what oil temp were you getting? why considered too hot? some of me at full abcc



temp up to 279. have since put in koyo radiator and the forester oem style cooler kit but not been back to a track yet. did gingerman after this vid (before the install of those goodies) and it hit 279, and i sent it in to blackstone.

here is the oil analysis -

speculating it will be 230/240s with the goodies in and... good enough? next time i get some data i'll post it. (may be abcc full 10/6?)
Its hard to critique but at 18:17 you washed out to far which hurts your setup for next corner. The following turn you just need to brake deeper and turn in later.

We ran 0w20 switched to 10w30 then 10w40.
220F was the limit on 0w20 redline before we saw 45psi (oil pressure) at 7000RPM
250F was the limit on 10w30 on redline before we saw 45psi at 7000rpm
And 265F was limit of 10w40 on redline 45psi at 7000rpm.

Now I want to say first and foremost mechanically speaking the motor technically is supposed to have 80psi at 7000rpm per service manual. But in the real world as oil heats we typically only see 60psi.

But when you drop into the 40psi range its asking for trouble skimming bearings and such. Now I have ran 0w20 to 265F and had clean UOA. BUt the motor is fresh. I wont do that again its too risky namely if you do it under higher lateral load.
