Car runs really well and engine feels good.

I’ve done one track day and oil temps were as expected, maybe a little over halfway to the 255* mark. It was also December, so cooler here in SoCal.
I have autox’d the car quite a bit and feel like oil temps come much closer to the 255* mark after each event and also closer than the one track day.

I have fresh oil (10w/60 LM) and the updated water pump (metal impeller).

Outside of upgrading my radiator, is there other solutions that won’t cost much?

I’ve put redline water wetter in before but can’t recall if the current coolant tank has it in there (if that even helps oil temps).

FWIW, the Autox’s I generally run at are 60-70 second runs and 8-15 minute breaks between each run. I push the car but generally in 2nd gear the whole time and rarely hit the limiter.

What are you trying to solve? 255 oil temps are fine for this platform. I have a csf oil cooler (and radiator and do88 dct cooler) and I get into the 260s on hot track days.
