Can anyone who has driven the car through europe and hotter countries advise me whether I should invest in a mishimoto oil cooler or not?

 

I have an 09 370 and the oil on warm days does get quite warm when i'm driving enthusiastically.

 

I will participating in a european rally in june so would be grateful for any advice.

 

Unsure what a safe oil temp is for these cars to be honest.

 

Cheers

I have one although I'm fi

 

I did Europe last year in my car standard and there was no issues

If you see it getting a bit warm be show a little mechanical sympathy

 

Chances are you won't be balls to the wall 100% of the time anyway

First you would need to know how hot the oil temps get, modern synthetic oils can handle temps up to 130C +, and i seriously doubt Nissan would design the oil system without keeping the temps in hotter country's in mind, so unless your tracking the car on a regular basis, i really wouldn't worry

I drove Europe, Nurburgring and track days last year had no issues, I have bought a oil cooler kit ready to fit but will wait till my service. You'll be fine without it.
