"For a dual-purpose car, engine oil needs to be at least 220 degrees F to burn off all the deposits and accumulated water vapor. For every pound of fuel burned in an engine, the combustion process also generates a pound of water! If engine sump temperatures rarely exceed 212 degrees (water's boiling point), the water will mix with sulfur (another combustion by-product) and create acids that can eventually damage bearings."
-Motor Trend acticle Heat kills oil. Not time, not friction. Whats happening is a trade-off between heat deterioration and oil life. What you want is maximum protection for the amount of time between oil changes. Is 0w20 just fine for a race car? Yes, but for how long? Is 10w50 just fine for a race car? Yes, but for how long? I dont think you are ever reaching a point with 10w50 where you are maximizing its capabilities. A thinner oil would protect your engine better GIVEN A STANDARD OIL CHANGE INTERVAL. Is 10w50 just fine for your car? Yes, but... **this was meant for another thread. Still relevant I suppose.

Any updates on the topic? Do these cars actually have an oil temp sensor? Has anyone had a gen2 go into limp mode from oil temp?
After warming up, I hit 257 F in 4-5 laps at Thill East. Seems uncomfortable to me though I had switched out the oil to 5w20 after breakin. I just want a cheap easy track car. I don’t want to get into mods but this plus the tire wear, tire choices, are making me think twice. |

Regarding pressure, data shows that oil pressure is about the same for 5w30 at 250F *with* an oil cooler as it is for the same oil at 275F *without* a cooler, see 2nd chart post #1 here: https://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=91820 In this case, pressure drop due to the cooler was pretty much equal to pressure drop due to higher temps without the cooler. For me, doing ~10-12 track days a year with ~10-15 minute sessions, I'm not worried about 270-275F oil temps running 5w30 synth with no cooler. IMO ensuring the oil pickup is clear before tracking might be considered a bigger priority than getting an oil cooler... |

All modern cars run HOT on the track. Higher running temperatures = better thermal efficiency.
Maybe an NA/NB. The ND1/ND2, Flyin' Miata has developed an Engine Oil Cooler, transmission fluid cooler and differential fluid cooler because they run so hot. Oh and they sell strong bolts for the transmission case to help keep them from flexing and breaking the I'm wanting to say 4th gear.

Most modern vehicles don't go into limp mode because of oil temp until they see 300F.
