.

The Blitz oil cooler fits the airbox but the kit itself is specific for the MY front bumper due to the air guides.

So 2013-2016 is one kit, 2017+ is another.

Obviously does not matter for your purposes but will matter for OP.

Anyone know where to get a higher thermostat to swap into the mocal
Thermostat plate? Preferably 195-205F or 90-95C range. Temps aren’t getting hot enough with the 180F thermostat.

Yes they are. Tap your own oil temp sensor pre-cooler, to see for yourself.

What would be adequate temp to read post cooler on OBD for safe DDing?
Or what is the Delta pre and post cooler on say JR Oil Cooler kit?

I get to about 155F in close to same time as before but after that it takes forever to get to even 170F in 60F ambient temps. But if its a 15+ degree pre and post difference then maybe reading 170F on OBD would be fine.
