Hey all Higher Hp guys who have street S2000's What is your water temp readings? espically in day to day driving.

Im trying to find out an average temp..

thanks

 

on highway, even in 100F i am around 195, when i am in stop and go, its around 215

The same in colder weather, only it takes longer to get to operating temps, and longer at idle...obviously

This would be pretty similar for stock cooling system cars, due to the fan controller and temp the opens.

I have never seen the coolant levels increase when i have been doing spirited driving

 

thanks for the info...im around the same

 

Does anyone use a coolder fan switch and a coolder thermostat ?



J's Racing offers this fan switch to operate the fan at 80 degrees (Stock 95 degrees) celius and shuts off at 75 degrees (Stock 90 degrees)



The stock Honda thermostat opens when the water temperature reaches 88C. The Spoon thermostat improves cooling performance by lowering the opening temperature to 65C and is fully open at 70C.

 

Most of us turbo guys have EMS' where the fan can be controlled at whatever temp we want so no need for an aftermarket fan switch.

As far as the thermostat, stock here as well. I've seen threads about the elite "JDM" brands leaking, no thanks.

 

Can you set the fan to work at a diff temp with the EMS without any rewiring?

 

yes it is all in the EMS settings. No need to rewire anything. Your tuner should be able to lower the temp settings. If you search on here you might be able to find a thread on it also.

 

Thanks

 

Mugen fanswitch and t-stat here.

Fans come on at @ 195 and shut off at @ 183.

I have not changed my AEM cal tables yet. They read @ 20 deg (F) higher than they should apparently. Refer to this thread: AEM Coolant Temps.

 

Great info over there

Has any of the EMS users over here hade that problem with the temps not being right
