Oil,water temp questions

[g3driver]

Installing new gauges need some info where to put the redline markings
Max water temperature value in ferinheight?
Max oil temp?
Normal water / oil temp?

I want to mark a green arc for normal and a redline for max on gauges.

Thanx in advance

A few variables go into this to make recommendation, such as whether you track your NSX (ambient temperature), the type of oil/weight you use (viscosity), as well as the radiator cap (psi) you use.

In general, for track purposes I would put the max water temp at 210F and for oil 260F. Normal driving varies significantly given the ambient temperature.

Running the open road challenge events averaging 160+ mph over 90 miles at 85 ambient, my oil temp peaks at 266 degrees F, the water temp at 196 (but there's lots of air flow at those speeds).
