Hey Everyone,

I just picked up a silver GS430 over the weekend and loving it! Had a newbie question as I tried to search this forum for the answer.

Where does your I Temp Gauge sit at when she's all warmed up or when you're driving. Do these things run a little warm? Mine is smack dab in the middle. I live in SoCal by the beach and it hasn't been hot in the area. Thanks guys!

mine always runs just a touch below the middle. I've checked my radiator temp with a digital therm and it runs around 190.

Will do guys. I just got back from lunch and she reads a hair below middle. Thanks guys and I will post pics in a bit.

Still getting used to her. I came from a 93 Supra (NA) and '95 GS-R to this thing. All I can say is WOW!!! She's beautiful.

Thanks for the warm welcome. Now time to drop some parts in her!
