Reminds me of a mate when we were out hooning on the good old CR80's at 14yrs old.

Popped in to a servo for gear box oil; bloke behind the counter said this stuff will work but it may be a bit thick when cold.

So my mate asks... Can I mix it with a bit of water to thin it out then. lmfao. :D

I don't really see the point in bagging the guy out.

I mean aren't we here to learn about our cars?

Some constructive posts might be a little better don't you think.

But also as said before If you really know that little about modifying cars (not being an a$$ just an observation).

Then maybe you should either talk to a mechanic, read one of the FMIC installation tutorials on here or get a buddy that is tech savvy to give you a hand.

Well thats my opinion

    • So....to find any R chassis part number, get your VIN (will be something like ER33-xxxxxx for you) and go to: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan and enter it. From there you have access to a web version of Nissan's part system, FAST. It is a bit tricky to get used to, so maybe have a shot and post up what you think.  You can also search by general model but note in some cases your car might have different options so VIN is safest.  On diagram 211 I got 14075-75T16 for Connector, Water Hose If I search for part 14053‑21U10 that you posted, that is also a water hose but not the one bolted to the plenum and 14075‑04U00 is the fitting where the water hose goes into the block.
    • Yeah now we are talking I much prefer coolers in the front middle because it lessens the chance of a small bump to a corner stopping the whole event. I was thinking the AT cooler can move out of the radiator, delete the AT/engine coolant interwarmer and mount a separate cooler with a thermoswitch somewhere further back as is common in racing, that would be one thing. Beyond that, the engine oil cooler is an obvious one to move to the wheel arch, potentially one on each side, but unused space is an issue. I did have a earlier pic with the bumper off but it doesn't show how busy the corners are: DS is full of the auto driving sensors and PS is totally fully of windscreen washer fluid reservoir But ultimately I was hoping to keep the AC, and the water/air heat exchanger is fundamental so it is not just the radiator that needs to be in front BTW here's airflow to the rad as it ran at the track (one horn is gone now and I'll remove the lights next time):
