    when mine hit 112 the needle was over the halfway mark, normally it sits a little below the halfway mark AFAIK all VQ radiators have the inlet and outlet in the right position, the radiator cap may not be. Z33s have them in a different position.

    no mate i dont, im lacking the mounting screw for the sub to hold it and the spare wheel into the wheel well. if i did, id have it hooked up already! i THINK it uses a speaker level input from the amps that are usually in the boot of the bose equipped models. from an aftermarket head unit, i wouldnt imagine it would be too hard to wire up. for $80 its worth taking the risk! lol

    also, no, there is no wiring to the sub for the non-bose cars. but there is an amp built into the sub enclosure, so it wouldnt be difficult to work out the power wires and the audio input

    thats dirt cheap! i got one into the country from IM and it cost me over $300 to get it here!

    i hit 112 a few weeks ago on that really hot day in sydney, i had the AC on. which i turned off once it got that hot. need to get that 54mm radiator in

    does it run again yet??
  8. zei20l
    lol ok then good luck driving your car

    seal kit is cheap!! i wont worry about PMing you the price. the pump is a bitch to get in and out, but not impossible. craig's words not mine lol

    so when there is no water in the cooling system, what happens to the temperature gauge?? it goes up, not down.
  11. zei20l
    no, it will read high if there is no water. water wont boil under pressure in a sealed environment. like a cooling system in a car! put some air in there and the water WILL boil and show a higher temp due to the steam being hotter than the water.........

    the V35 radiator for 3.5L will need cutting anyway, its not that much. the 2.5L will bolt in fine sorry, i should have mentioned that there is a whole thread for this radiator issue however, that price is still decent for an OEM part!! the factory radiators on IM for M35 are still over $3250 + delivery + taxes blah blah, probably $600 by the time it gets here
  13. zei20l
    RWD RE5 transmission + new engine loom + TCU and youre away.......
  14. zei20l
    my all alloy radiator was about $220 + delivery from china.......
  15. zei20l
    nope, it will probably read too high as the fluid can boil with air in the system.......
  16. zei20l
    except that water temp at the radiator isnt water temp in the engine which is where you really need it
  17. zei20l
    i MAY have a 2nd hand pump in the garage from an M35
  18. zei20l
    amen to that, and the 1-2mins of easy driving before you get home is a street 'cool down lap'
  19. zei20l
    if you can, park the car on a down slope so that bleed point is highest in the system. it helps..........
  20. zei20l
    is that car even running anymore?
  21. zei20l
    or just check the fluid level so that you dont pay someone $180 to top up the radiator......
  22. zei20l
    thanks for the link! i should probably do mine at some stage soon
  23. zei20l
    bleed the system, might need topping up. at that needle position youre probably looking at around 110-112degrees water temp. not the best, but is still operational. if it doesnt have air in the system, look for a blockage, or check the status of your thermo fans. does it go back down when youre cruising again? if it doesnt, possibly a water pump issue.

    makes vinegar i heard.....

    also jaycar sell burners, they have conversion kits, not sure if they sell D2R/D2S though, but worth a look if youre near one
