Anyone put an alloy radiator in an m35 yet?

Fenix are a good choice - made in NZ, not china, and good local support. Discounts for NSW club members too.

:google:

350z radiators have the cap on the wrong side.

It will foul with your intake funnel into the airbox.

I am led to believe that the pins at the bottom of the tank that slip into the support holes are located a little too far forward or back (can't remember) on the 350z radiators.

Sooo... Iain... you'd have a spare stock BOV now, right? :whistling:

Castor arm bushes are those poly bushes Craig was doing, right? Were yours just shagged or are the poly ones that much different?

As Duncan would know as an SAU NSW member I fitted a 42mm one to the R33 which required no trimming at all but needed a little fiddling with the aircon temp sensor (some R33's have no issues with the sensor).

I also fitted the same one to the stagea which required a small amount of trimming of the central part of the shroud (due to the extra thickness of the core).

Both are working well and quality looks good. Pricing for SAU members and speed of delivery get a tick from me.

Thanks I'll try him tomorrow.

Let us know how you get on; it's on my list to do before summer.

The OEM rad is barely adequate in hot weather, and nowhere near good enough once you put a bigger intercooler in front of it; which is also on my list...

Fenix don't do a full alloy radiator to suit M35/V35. They have them listed but they are just 350z ones. Full credit though, once I got onto them the guys were pretty helpful and obviously didn't want to sell me the wrong thing (like SO many people I've spoken to in the last day).

Top of my list right now is a Koyo V35 radiator. Wbperformance.com will do them for USD $405 shipped, just not sure how trustworthy his site is. Otherwise USD $452.50 shipped on eBay.

Since you're in Adelaide, did you just call someone like Tonkins or Adrad? Adrad are Koyo dealers too.

Although I'm rapidly finding out that even with trade accounts a lot of this stuff is cheaper overseas...

Way cheaper. Just rang a place that Adrad referred me to and not only could he not find a part, I asked for a ball park price on a R33 Koyo full alloy radiator (that was what he was trying to sell me despite saying "V35, G35" over and over and over) which was $900.

Tonkins as in the car audio place?

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
