350GT V36 Thermostat

[Elcid]

Hey folks,

I'm trying to get a replacement for my thermostat. It's does not seem to open consistently. Sometimes temp raises above normal before opening, radiator resovoir fills.

 

I know our part number is 21200-JK20A.

 

There are a couple of Mishimoto ones that are not exact fit.

This one's enclosure is too thin. (SKU: MMTS-350Z-07),

This one runs too cold and in winter engine constantly tries to warm up. (MMTS-370Z-10L)

 

Good read :

I'll ring the stealership tomorrow to see if they might have the part.

Does anyone have any leads on procuring a thermostat?

Thanks!

Not taking the risk I have ordered from Nissan CBR. They are shipping the part from Nissan VIC.

Items ordered for a total cost of $110.95  :

21200-JK20A -Thermostat

1305031U00 - Gasket 

 

Will keep you posted on the fitment.

The parts fit perfectly. You will need to use a little grey silicone RTV to keep the gasket in place while re-assembling.
