What to Set my Defi's to ?

[gelo]

i set the oil pressure to 1.2 bar minimum. coz i find sometimes is drops to abotu 1.2 bar. as long as it doenst go under 1.2 its ok. quoted by indy form IS motor racing

[DLO01]

Really? That low?
On the street, I have seen 105 degree celsius (water) and my oil pressure drops under 150kPa every now and then..

Or are these set for the track?

Water temp: I have low temp thermo and fan switch. Temps very rarely go over 90 degrees in my car.

Oil press: Sometimes mine goes under 150 when the revs die going into neutral or clutch in. Its beeps at me for a split second.

yer mine was set 2 1.5 but beeps fair bit... so i set to 1.2... for oil pressure..

for water temp.. i was thinking that it was a bit low (100'C)... mine goes pritty close to 100'C in traffic... so iv set it 2 105.. shell be fine till i get low thermo and fan switch for myself....

it also just set to 120'c now for oil temp wich is about right

well c on the 14th at Oran Park super sprints how it goes

Today at Wakefield.. my oil temp's were reaching around 130 degrees Celcius after only 4 laps.. Just an indication of how quickly it will start beeping.. After a cool down lap, oil temps only came down to around 120, and then on the very next lap, they climbed straight back up to 130.. A really irritating day..

These readings definitely call for an oil cooler..

I'm using Elf 10w-50 as my trackday oil... These temperatures were coming from a stock standard type R (besides a baffled sump)

I use 100 Water 110 oil & 1.5 oil press.

...But my Water temp didn't work...waiting for a new sender. Hoping that's it, because I've already mounted the gauges in a pod. If it's the water gauge I'll have to cut it out. (Siliconed in)

I use 10w-30 Mobil 1, Baffled sump & GReedy Oil Cooler. CYA at O.P.

Dave your car runs hot man! farking hell... Also sounds like heapssss low oil pressure.

Maybe invest in a Koyo radiator since you track alot, and a oil cooler!

[SHIFTY]

oil cooler and cooler thermostat is what ill be investing in me thinks.. im sure the stock radiator is good enough

ricky dude ur cars lookn sexy!
