Is it bad for a GSR temp not to be in the normal Temp?
 

I do notice at times that my car doesn't run at the normal temp when warmed up.
It fluctuates to the middle and then goes down a bit.

Is that good for the engine?

As long as it's not super hot you'll be OK. Get a new thermostat from Honda

No problem, my car would take forever to heat up, and would cool off completely driving on the freeway. When I replaced the thermostat it works good now.

I had the same problem too, if I was on the highway going over 70 i wouldnt have vtec my car ran so cold. I never worried about it because I am boosted and the cooler temps are better in my opinion.
