my cars been running a little bit cooler lately in this weather. Im not sure what the cause of it is. Sometimes it runs at normal operating temperatures, but sometimes it stays on the cooler side. Mines a 99 gsr.

i agree. i had the exact same problem. the culprit was the thermostat. you definately don't want to run cold for long periods of time as you'll be running in open loop and therefore running rich more than your supposed to.
