Nevermind... I thought you meant the rad cap and then looked at your link. No idea why it would be beneficial.

nothing for the most part. your car will always get to the same operating temperature. the nismo thermostat only delays the inevitable. its a waste of time and money. your better off getting a bigger radiator, oil cooler or both

If you don't track your car, then it's useless. It opens up a lot earlier than the stock one, so your car will take longer to warm up, which is a bad thing.
