Oil Cooler and Synthetic oil questions
Have a few questions on adding an oil cooler for my 88T. One, Im runnin pretty hot on my oil temperature roughly 280 degrees. Two, i just rebuilt my heads and was wondering if using Royal Purple XPR10W40 oil was okay for initial break in, along with RYP 80-90 in manual transmission and LSD? (Tranny n CLSD minor work done to them, not rebuilt yet) Since i rebuilt my heads ive noticed ive restored a lot of lost power but now heating up. Currently im using Castrol High Mileage 10w40.
-Is there a good oil cooler on the market to use or has noticable results? (Thinkin on a Hayden or Flexlite)
-Where is a great location to install it? ( Was thinkin, in the wheel well, like the automatic 88T has it or where i want is in between the intercooler and radiator)
PS
Will post pics soon of my work from majority of these write ups.

Checked out alright? As in it's 220 degrees or 280 degrees?
I have the same prob on my 280ZXT... the oil temp gauge reads close to 300* at running temp, but my infrared thermometer reads 205 at the side of the oil pan. I replaced my oil temp sensor, so next I'll be replacing my gauge pod.

i installed the hayden medium duty cooler it was like $ 100 and the temp has stayed pretty much below 200 even on the freeways, but i installed it sandwiched between the a/c condenser and the little fan in the middle of the grille. well worth the investment i think good luck with the install.
