I had a quick search online, can't find it - I could probably dig out my reciepts and go through them, but maybe give your local nissan dealer a call and see if they can help first as I've recently moved and it could ba a bit of a hassle!!

I brought an alloy 3 core radiator off eBay, bf xr8 fan, magna temp sensor (85deg on 80deg off) and some martini racing red coolant. Not once did my engine go past 85deg. Best 450 I spent on my car
