Constant Heat

[4AL2NV]

Hi as the title says when i drive my r33 for more than about half an hour this heat is coming from around my pedal area. It just warms up all around me and in particular my clutch pedal heats up alot. It can't be my clutch i dont think cause there is no clutch smell or anthing. What could be causing this?

I think I get what your describing as well, like if im driving along with no air on I get a nice warm almost blowing air down around my feet. I always just assumed it was heated engine bay air getting in from somewhere

is the interior standard, or has someone messed with the carpet/insulation?

the firewalls on late model 'Lines don't usually have any holes, apart from the a/c, heater hoses and throttle cable- but yeah, good idea to check to see if any rubber bungs might be missing.

i bet its the fact that you have your climate control heat on 32 degress or whatever and the setting/mode at your feet.

even if its comletly turned off, it still blows a little heat.

i noticed it when it stated to get colder and my climate contol would be set at heat (even if off). i just turn the climate control heat down or change the setting/mode if your not using it, and you wont notice it. i drive bare feet alot so i noticed it very easily

turn the climate control down, colder air.

chuck your head down there and look to the left you will see a little plastic snorkel thing, for Feet mode, that will be were its coming fom

when climate control is off, turn on the 2nd right hand button on the bottom right corner of climate control. the one with air flowiung in froom outside symbol. by activating this button it blocks the feet snorkel and air vents and allows excess heat to be dispersed from the heater unit to the outside instead of in the cabin at your feet.

Hit the "re-circulate" button to close off the vent.
