Radiator support question
After reading around it seems that these radiator cracks are a common thing with Maximas. What I was wondering is if this is around the same spot as some of you that had the same issue (the Nissan logo, where all the silicone is).
Ordered a replacement already, silicone is just a temporary fix until it comes in. So leave out the talk about half *** fixes please. Just wondering about the location of your radiator cracks.

If they are all failing at the same spot, where they thin the plastic to put their name, they should be doing something to correct it. The previous owner of my car kept meticulous service records. This will be the third radiator for this car. But the first non-Nissan radiator so maybe I'll have more luck.

New radiator came in yesterday, so it's flush and replace time. While I have it out is there anything other than hoses and thermostat that I should check? You all know these engines like the back of your hands and ran into stuff I'd never think of.
The radiator supports look good, just a little surface rust. I'll sand and hit them with a little VHT.

I'd check all of your water lines. I just replaced all of mine (including some hard lines). The short elbow piece on mine was literally soaking through and the steel oil cooler line was almost completely rusted through on my max. Just give everything a once over.
