Z436 is wrong.. I advised ryco years ago, but they never bothered changing anything on their webpage. Z445 is the correct part.

Z547 has the same thread and seal size, but is 20mm longer. So if you have the space (the V35 does), it will also fit.

It's listed as z445 on their site.

Interesting, when I check it only lists the V35, no V36, and still shows the Z436.

If you search for 350z or 370z it is correct.

I am having my oil changed for the first time, and I saw your post. Looking at the Z445, on Ryco, it actually says it interchangeable with the Z436, so maybe thats why they didnt bother to correct it.

I have purchased both the Z436ST AND the Z547ST with instructions for the mechanics to try the Z547ST (ie the bigger one) first. Doing quick calcs, I think there would be about 50% more filter surface area on the bigger one (assuming 10mm of case height on both is for the mechanics of securing the filter in place; ie 5mm at top and 5mm bottom). Here are some photos showing the two in comparison. The only visible difference in the photos are because one is higher and thereby closer to the lens. But the 1mm difference in diameter of the seal is totally not discernible to the naked eye.

But, yeah, the big one is notable bigger. Thanks!

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.

      Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
