Some info to share after a bit of research:

The updated Nissan OEM part number for my 2007, V36 350GT is 214934GA0A (old part number is 21493EH10A) - Circa $100 to $200 AUD dependant on brand/quality

The interchangeable part is (as seen here: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004459559212.html) : 1355A408 (Cooling Fan Control Module For Mitsubishi Lancer 02-06 ) - Circa $30-40 (AUssie stock and free delivery) example : https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/153550014872

Both these parts look identical, however I'll be purchasing the MIsubishi part number. The OEMs supplier is the same for Nissan/Infiniti/Mitsubishi - Calsonic Kansei part# 21493

 

FYI My fan controller needs changing as the fan is always on. 

Happy DIY-ing folks!

Following this as Im having the same issue at the moment. I didn't realise they were on for so long, now one of the motors squeaks as it winds down when turning the car off. I was looking at one from a 2011 wreck, but the yard is taking forever to give me a price lol.

Lol, will keep you posted mate.

If I recall right the squeaks can be solved the using a long straw nozzled spray grease , spraying straight into the fan motor.

I dont know where we are talking about or followed the thread, but if its electrical, PTFE lubricant may be better. You can get it from JayCar.

Note, WD40 is not a lubricant. It is "Water Displacement 40". It will also dissolve grease and fall away & the area will "dry up". It just happens to provide a very temporary apparent lubricant action.

 

I personally think it evil as it gives an immediate impression something is lubricated, but it will actually make it even worse in the long run. I now use the PTFE spray (tiny plastic marbles) where most would use WD40.

Thanks a lot for that info, I had no idea. Did a quick search and WD40 do a ptfe. Would this be suitable?

I dont know. I haven't really followed the thread and thus dont understand the use, I just have a knee jerk reaction to people using WD40, and had no idea WD40 did a PTFE one or ever used it. My can from JayCar has lasted me for years, and so is my first and only can. I did buy another can once for someone else who had a temp car with a very squeaky fan belt, and the WD40 he used lasted for 1 drive where as the PTFE went on working.

I originally got this stuff to also use near electricals, which reading the WD40 version, has no mention specifically at bunnings blurb. To be clear, I dont actually know which would be better. However, JayCar is cheaper, specifically meant to work near electronics (ie not conductive) AND you still get more. Also, I just notice it does explicitly suggest use in automotive cases.

And to be clear, maybe the grease still might be a better option. I know I use it for my garage Door tracks.

Hey Awsam,

 

The replacement worked perfect. Exact hardware match and works well now. No constantly ON fans. Checked when the engine was cold, with (both fans on) and without A/C (fans off) - works well. Will be confirming that the fans turn on when the engine gets hot too. Should be fine, will report back if not. 

Use this vid for detail of removal process :

Happy DIY-ing!

Fan turns on perfect! So all good

Just an update. Got that part in, plastic was brittle and one of the clips broke pretty easily. Still went together fine, and my fans are running as they should now

*update* while working on something else, I found that the bottom plug that goes to the Drivers side fan was loose. Left fan was not working. Please ensure you use extra force to push the plug in. Once secure, it will be hard to pull out.

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.
