I am looking for Nismo part # 21200-RS580. The cheapest I have found is $55. I am hoping that someone can enlighten me on any good Nismo part sources. Thanks in advance.

Do they have an application for 4th gen?

 

are there benefits to having a NISMO over an OEM?

Oh ok thanks for the number. I tried submitting a parts request online, but nobody has replied in two business days. So I will give them a call.

Would they know the name "Aaron"? Or do I just say, I am Aaron from Maxima.org? Thanks for the heads up.

1MAX2NV, I have never seen a low degree thermostat for the 4th gen Maxima. But if you are interested in lowering your thermostat opening temp, then check out what Jime did a long time ago. If you remove your Tstat and add in a spacer, the Tstat will actually open earlier than stock. I would look into that and do some experimenting in a pot of hot water and a nice thermometer. Other than that, I really don't know what your options are for a lower Tstat. But keep in mind that a lower Tstat won't help in the Maxima unless you have an upgraded cooling system. That means, a better radiator, a good coolant additive (ProBlend 40 below Stops Overheating), manual cooling fans switch, or upgrade cooling fans. Those things go a long ways in cooling the Maxima. But, if you have a stock cooling system, then a lower Tstat won't help. It will still heat up to the normal operating temperature.

 

you met frank in vegas last time, i'm sure he remembers you. Just refresh his memory.

don't do the parts online request, its not really efficient and you could get quoted msrp

 

Ohhh, Frank Frank! I gotcha. I will give him a call. Thanks.
