Radiator: CSF or Mishimoto?

Here is the another thing to consider as some unfortunate folks found out. Unless you water temperature spikes while you are losing water you will never see a change in water temperature when the tank has gone dry....because the temp gauge is reading the ambient temperature and without warning your engine goes boom!

One of the reasons I installed an aftermarket water temp gauge. The sensor is in the upper radiator hose.

Me too but boy was it a ********** to get that silicone hose on with the fitting in it.

This is not just for the 370z, it is for many other cars also. The 300zxtt and 300zx from 1990 to 1996 were the same way.
