Of those two choices, it will be 1.1bar- that's about 15psi.

1.9bar is almost 30psi, which is wAY too high.

I thought they were closer to 0.9bar though- which is ~13psi.

it's listed in the FSM I'm sure.

If you are looking to go higher, get a 300zx TT cap...it is like 5x cheaper than a Nismo one and is almost the same relief pressure.

You could have asked this same question in your other post. It's obvious you're still having cooling system issues. BTW a higher pressure cap will not resolve your problem.
