just a comparison.. my 4AGE water temp goes to 100-110c during drifting
when normal driving its around 80+C... sorry i dunno bout vtec

im not the sifu but my understanding is within 80-90c during normal drive...anything goes up to 100c & above, it is either the reading is inaccurate, or something wrong with ur cooling system....it can be water pump, radiator, termostat etc...

btw, ur defi gauge is ori or imitation...i was told tat imitation gauge reading is not accurate.

just my 2cent

morning cold start can be as low as 26-27 depending on the temperature of the day
cruising around : 83 to 88
hot afternoon traffic jam : 90 to 95
whack up genting w/o air-cond : 95-96 max

water will boil at 100 and it'll overheat at around 110.....best to keep it below 100 most of the time.....
